If you like muscle cars. this car will definetly get your blood flowing. This baby HAULS!!!
Very low to the ground. it handles like a Go Kart. the steering is very tight. and precise. a slight turn here and a slight turn there and it's there. there's no swaing back and forth.

Exterior and Interior of car has been freshly maticulously restored. I decided to restore it ONLY because it was a 4 speed. It runs great. nice and smooth running. I have not messed with the engine. It has always passed smog without a hitch.

Gas milage is about 19MPG

I've owned the car since 2005 and it's been ALLOT of fun. runs GREAT. very dependable.
The restoration was finished 2 years ago. It's a VERY Clean car. has NEVER been in any kind of wreck. perfectly straight and get ALLOT of looks.

I am selling it. because. I just bought a 69 Firebird project car. which I am going to restore and clone it into a 69 Trans Am. I need the money from the Vette to finish the Trans Am

This is a $3000 paint job. Color is a beautiful Chevy Marina Blue
Was painted with 3 base coats of PPG Marina Blue (Metallic). then immediately shot with 3 coats of PPG Concept 2000 Clear. after 48 hours of drying the entire car was color sanded and buffed out to give you that deep show car gloss. It is absolutely beautiful.

Minor problems with car: Cruise Control doesn't work. wouldn't cost much to get it working again. for me. with a 4 speed? Never would use it.
Trany has a minor leak that drips 1 or 2 drops onto the exhaust system. to repair the leak the tranny would have to be removed. Not that big an issue. No puddles or anything like that.
Wipers work fine. but they don't squirt water.

Has a new power antenna. but stoopped working a few months back.
Outside of that. it runs GREAT! Always passes smog without a problem.

I realize it's a HIGH milage car. but it's ALL highway miles. if you've been to California you'll know. to get anywere you have to be on a highway. You can easily put 150 miles per day on a daily driver. this was.
