Owners Chris Wickersham, Pasadena, California who owned Corvettes of Pasadena in the 60’s thru the early 90’s bought the car from original owner in 1979 and restored it. The car is the same today
He sold it to Ron Root in 1982 who sold it to John Fortney both in Ventura, CA. John moved and is the owner of EC Products / Pacific Corvette in Atascadero, California. He owned the car from 1983-2015 and sold it to a dealer friend Bob Fatore in Seattle who sold it to Don Stowers in 2015 Chatham, IL
Motor is fresh and I am totally convinced that it is original. Interior is very good. Body line and gaps are good. No signs of body damage, bird cage or frame rust. It runs and drives excellent. The car is driven a lot, not a trailer queen or a show car.
I’ve done a lot to freshen the car since 2015. PRICED at $90000 firm
DRIVE AND ENJOY THIS CAR. IF YOU WANT TO SHOW IT NCRS OR BLOOMINGTON, IT WON'T TAKE MUCH TO GET IT TO THAT DUNTOV LEVEL
