You know what they say, Micheal, if a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

Vette(s): Sold them Both
It's all good Barry.  Knew exactly what I was getting into.  Because of the price.  And figured that at the worst it would be a parts car.  I had my mind set on building a '69, pretty much from the time I was 12 years old.  Have not really had issues finding what I needed as for a good car to build from.  Now I actually have 3 good cars sitting in the shop.  All '69 models.    But the first one is the main project.  Much more fun to have one and to work on and one to drive in the process.  Getting ready to set the body back on the frame as soon as I finish the body wiring.  The other two were good rebuilders and the prices were good too.  And it is always nice to have a complete car sitting near by for reference as things go together.
Thanks
Mike

As long as you're happy, all is good. When you go in with eyes wide open, there's not many surprises! Good luck!

Vette(s): 1975 convertible,with the hard top and power streering.it a 350 L48 with auto trans. the color is light blue.
From the wheels on it looks like it's been sitting from around the late seventy(Dukes of Hazard style wheels).Also I agree the bird cage looks rusted from the pictures.Whole lot of work ahead on that one.
