Description of 1961 Chevrolet Corvette

WHAT A GREAT FIND. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED FROM THE OWNER OF THE CHEVY DEALER IN DAYTON OHIO BY THEODORE FLORIDIS IN 1961. ( see the copy of the original title) HE BOUGHT THIS CAR AS AN EVERY DAY DRIVER . IN 1994 THEODORE DECIDED THAT THE OLD GIRL NEEDED A BODY OFF RESTO. THE BODY OFF WAS PERFORMED BY BERNHARDTS OF DAYTON OHIO (who are members of the national corvette certification board and bloomington gold judging staff and still in business today) I HAVE THE RECEIPTS . PHOTOS AND ITEMIZED BILL. HE THEN HAD AN N. C. R. S. JUDGE DO AN APPRAISAL ON 4/24/95 AND IT WAS VAUED AT $43. 00 (I have the original appraisal letter) THIS CAR HAS SUCH A STRAIGHT BODY. DOOR GAPS AND HOOD SEEMS ARE DEAD ON. THE CARS STILL HAS ITS ORIGINAL 283 MOTOR AND ITS MANUEL 3SPD TRANSMISSION AND NEVER HAD A COVE COLOR. THE UNDER SIDE LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE TOPSIDE. THE CAR WAS SOLD TO THE SECOND OWNER ON AUGUST 12 2004 ( I have a copy of the original title signed to the second owner) AND HE HAD IT FOR 11 YEARS. I WOULD CATEGORIZE THE CAR AS AN ABOVE . ABOVE . AVERAGE DRIVER. IT HAS SOME CHIPS AND STRESS CRACKS BUT THE PAINT IS STILL INCREDIBLE. INTERIOR IS BEAUTIFUL NO RIPS IN THE SEATS OR CRACKS ON THE DASH PAD. THE CHROME IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE RADIO IS THE ORIGINAL WONDERBAR AND STILL WORKS AND THE CLOCK IS A QUARTZ REPLACMENT AND KEEPS PERFECT TIME . THE TOP HAS A SMALL TEAR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE (1/2 inch) THE CAR STILL HAS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL GLASS. I ALSO HAVE A PICTURE OF THEADORE SITTING IN THE CAR THE DAY HE SOLD IT TO GLENN MATERNIAK THE SECOND OWNER. THIS CAR IS THE BEST DRIVING STRAIGHT AXEL VETTE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. IT DRIVES SO SMOOTH AND QUIET. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CALL ALAN 4072885311 DEPOSITS ARE NON REFUNDABLE.
