I was wondering if anyone knew anything about Gateway Classic Cars in Fairmont City, IL. http://www.gatewayclassiccars.com/
 
They are a distance from my house but always have a lot of nice Corvettes listed. I really don't want to take a 6 hour drive down there if they are not a decent place. So if anyone knows anything, I would really appreciate it
 
Thanks

They have been around awhile. You should at least contact them through the website or call them. They always have nice Vettes, although most of the Vettes I see on the site seem to be automatics. I think they can locate what you are looking for. Aaron19762008-08-09 09:49:41

Bought mine from them...

I had a positive experience but I knew what I was doing and looking for. Prices are a bit high (other dealers are much higher) but deals can be had.

We have a couple members local, maybe you can get one of them to take a look before you make the drive...

 I'll be in the area for Funfest and could take a look in September...

Actually I should be down at Funfest, so I guess I could take a look myself.

You MUST go to Funfest.
You will see every Vette ever made and I am sure you will enjoy meeting some C3VR members.
You might even see your dream Vette for sale.
Bring your checkbook.LOL
