    wow look at the road behind it. after all his galavanting about it being a 45mph zone and no place to pull over, i would have figured it would be a busy road. but LOOK! its in a residential neighborhood and theres not a single car in the frame.

    and i would hardly call that an alley. its a 2 car driveway.

    To be quite honest CarManiac, I don't understand why you didn't just take these pix and then post this thread seeing if anyone could identify it in the first pace instead of giving us all that vague bullshit at the beginning.

    OK, i'm fairly certain it's a c3 corvette with fiberglass all over it.

    http://www.tracyvette.com/fiberglassc3a.html

    I can't find the exact kit, but this gives you an idea. I'll give you credit for putting up with us, but being a custom kit, it's damned near impossible to guess what it was. Three taillights were NOT standard, making ID a pain.

    Now that that is settled....I bet you make the guy an offer and he'd probably take it. I'm not sure what's under the hood (besides leaves), but unless it is some kind of rare collectors car, it's not worth that much. Fiberglass gets molder if left out too long, and that's why the car appears tan. It probably used to be white. Fit and finish appear to be kind of poor, bringing value down as well....

    but I bet, unless he has a price already set, that you might be able to buy it for 4grand. More if it runs, a little less if there's no engine. But I also bet it doesn't run.
    And Iraaaaaaaaaaaan

    Iran's so far awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay...

    Trust me, that is NOT rush hour. I took them on Sunday, dickhead!!! Everybody was getting ready for the SUPER BOWL!!!! I also took those pictures with a video camera, so that I could get a LOT of pics.
    Plus, now that I have gotten the pics, everybody is STILL insulting me. I was getting home, so I decided to stop by for a few minutes. The car was completely tight-fitted. It might look wide, but that alley was TINY!!! That is why I couldn't get a full pic.

    I also live in GREATER Richmond, which includes Henrico County. Despite what you might think, I DON'T LIVE IN DOWNTOWN RICHMOND!!!!!!!! That is why it looks empty.

    I saw the engine. I got right next to it. I think the owner is, like, in the military or something and did not want to sell it. He also probably is not going to sell it. I mean, would you sell that car if you owned it? I would never do that.
