1998 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
The Owner of this pristine, immaculate 1998 C5 Corvette Convertible has built, restored or helped other friends with custom projects, during over fifty-years, involving some 27 projects, 19 of which were his own variety of car, truck or panel projects. He says this Corvette is his last For Sale, as now in his senior years, priced conservatively, and fair, with lots of additional parts and tools for this 25-year-old collector “American Dream Machine” Corvette, (Road and Track Magazine quoted reference). One of Corvette’s most popular design years!
Every function within the car remains in perfect working condition. Everything! The body as clean, clear and straight as any newer vehicle on the road. Corvettes are generally a “spoiled-priority” by their owners! Any faulty or failing item has always been immediately replaced with new, though there has never been any major concern with the car yet to date. Guaranteed!
