This beautiful corvette was bought by my Grandpa toadd to his private collection about 12-15 years ago. It is like brand new with low miles and one of the nicest of its kind. Selling it now in order to downsize the collection.
About the collection:This car is apart of thePapa’s Toys Car Collectionlocated in Cornelius, Oregon. Started by John and Susan Davis in the 1980s, it was once of the largest collections in the Pacific Northwest of 180 street rods, classics, customs, racecars, and special interest vehicles ranging from the years 1922—1982. The collection is open to the public once a year where all proceeds go to Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. This year $22,000 was raised in a single day and over 700 other hot rods showed up to enjoy the day. Not a single car has ever been sold from the collection until less than five months ago when Susan decided it was time to downsize the collection and to a more manageable number and let other people enjoy the cars. We decided to sell 120 cars from the collection and have sold 60 of that already to excited locals in the Portland area.
General information about the cars:All cars in the collection have been stored for many years in a climate controlled, rodent free showroom and have been looked after by our mechanic. The cars that are up for sale were unplugged three years ago and put in a “sleep mode” for preservation and are sold as is. Though some haven’t ran in years, we have sold 60 and had no complaints after buyers have checked the brakes, fuel lines, hoses (what you would check on any old car) prior to driving it down the road.
