HELLO: BUY IT NOW or make an offer but please include your phone number in the "message to seller" when making an offer. I will want to talk to you before accepting an offer.... INTRO: Up for sale today is one of the Crown Jewels of my personal car collection. This is a very high quality car that runs and drives perfectly and handles like a new car thanks to Hotchkiss suspension, a brand new performance steering box (ZERO play) , and totally rebuilt suspension and bushings... Without a doubt the best driving 1968 Chevelle for sale anywhere. This is a beautiful no issues show quality car that would make anyone happy. This was a professional restoration that cost over $30K not including the straight, solid, low mileage, unmolested original car (worth over $15K) that the build began with.Additional Photos at skyypilot.use.com. I have three videos on YouTube and can send links to people interested in BUYING the car. WHY I AM SELLING/TERMS/TRADES: Before I further describe the car, I want to be clear about a few things: THIS IS NOT A DISTRESS SALE. I can afford to keep this car indefinitely. Money is NOT a problem for me (trying to get rid of the Vultures, re-sellers, and Bottom Feeders – it never works). My car collection is bursting at the seams so I am tight on space but I CAN keep this car if I don't get the price I want. I may be willing to let someone pay me over a short period of time (3 months MAX), no interest, but I own 100% of the car and paperwork until it is 100% paid for. And you will have to convince me you aren’t going to be a problem before I will do this. I am going to fully disclose what I know about this car, even if it is at my own peril. I am not interested in ANY trades of ANY kind. Sorry, my garage is overflowing already. Anyone who tries to scam me or hurt me will find out what their genitals taste like. Be decent to me and we will get along fine. I am not a kid and I am not an old geezer. I have a family and a full time job so please be respectful that my time is limited. Please bid only what you can afford to pay and please be sure your spouse of whomever has approved the purchase. I will require an immediate deposit of $500 at the close of the auction. If you come to inspect the car after a deposit and it has been grossly misrepresented I will refund the deposit. If you can't come up with the money, change your mind, the dog bid for you, or you have were forced to bid as part of a sex game (I have heard them all) you will only get half of the deposit back. If you never call or do not complete the transaction in a timely manner I will keep the whole deposit. Full payment by bank wire transfer, cashier's check drawn on a real bank, or cash in person is expected within 7 business days unless we make other arrangements prior to the auction close. Please view my 15 plus years of flawless feedback. There is a reason for it..... Please understand that your bid is a contract to BUY the car unless it is NOT what has been described. There is NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND ON THIS CAR. It is sold as-is where-is. It has been restored but it is still 46 years old. There will be small issues from time to time as there are with all vintage cars. If you do not understand this, please do not bid. THE WHOLE STORY about the Chevelle: Please READ the WHOLE story and look at all the pictures BEFORE you make an offer…. I have written an awful lot to prevent a misunderstanding. Please read on if you are serious… This is an extremely nice car. Straight, solid, and completely restored by a professional shop 1 year ago. This car is gorgeous and drives incredibly well, it corners and handles like a much newer car. NO play in the steering, NO bump steer, NO bad manners at all. It is wonderful to drive and it really moves and has that 4th gear so it cruises comfortably down the highway. This was MY car and I love it but changes in my life have me contemplating selling it.... The car runs excellent and needs nothing. It is very quick and incredibly smooth with a professional header dual exhaust with a crossover pipe that sounds incredible, not real loud but just the right amount of loud. Everything works and the paint on this car is superb and originally cost $10,000. In my experience, pictures lie about paint. In the case of this car, they do lie because this car actually looks better in person than it does in the photos. The car is truly stunning in person, people gawk and stare. The car is a custom dark grey with big metal flake so it has a very unique look - not another Chevelle out there painted this color. In very bright sunlight it looks gold to silver, almost like one of those Chameleon paints. It is truly stunning and photos and even videos do not capture it.Everything was restored, brand new engine and transmission, the brakes, suspension, interior - literally everything, no expense spared. This car does not leak fluids and is extremely user friendly and easy to own. There are a few small bits that could be better like some of the chrome is a "9" and not a "10" but this car is show ready and I would drive it anywhere. This car has been driven very little since the build. I have a building full of muscle cars so this car is in rotation with 6 other regular drivers and a few others and this car is way too nice to drive unless the weather is PERFECT so it sits a lot. Except for a few TINY touched up chips that you have to have your nose almost touching the car to find the paint is perfect. Again, the final blocking and paint cost over $10,000 