OK, a 2002 that had the front left fender, and door skin replaced. It also comes with NO top. Looks good from the pics. It's got 44k on it. I can have it at my house for 13k.
Thoughts?

For another $999 you can buy Ron Busche's white top from California. That would be the longest relay ever. I might even offer to run it from Memphis to Nashville for you.Comment

Re: Found one I can afford
I should have said no hard top. Rag top is fine.Comment

Re: Found one I can afford
Hard tops aren't that much. Most going for between $1,000 amd $1,500 if you look for it over time and aren't in a hurry for one..They are Here. Scotty, beam me up!IT'S 5 O'CLOCK SOMEWHEREVisit the TBN Store

Re: Found one I can afford
Actually 44k on any other ten year old car is low mileage. Is the car a toy or a daily
driver? Mine is just a toy and driven ninety-nine percent of the time as roadster. I do
install the hardtop in the winter just because its in the way in the garage. I have never
driven mine with the rag top up, but I have had it up to clean and check the condition.
Just looking at the rag top I would say it would keep the cabin warmer than the hard
top as it is well padded and the rear window is glass with defroster. Lack of a hard top would not bother me at all.Comment

Re: Found one I can afford
Ken, sounds like it's worth a look.
I have not found that to be the case. The hardtop is well insulated, provides a quieter ride, and also has the defroster.Originally posted by Peterfurlan View PostLast edited by 007Cruiser; Oct 11, 2012, 01:55 PM.Comment

Re: Found one I can afford
Is the title still clear, no damaged, salvage, rebuilt, or etc.? If that is good, see what is on carfax. If you plan to keep it a long time, this would not matter if the repair is good.Originally posted by abaton6 View Post02 Nieman Marcus-SS htp-f/sil. #165 - 21 states-DC

Re: Found one I can afford
Excellent advice. If repaired properly you can benefit greatly from a much lower price.Originally posted by 4LOWBIRDS+1 View PostComment

It has a "rebuilt" title.Comment

Re: Found one I can afford
This will hurt resale, but if the repair is good and you are getting a good price, and want to keep the car, who cares.Originally posted by abaton6 View Post02 Nieman Marcus-SS htp-f/sil. #165 - 21 states-DC

Re: Found one I can afford
Yes, I agree: wait. When I was young, I wanted a Corvette, but there was NO WAY I could ever afford one, not even used. But I was young and impatient. So I saw a car that was "repaired" and bought it--it was a nightmare--only to find out later when I tried desperately to sell it that the so-called repair was the welding of a second Corvette front onto the back of another one. I had to junk it and lost a lot of money (for me) at the time.Comment
