Is anyone familiar with this ebay seller? He/they have lots of stuff that appears interesting. Anyone who has done business with them, comments are appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Ke,

For some reason, this seller has a lot of nice looking Vettes for sale at what seem to be very reasonable prices. Some seem to be real finds.

I was looking at a '69 with a NOM 327 and I gave him a call about it. I'm not sure if he was a little overwhelmed, but when I called him (Mike), he was not the most enthushiastic salesman that I ever spoke too. He was open to a private inspection & he does sell the cars off the auction block. Overall, I felt pretty comfortable talking to him.

He has 2 locations, one in Illinois & one in Huntington Beach, CA. My suggestion would be to call him at the number he provides and feel him out.

Good luck,

Anthony

Thanks for the input. I may do that, especially if I get more positive feedback about him. Unfortunately, he's a long haul from me, but he has a car in New York now, too, which is a little closer! All of the Vette dealers in the Southeast seem to be in Florida!

Seems to me there was an outfit in the Atlanta area that was big into sports cars with a good selection of Vettes. I'll try to locate their website address and if I find it I'll forward it to you.

I haven't dealt with them so don't know anything about their business practices/reputation/etc., but they usually have a good selection of nice looking cars.

Happy hunting...!!!

I know nothing about "Unlimited Vettes", there is a place outside Atlanta that seems to have some nice cars - I'll see if I can find the name .

The name itself should have been a dead giveway.

Hello everyone,

I am new to this site. Just signed up a few minutes ago. I purchased my '73 from Unlimitedvettes about a year ago. The vette was listed on ebay. He sold it to me direct. I live about 75 miles for Huntington Beach so he let me check out the car in person. His descriptions in the auctions are accurate. He is very honest with his assesment of the vehicles. I am very happy with my purchase. I have not had a single problem. I would purchase from him again. The only neutral thing I have to say is he does "title jumping" (i think that is the term) The title he handed over to me was from the previous owner. He is like a ghost seller. I had no problems at all getting the new title in my name. I feell his prices are very reasonable. My '73 I bought from him was about $1500 less than comparables listed on ebay at the time. The only things I had to do were minor interior touch ups such as missing screws and broken parking brake console. Let me know if you have anymore questions about my purchase.

I know that in some states title jumping is illegal what I don't know is if it is illegal for just the seller or if it is also illegal for the buyer. Might be worth looking into before you run that risk.

Good info to have. I'll look into the title thing. I am pleased to hear that business with him was good! I am eyeballing 2 of his cars on ebay right now. It's depressing to be without...

I purchased a set of slotted mags from Unlimitedvettes off of ebay in March of this year. They were advertised a coming of of a 1970 Corvette. I e-mailed him before bidding and he assured me they were 15x8 wheels. I won the auction and went to his home in Huntington Beach, about 50 miles from my home. The wheels didn't look like 8" to me, but he once again assured me he had measured them. I paid him and took them home. I measured them at home and found them to be 7". I called him regarding this and he gladly refunded my money (through Pay Pal), but I still had to drive back to his house to return them.
I also saw some of the cars he had for sale, a very clean 69 and a 71, both coupes. he also had (not for sale) a 67 427 tri-power coupe.
I would say he is alright to deal with. He had no problem refunding my money, gave me positive feedback and has contacted me when parts he has come across are available. His prices are not really out of line either.