so consider that when looking at a Chevelle that “needs paint”. Quality paint is incredibly expensive today. The underside of this car is spectacular – see the photos in the skyypilot.use.com page. Incredibly clean and nicely painted. Original floors and trunk are rust free. Frame is perfect. The car shows no signs of ever being hit of having panels replaced. No issues at all.The glass is excellent. All windows roll up and down properly. The car runs and drives perfectly. It has power steering and power brakes. The car tracks straight down the road. The wheels are NOT new and have some areas where the chrome is lifting. The tires are nice but not new. For reasons unknown, they went all new on the rest of the car but went cheap on the wheels. ALL OF THE PHOTOS AND THE VIDEO WERE TAKEN RECENTLY. Nothing has changed. I guarantee it. Be sure to ask this question when looking at other cars on here. Here is a list of WHAT WORKS on the car: Headlights (high and low beams); aftermarket radio; brake lights, parking lights, turn signals, gauges except speedometer, gauge lighting, parking brake, heater/defroster/vent. Here is a list of what I know about that needs fixing: Speedometer has not been hooked up; wipers energize but do not sweep; The horn does not work. That’s it. The car is ready to drive across the nation today. It stops and steers wonderfully. It draws more attention than Kim Kardashian in a thong (you have that in your cell phone too don't you?). It will win the “dead grass” award at any car show on turf – you may not be able to see the car for the crowd around it. This car will not disappoint even the pickiest person. You really do feel like Superman when you drive this car…. You are at least an instant movie star.... PAPERWORK: I have clean, clear, and blank Louisiana title for this car. Signed with nothing else filled out. I have also registered it in my name in Connecticut but Connecticut does NOT issue titles for pre 1981 cars so I never transferred the other title. Either way, you will have what you need for your state. INSPECTION: I do not have time for tire kickers, chat pals or lookey-loos but I will gladly show anyone the car BEFORE they bid or make an offer. I would prefer it if at all possible. Any inspection BEFORE an offer is welcome. VALUE: This car is well worth what I am asking – I have priced it to sell quickly and at a loss to me. This is one of the most popular muscle cars of all time and it might be the nicest example available for sale this year. Again, it cost over $30k to build this car and would cost even more today to build. I am not greedy – I am just trying to get back most of what I paid for it. I am not poor – at all - so please don’t waste my time with lowball offers. Warning: Be very wary of the eBay hot-rod mills like Classic Car Liquidators and Smoky Mountain Traders as their cars are built quickly and are often painted in Mexico with cheap Synthetic Enamel paint jobs that last about 6 months. Many, many cars sold on eBay today are built very quickly and with very shoddy build quality by people who sell cars to make a living. This car I am selling is in a whole different category than most cars on eBay because it WAS NOT built to profit anyone. It was built with love and with no mind to costs. You may save a few grand buying from the big guy but you will regret it. Ask me how I know..... COST TO OWN: Classic car ownership is very cheap. Here in Connecticut, fixed costs per year are $40 for early American plates; around $20 for taxes ($500 tax assessment is MANDATORY); and Hagerty Classic Auto Insurance is around $120 a year for FULL coverage. So for about $200 (about $0.60 a day!) you can enjoy driving this gorgeous car! Classic cars are a great investment. According to Knight Frank's Wealth Report, collectible cars were the top-performing collectible asset with prices surging 23-percent in the 12-months ending in the third quarter of 2012, and posting gains of 395-percent over 10-years. Google it if you don't believe me. FOR INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: The car is located about 100 miles from New York and New Jersey shipping ports. I would estimate it would cost around $500 to get the car down there. You will have to handle the broker and pay for everything of course. I recently shipped a Corvette to Australia and it went very well. Domestic shipping: I recommend Montway for long hauls and Uship for short hauls. If you are on the route between CT and Dallas Texas I have a friend (Fernando) who makes a regular route and he can get the car to you cheap. If you are in the Northeast I will direct you to Walter at C&C Transportation 978-846-8578. He will be cheaper than anyone. QUESTIONS: Send me your phone number and I will gladly ask any questions that you may have. I sincerely want the buyer to be happy with this car. If you plan to ship the car I will do my best to hand the car off to the shipper and take condition pictures as it goes on the transporter in case something happens. Congrats: For making it through my dissertation. I feel this is necessary to properly describe a car for people who may be buying “sight unseen”. When looking at other cars on here you should DEMAND all of this information. I never understood people who bid on cars with poor pictures and terse write-ups. Many sellers take poor quality pictures to hide defects. Notice that my pictures are taken in full sunlight. And even pictures taken well can be deceiving. Be careful and ask lots of questions. You are playing with fire….
