There is a 1978 Corvette for sale that has 13 original miles on it for about fifty grand.
The guy bought it and put it in his barn.
I t is covered in dust and still has the window sticker in it and a gas reciept for seven and a half gallons of gas he paid for with five dollars.
Original down to the factory battery and it started right up.
I don't have that kind of money but I did just trade a 1995 F-150 for an 80 El Camino.
It has electrical issues but I have already traced most of them down to the printed cuircit board behind the instrument cluster that was demolished by some rookie mechanic.
Starts and runs good, has an Edelbrock four barrel and STILL gets better mileage than that damn ford with a straight six.
Kind of a two tone, flat black and grey primer, I call it the Rat Mobile.
Went to a wrecking yard and got an entire instrument cluster that even has a clock in it for 65 bucks.
I should be out there putting it in as I type, it ain't raining but I am going to wait a few more minutes.
Hey, I actually have insurance now.
The things ya gotta put up with when ya get married.
Btw, 1978 was the first year a Vette paced at Indy.
