$400k spent ???

I don't think so!

Asking $169k

I don't think so!

I hope this is not a forum members car! He say's its a convertible with removable top! It's a coupe! He's trying to ask big bucks with a handful of mobile phone pics!

"NOUTHING TO SPEND NOT EVEN A DOLLAR "

Seems it comes with free petrol, too.

"COMPLETLY RESTORED BY THE CORVETTE SPECIALIST FROM BOTTOM AND UP"

Okay, which of you Corvette Specialists is responsible?

"NEVER TO BE SEEN ON EBAY AUCTION SITE OR ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD AGAIN"

He really thinks it will sell!

;58

I'm tempted to go and check it out -- just to meet the seller.

Sold for $169k ... bollocks.

Have a look at the purchasing history of the alleged "buyer": DVDs and china dolls.

Probably his mother.

Seller has no prior eBay history and joined yesterday.

Relisted - with a higher price!

demonx · « **Reply #16 on:** February 14, 2009, 03:55:28 PM »

Just sent this msg:

Just checking in case there is an error - it appears there is one too many zero's in the price. Can you confirm this for me please?

Sorry Yoyvet, I would love to, but I'm too far away.
