Well we will go about 5:00 and if I spend and hour, I would say 7:30, 8:00. I don't think I would be able to take it home. I would be writing a check and I am sure they would want to wait until it cleared before they handed it over, which is going to kill me, I can't buy something and not walk away with it. Disapprove

If the Orange one doesn't work out for you and you want me to look at the Sky Blue or the Corvette Tan I can do that, They are about an hour from my home in oppisite directions, Both have thing I like about them,

I like the Sky Blue because it is a private owner for several years. (and it is practically white) I like knowing it is from the Fishers area because most of the homes and neighborhoods are very well cared for, Which looks to be the same of this car.

I like the tan car because it is a not often seen color with lower production numbers. The hand painted pin stripes are another nice touch. I also think with the camel interior it makes for a good color combo.


I am not sure either one jumps out and says buy me to me but then again this is for you and needs to fit your criteria.

So wit dat n mind da ball be n yer court lil Missy....

Happy Hunting......

 Did you ever check into the one JPGLYNN had? A '72 'chromie' in decent shape close to your price range would be a much better investment, (and look better too LOL). Georgia ain't that far and would certainly be worth the trip if the Vette was right. IMHO. ....Or was it red? LOLlonghorn2942008-08-03 11:29:19


   I know the voices aren't real, but they have some pretty cool ideas...

Can I hit that little report button on you for cruel and usual punishment TongueTongueTongue
 
Actually I didn't look at the whole added of the Tan one so I didn't see the close up pictures and didn't see he is will to go down in to the $15,000's. It looks in great shape and the pin stripping is nice. I have always been a sucker for pin stripping. 98% of my cars have all been original in some sort of way and now I drive a '05 gold T&C which you see every time you turn your head Tongue Oh and I like the luggage rack too.
 
Actually, if you wouldn't mind, I would like you to check out the Tan one for me. It looks like a good deal. I can go that far for a car if I know it is in good shape and I am mostly going to buy it.
 
You people are too nice. But I guess if I knew what to look at in a Vette I would do the same thing but still, now a days you don't see that anymore. You know how screwed I would have been buying one without the help here. I would probably have a rusted piece of crap and paid $15,000 for it. Thank you all again, I so appreciate it. Hug

Yes I did but what do you guys consider close? Not to make myself look bad but there is a couple of things with going long distance.
 
For one, I don't know if you guys notice, but I am a woman, believe or not, I really am and I have the stretch marks to prove it. Going to a state where I don't know anyone and going to some strange person's house alone, well isn't the best idea. I don't even want to go to someone's house alone up here. It's a ashame I have to say that but it's the way things are now a days.
 
Two, if I was to bring someone with me, that would tie up all their time. I have a 6 year olf son that I just spend 11 days in a car camping with and those where not straight through, long day drives. I do have my friend and my husband doesn't care, I mean trusts me, I don't know how thrilled he would be about me going to a state far away with him over night.
 
So do you guys understand why it is so hard for me to go long distances?
