BELIEVED TO BE A 4 OWNER CAR. WE HAVE SPOKEN TO THE PAST TWO OWNERS BOTH OF WHICH ARE AVID CORVETTE GUYS. THIS CAR SAT FOR 15+ YEARS IN A CLIMATE CONTROLLED CORVETTE COLLECTION. WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM OWNER 4, ALL THAT WAS NEEDED TO MAKE IT ROAD WORTHY WHERE NEW BRAKES, HOSES, FLUIDS ETC. IT WAS IN FAIR CONDITION BUT HAD AN OLDER REPAINT SO WE DECIDED TO STRIP IT DOWN INSIDE AND OUT AND HAVE THE 100 NO HIT BODY REPAINTED IN ITS CORRECT FATHOM GREEN - CODE 983, USING ONLY THE BEST PAINT & MATERIALS AVAILABLE. THE STUNNING SHOW QUALITY REPAINT WAS DONE USING A PPG DELTRON BASE COAT - CLEAR COAT THAT WAS LATER COLOR SANDED AND BUFFED TO A DEEP RICH, WET-LOOK SHINE. WE THEN INSTALLED ALL NEW WEATHER-STRIPPING THROUGHOUT. THE CHROME IS ALL ORIGINAL AND BEAUTIFULLY PLATED. ALL THE GLASS IS ORIGINAL AS WELL AND IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION. THE FINISHED PRODUCT IS LIKE LOOKING INTO A MIRROR, IT IS ABSOLUTELY DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS FROM EVERY ANGLE AS IT SHOULD BE FOR A CAR OF THIS CALIBER. THE INTERIOR: WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE CARPETING, THE INTERIOR IS ALL-ORIGINAL RIGHT DOWN TO THE DOOR PANELS AND SEAT COVERS WHICH HAVE THE FACTORY BUILT DATES STAMPED ON THEM. PLS SEE PICTURES PROVIDED. WHEN THE CAR ARRIVED, THE CARPET WAS STAINED AND A BIT FADED SO WE REPLACED THE OLD CARPET WITH A NEW NOS 80/20 LOOP AND PADDING SET AND BEGAN TO REMOVE AND RESTORE EVERY PART OF THE INTERIOR ONE AT A TIME ON THE BENCH. THE GAUGE CLUSTER IS ALL ORIGINAL AS WELL INCLUDING THE CLOCK WHICH WAS INOPERATIVE SO WE REMOVED IT AND RESTORED ON THE BENCH AS WELL. NOW THE ORIGINAL FACTORY GAUGES WORK AS THEY SHOULD INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL CLOCK. THE CENTER CONSOLE AND ALL THE ORIGINAL INTERIOR PANELS WERE REMOVED, CLEANED AND RE-DYED IN THE CORRECT 421 CODE SADDLE AND REINSTALLED. THIS AMAZING RESTORATION WAS LED AND PERFORMED BY A 30-YEAR VETERAN CORVETTE MASTER TECH BY THE NAME OF MANNY BUSTILLO WHICH ALSO GOES BY THE NICK NAME VETTEITALL. WE STARTED OFF WITH A FRAME AND BIRDCAGE THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY ROCK SOLID NOT A SPECK OF RUST EVER. WE THEN REMOVED EVERTHING FROM THE FRAME AND STARTED THE RESTORATION. o BRAKE CALIPERS WERE REBUILT AND ALL NEW RUBBER AND STEEL LINES WHERE REPLACED o ADDED NEW BUSHINGS TO THE CAMBER STRUT RODS o LEAF SPRING WAS STRIP AND PAINTED TO FACTORY SPECS. o REAR-END RECEIVED ALL NEW BEARINGS AND SEALS. o TRANSMISSION, DRIVESHAFT AND HALF SHAFT WITH ALL NEW U-JOINTS o ALL NEW BUSHINGS ON THE REAR AND FRONT o FRONT END RECEIVED ALL NEW TIE RODS, UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS o ALL NEW FRONT AND REAR SWAY BAR CUSHIONS AND BUSHINGS ALL THE ORIGINAL BORN WITH HARDWARE; BOLTS, NUTS, WASHERS ETC WERE CLEANED, WIRE-BRUSHED & REFURBISHED. WE THEN APPLIED THE CORRECT FACTORY STENCIL MARKINGS AND TECH-INPECTIONS MARKS ON EVERY ITEM. SEE THE BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES. THESE STENCIL MARKINGS INCLUDE, THE CHASSIS NUMBERS, WHICH WERE APPLIED TO A FULLY STRIPPED AND PAINTED RUST FREE CHASSIS AND DONE IN THE CORRECT GM BLACK. THE FIBER OPTICS ENDS WERE CLEANED AND TESTED. BOTH FRONT HEADLIGHT WASHERS ARE PRESENT AND WORKING. THE CORRECT PAINT COLORS WERE USED ON EACH ITEM ALL BOLTS, NUTS, WASHERS ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE BAY WERE PAINTED IN SATIN CLEARED TO PREVENT DISCOLORATION AND FUTURE SURFACE RUSTING.
