OK Guys, since I’m on here playing I thought I might mention that one of my Corvette Vintage race cars is coming up for sale (as soon as I finish putting the trim back on it after the complete new $10K paint job that was just done…..) No photos of it with the new paint yet but here‘s what it looked like a while ago (though it‘s far better looking now)…..
Basically, it’s a 1965 B Production Coupe that has been raced on the West Coast for the last 15 years or so. I’ve raced it for the last three years +/- and have had a blast with it! Without going into great detail, this car has participated in most every race event and track out here: Monterey Historics at Laguna Seca, Wine Country Classics at Infineon Raceway (Sears Point), Portland, Washington, Las Vegas, Coronado Island, Thunderhill, Willow Springs, Reno, etc…… Perhaps it’s the pretty Blue/Black color combo or whatever, but for some reason this car seems to get photographed quite frequently and has been chosen to be on event program covers, etc. and gets invited to participate in special events/activities…… The car is absolutely “Race Ready” and fully sorted (did all you Vintage Racers cringe when I said that phrase?). I believe what Race Ready typically means is the car runs and might have made it through the last season but no guarantees on the true condition now…… That conclusion came after I bought a Race Ready car and then spent another $100k plus to get it to Race Ready for real….. This car is very fast but the current driver (me) isn’t…. so the best I’ve done is sixth place. Another 10-20 years of practice and I’ll be right up there with the best of them…. You get the basic idea so enough of my rambling for now. Looking for $125,000 for this toy (far less than I have invested, and I have receipts to prove it) plus I’ll take you out on the track in it if you want a test ride (something else I learned is always a good idea). If you’re curious or interested, touch base with me this week before I head to Scottsdale on Sunday the 13th, or after the 20th when I return. Thanks for taking the time to read all this………. Charlie
