C3 ... Need advice for a sad day

Re: C3 ... Need advice for a sad day

No doubt the option list is not his fault, but the way the web ad form is laid out. You check off all items the car has, and then it lists them as options, even though I've never seen a Corvette without bucket seats.

I have seen C3 coupes without T-tops, but only because the owner did away with them.

To add, if you ever put it on eBay, and have room, list ALL the numbers. You can't tell too much, but you sure can blabber too much on eBay. And most definitely include the engine pad.

Say which codes and dates are correct, and be honest about what isn't.

I think you have a great start. I would include pictures of each quarter panel and multiple photos of the engine compartment from different angles showing close-ups of the various components. Photos of the trim plate, etc would be nice. Keep it up.

Great start, if fact I think you hit a home run. Great Docs, nice engine detail.

Re: PS

You already accomplished your goal by getting your ad more views and PC time at no extra expense. Good job. Your car is very nice and will sell very fast no matter where you advertize because you put it on the money. I wish I had some extra jing for your car is a good buy. I am sure pro team will be calling you!!! Save your money on the extra pics, Serious buyers will call you for more pics no matter how many you put on the net. Sorry you have to sell your car, been there done that....

Re: C3 ... Need advice for a sad day

In addition, a couple of things I notice:

1. Remove the AutoZone sticker from the alternator.
2. Any chance you have a repro or old original radiator cap for it? Anything even from a current GM vehicle? The red tabbed Stant one looks, well, like AutoZone. Even if you sell it with the current cap, I'd switch for the pics.
3. The engine pic is a good start, but it and your center dash cluster picture are too dark. Remove the t-tops on an overcast day, and get some good pics of the interior and the engine compartment. Use a little fill-in flash if you need to, but I'd rather just go for a longer exposure time. Flash can make too many shadows.
