The next project.
My dad has know about this car for years. A 1963 corvette stingray convertible that was parked in the early 70s. Three weeks ago he gets a knock on the door. Its the owner of the corvette. He tells my father he wants to sell him the corvette that he will never finish it he's 84 and wants it to go to a good home. My dad 79 laughed and said you should of sold it to me years ago. Then my father tells the owner my Son may be interested. We arrange time to go look at the car. The owner started a restoration 25 years ago, he took the body off the frame and started a back yard restoration. Basically just painted over everything. Its a numbers matching 327 250 hp car. It looks like tranny has been apart at some point as it has a 64 tail housing. The car was purchased in 1970, driven to 1974 then parked. It has 54k. Its originally silver with dark blue interior.He acquired a bunch of new parts which made the purchase more appealing to me although it all has to come back apart again. Wife is pretty happy with the purchase to.
