Vette(s): 1972 T-Top 350 auto, matching numbers,Blue, ac

May be we should just call it a C3 since it appears to have parts from all the years 68-82. Except I have never seen a 350 with a front Oil breater tube - like a 327

It still not a Hundi - and some one is probably happy and proud - let them Enjoy

you guys know what its like to own a vette, the poor guy has been hosed. probably a first time owner. it doesn't look bad????? but he gets to say he owns a vette even if it is a parts display. i just hope it runs good enough for him to feel dried off.

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!

Owing a C3 is always a good thing. Even a mismatched one. I just hope the owner and new owner knows what it is, and doesn't pay too much. For the right price, someone could be very happy with that car.

I agree, although I wouldn't want to own it. I would rather see a decent looking "piece at a time" car such as this than a total disaster with no hope of bringing back. At least this one is alive and can yet be restred.

Perhaps the buyer was seduced by the impressive, subliminal description. This car is "SUPER EYE CATCHING," "SEXY," "BEAUTIFUL BRONZE," "AWESOME," "TURNS HEADS . . .," and "BODY IN EXCELLENT CONDITION." Sounds like the latest review of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Calendar. I think the seller is a marketing director for a Fortune 500. An excellent and successful campaign. This guy could sell dog poo to a street cleaner and make him love it.
