Why do I love this so much?

[zeitgeist57]

DEATH. TRAP.

[Geeto67]

DEATH. TRAP.

 

yes...but oh those smokey burn out, wheel standing, overpowered and underchassis-ed, moments right before death. Totally. Worth. It.

 

Why do I love this so much?

 

because it is so janky it's awesome. Plus it's like the 60's version of an ls swapped RX7.

I would actually buy that if it was a manual. That's as clean as they come.

You'd be surprised how clean some of them are.

 

Here's another one. Wants 12.5k though. 3800 SC with a F23 5 Spd.

 

here's the build thread. Can't find the CL ad though.

It drives me nuts that the early corvette market has gotten so bad that this seems almost reasonable:

Not to mention it's sold without a title. He states the VIN is on the cowl, someone is really going to spend that kind of money on that rough of a car without a title?

And the frame is a 62 vette while the body is a 54.

surprisingly enough the no title thing is not a deal breaker. In NY anything 1971 and older is transferable registration and all you need is a bill of sale and a willingness to pay taxes on it. Maine is the same way, and in NH you don't even need to be a resident, you can get a transferable registration through the mail. But you are right for $10K I kinda expect someone else to jump through the paperwork hoops.

 

The interesting thing about this is....1954 corvettes don't have a "Cowl vin". the vin plate is attached to the door frame where the hinges are. Chevy didn't start using a data plate on these cars until 1963. So if the vin is in the cowl it has been moved.

 

The glass is so rough on those early cars that it looks like kit car stuff (the '53s actually had the mat weave show through the paint). There were plenty of kit cars made in the 1980's of these cars (the most notable one is the CMC cars made on 1968-1979 chevy nova chassis, and since the bodies were made off originals, people used them to restore older cars. So you could end up with a kit car body and a nova vin plate on your c1 chassis.

 

And the frame is a 62 vette while the body is a 54.

 

As for the 1962 frame, well all the C1 corvette frames are pretty much the same with minor differences (1953-1954 would have 6cyl engine mounts, where as 55-62 would have v-8 mounts). 62 might have a frame vin but that would be the major giveaway.

 

Still, 1950's vettes are such a $40K and up proposition that if you wanted to build a hot rod out of original pieces $10K is still pretty cheap. you can easily pay that for a new press molded body alone.

As a kid of the late '80s into the '90s, I approve of this collection. However, his "estimates" are way high to say the least. It's quite the ensemble, though.

[Richard Cranium]

91 Geo Storm with 280,000 worth $3,000? Does it have $2,500 in the glove box?

Um yeah I'm just about an hour north of there until the end of the month so if someone wants to buy that I could probably be persuaded to drive that home for you. ;-)

not as many of these around as there used to be....and at that price it's no wonder why.

 

 

When I was a kid there was a guy around the corner that had a daytona yellow 1969 Z/28 on a lifted blazer chassis. It was a real DZ302 z/28. Used to see an orange one around too and a GTO as well. Haven't seen one in years.

I have always hated the classics on the old k5 frames.

Not a freak, so much, but the listing is entertaining. Found on Reddit:
