WTS: 1990 #807 57K miles Black/Black

[Chedberg]

Well, life happens. Moving cross country and have to sell the "project". 1990 #805 Black/Black 57k miles in Austin, TX 78754. It comes with a car cover, both tops, pizza box, LT5 training video, factory service manuals, no-flex frame stiffener bar (still in the box), every original part that I saved, and any/all spare/replacement parts I have. It has been very rarely driven since early/mid 2018.

Known Mechanical Issues
DERM is bad and needs repair/replacement.

AC does not work. Head unit code is set: low refrigerant. Still an R12 system. Compressor and clutch appear to be good. Was refilled in 2015 and by summer 2016 stopped working.

Serpentine belt noise when cold / occasionally when hot. Only bearing that doesn't feel like the others is the one on the refurb alternator. However, do have an AC clutch bearing replacement sitting on the shelf and a power steering bearing / refurb kit also on the shelf. Sound goes away when a new belt is installed but returns in very short order.

Intermittent stall. Usually on coast down / light braking. Has happened when cold and hot - usually hot.

Electrical connectors are in rough shape - prior owners/age were not very kind to them. A lot of broken tabs.

Very, very rarely blue smoke. Replaced/Cleaned PCV valves & installed oil catch can temporarily. Needs more attention + diagnosis. It did not do this prior to the porting of the plenum & injector housings.

Scratch on rear bumper cover
Signs of paintwork on passenger side door/quarter
Usual paint chips
Passenger side window trim has basically completely disintegrated
Emblems need replacing - have them sitting on the shelf
Passenger seat has bolster damage (was the driver's seat before swapping them on the tracks)
Broken passenger window switch
Firestone broke the passenger front low tire pressure sensor when doing a roadside hazard replacement on that wheel. That same tire has a slow leak.

History
Purchased in 2015 with 44k miles. Previous owner said the clutch/flywheel were replaced. Somewhere I have a parts invoice for the parts from Bill B (zfdoc). This is the only piece of documented history I have on the car prior to my ownership. Previous owner was an employee of Corvette World Houston. Owner before him was a friend of his and this person still held the title when I purchased it. Owner before that was another friend of the guy from CWH who had had the car in Florida. CWH supposedly might have done some work on the car around that time, I do not know. This car had a hard life prior to me owning it.

Good deal for someone wanting to do a bit if TLC.

Hopefully someone picks it up
