I ran across this interesting car by accident while making some repairs at a clients house who could no longer drive, I wanted to post it up just because of the price I paid for it....

$1000 US

This is exactly how I found it.

Yes that's right a 1968 corvette convertible with a four speed and 350 ci V8 in the condition you see in this photo. Although not all original, I think it's a great bargain Image

Gary yes I did :crazy: yes indeed Mick, if I paid low retail on this I would never have had the chance to get it home. I've put some money into it since the purchase three years ago. Image

I'll sell you one of mine for that. . . . . Mind you, you'd have to shrink down to 28mm and the doors don't open :haha:
Let's see, 28mm is 1/64th scale, 1/64th of $2,000 is just over $31. Nah, still too much. Maybe next time? :haha: :haha: :/ 8)
