1982 CORVETTE, $4,235.75 N RECEIPTS SPENT ON IT 2 MONTH'S AGO, PREVIOULY FLOODED

1982 Chevrolet Corvette Description

SO, HERE'S THE DEAL!

I got in the mood for an 80-82 vette!

And, I bought 2(bought this one locally).

Anyways, had been negotiating a DEAL on other one, found this one advertised locally, liked ALL OF THE $ THAT HAD JUST BEEN SPENT ON IT, thought deal wasn't happening on 1st one so bought this one, then ended up making deal on 2nd one still(it's white/red, I'm a RED color interior type of guy so it wins, am gonna keep it)!

Now, here's what/all I can tell u about this baby!

VERY INTERESTING CAR FOR SEVERAL REASONS!

#1, it's previous owner had passed away 2 year's ago and since 2000 the car had just sat inside of previous owner's garage.

And last year previous owner's widow decided to sell her house and did so this was sent to Corvette's of Houston where previous owner's daughter spent $4,235.75 on it!

FREAKING WOWWWWWWWW!!!!

Of course some things were needed from previously sitting BUT seriously, not rt at $4,300 worth of stuff?!

GR8 NEWS IS, IT HAS 4 BRAND NEW TIRE'S, BASICALLY ALL NEW BRAKE'S, A BRAND NEW RADIATOR, TUNE UP, AND ON AND ON/ETC.

AND, NOT EVEN 100 MLS HAVE BEEN PUT ON THE CAR SINCE ALLLLL OF THIS WORK HAD BEEN DONE TO IT!

I literally just took possession of it this morning(4 hour's ago), and here is what I noticed rt away.

Rt kick panel was missing so I just bought a correct blue color one here on eBay($50), 1 center cap is missing and emblems on other 3 r either missing or faded so I just bought a brand new set on her($70), and I bought a new/vintage Corvette keychain for $20 that will be included in sale also(ALL OF THIS IS IN ROUTE).

PROS:

CAR RUNS/DRIVES GR8!!! NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, IT'S REALLY A GR8 RUNNING/DRIVING CAR!

SEAT'S HAVE BEEN REDONE AND THEY LOOK SUPER NICE(PROBABLY A $500.00 COST RT HERE).

CARPET LOOKS GR8 IN THE CAR(ONE LITTLETORN PIECE ON REAR CARGO CARPET, NO BIG DEAL THO).

MOTOR CARPARTMENT LOOKS GR8.

LEATHER WRAP STRG WHEEL OVERALL LOOKS GR8(NOT PERFECT BUT IS NICER THAN MOST).

DOOR PANEL'S LOOK GR8.

DASH LOOKS GR8(I C NO CRACKS).

WINDSHIELD LOOKS GR8(I C NO CRACK).

MIRRORED T-TOP'S LOOK GR8(IC NO CRACKS).

EVEN THOUGH IT HAS NO RADIO?, PANEL IS UNCUT(SO GR8 NEWS HERE).

RT CARPET TRIM PIECE UNDER CONSOLE IS LOOSE BUT I'LL TRY TO TUCK IT BACK IN?.

CONS:

HEADLIGHT'S R STUCK UP(BUT I HEAR THEM TRYING TO WORK VIA AN AIR SOUND, PROBABLY STUCK FROM SITTING SO LONG?).

SOME FADED PAINT AS SHOWN(MAINLY ON FRONT/REAR BUMPER'S, REST OF CAR IS VERY PRESENTABLE).

NO RADIO.

FUEL GAUDE I GUESS IS NOT WORKING(ALL OTHER GAUGES WORKO THO).

STEERING WHEEL SPOKE ON RT SIDE NEEDS TO BE REPAINTED(NO BIG DEAL, STRG WHEEL AS A WHOLE IS IN GR8 SHAPE, BETTER THAN MOST, TOUCHED SPOKE UP TODAY).

(KICK PANEL MISSING IS ON ITS WAY.)

(4 BRAND NEW CENTER CAP'S R ON THEIR WAY).

AC BELT IS ON AC COMPRESSOR BUT AC IS NOT COLD(COULD BE FREON OR MAY NEED A NEW COMPRESSOR?).

PWR DOOR JUMP, TRY TO MOVE BUT THEY MOVE SO SLOW I DON'T CONSIDER THEM "WORKING!"

PWR WINDOWS R NOT WORKING(NO CLUE WHAT'S GOING ON HERE NOR HAVE I CHECKED OUT, WAS CHECKING FUSES AND A 30 AMP METAL ONE IS BLOWN I THINK, CAN HERE IT MAKING A NOISE INSIDE WHENEVER I SHAKE IT, MAYBE THIS IS PROBLEM?).

