Spotted while out today

I spotted this sleeping under a sheet of plastic in a friend's building today. He bought it from the original owner three years ago. It only has 44,000 miles and has been off the road since 1974. It has a 4 speed and the dealer installed track pack with 4.11 gears. Nice solid car that just needs a good bath inside and out. The window sticker is still in the glove box! Too bad it's not for sale. )-:

Nice One..I've always had a soft spot for White over a Red office....That used to be a Corvette staple in the 50's. I suspect he would sell for a very large bag of coins..
thanks for sharing that.

I tried to purchase it but he gave his word to the family of the deceased owner that it would be kept in the family. I guess we just need to become family. Lol.

poor car, it deserves a better owner that will actually drive it.

Obviously the motor was at least repainted or? and the tricarb manipulated but all easy fixes. Damn sweet car.