PWR SEAT IS NOT WORKING(NO CLUE WHAT'S GOING ON HERE NOR HAVE I CHECKED OUT- FIXED IT, IT WAS UNPLUGGED, IT GOES BACK AND FORTH PERFECTLY NOT BUT THE RECLINER PART ISN'T FUNCTIONING, I THINK ITS THE SWITCH?).

DAUGHTER OF PREVIOUS OWNER TOLD ME THAT DOOR LOCK'S R HARD TO TURN AND FOR THIS SHE DOESN'T RECOMMEND LOCKING?(NO CLUE WHAT'S GOING ON HERE NOR HAVE I CHECKED OUT).

AGAIN, CAR IS SITTING ON A REBUILT SALVAGE/FLOOD DAMAGE TITLE BUT LOOK AT CARFAX REPORT SHOWN IN PICS, WHEN IT WAS GIVEN THIS BRANDED TITLE(FLOODED) AND JUST HOW LONG AGO IT WAS?!

POINT IS, IT DIDN'T JUST HAPPEN LAST WEEK!

ALSO, AND THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING POINT!

FOLLOW MILES READING VIA CARFAX REPORT.

IT'S IN THE TEEN'S AND THEN IT JUMPS TO 100K AND IN THE TEEN'S???!!!

OF COURSE BECAUSE OF ITS AGE TITLE SAYS EXEMPT AND I AM SELLING UNKNOWN BUT I JUST FIND THE ODOMETER READING INTERESTING THROUGH CARFAX!

FOR $5,850.00, MILES SHOULDBE WELL OVER 100K(THAT'S WHAT$5,850 IS GOING TO BUY U ALL DAY LONG BUT WHAT IF IT ACTUAL MILE'S???)!

AGAIN, LET'S ASSUME IT'S 119K MLS BUT....

PEOPLE, SERIOUSLY,DO THE MATH HERE!

CLOSE TO JUST 2 MONTH'S AGO RT AT $4,300 WAS SPENT ON THIS CAR IN REPAIRS/UPGRADES AND MY BUY IT NOW PRICE IS $5,850.00!

WHAT A "DEAL" THIS IS!!!

I HONESTLY JUST WANTED TO HELP OUT DAUGHTER OF PREVIOUS OWNER(NOW, SHE'S GOING THROUGH SOME SERIOUS HEALTH ISSUES WITH HER MOM AND SHE REALLY DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO DEAL WITH SELLING THIS CAR PLUS SHE HAD IT IN STORAGE BECAUSE SHE HAD NO PLACE TO KEEP IT AFTER COMING OUT OF SHOP) SO TRUST ME I'M NOT TRYING TO EVEN MAKE A HOME RUN HERE(PLUS A JUST DROPPED SOME CHANGE ON MISSING ITEMS IT NEEDED DRASTICALLY)!

IT IS WHAT IT IS, PLEASE BE SURE THAT U HAVEREAD EVERYTHING THAT I HAVE WRITTEN HERE ABOUT IT, I THRIVE ON HAVING PERFECT FEEDBACK AND I DON'T WANT TO EVER MISREPRESENT ANYTHING THAT I SELL!

SO, I TRY TO GIVE AS GOOD AS A DESCRIPTION AS POSSIBLE, BE AS HONEST AS POSSIBLE!

FOR ALLLLLL OF THE $ RECENTLY SPENT ON IT(WITH RECEIPT'S TO PROVE), I THINK IT'S REALLY AN AWESOME DEAL!

IF U HIT BUY IT NOW, AN IMMEDIATE $500.00 PAYPAL DEPOSIT WILL BE DUE AND THEN FULL BALANCE WILL BE DUE WITHIN 3 BUSINESS DAY'S(EITHER A BANK WIRE TRANSFER OR CASH IN PERSON).

AND, IF U NEED A FAST/REASONABLY PRICED AUTO TRANSPORTER I CAN RECOMMEND ONE.

THANKS!

NOTE TOO, DUMMY'S AT CORVETTE'S OF HOUSTON PUT 191 ON PAPERWORK WHENEVER THEY MEANT TO PUT 119K.

OH, AND LAST 2 PICS SHOW CAR IN DECEMBER, FIRST TIME COMING OUT OF A 16YEAR PLUS STORAGE(BEFORE BEING WORKED ON).

I MAY BE FORGETTING/LEAVING OUT A THING OR TWO(AFTER ALL, I'VE OWNED IT AT THIS POINT ONLY A FEW HOUR'S AND THIS IS AN OLDER VEHICLE) BUT FOR THE MOST PART I'VE DESCRIBED IT PRETTY WELL, I THINK!

AFTER DAY 2 OF OWNING IT, I MUST ADMIT THAT I LIKE IT EVEN MORE TODAY!

UNDERSIDE OF DASH LOOKS GREAT(SO I AM GUESSING IT NEVER SAW ANY WATER?).
