Believe it or not a guy traded in a NICE 1969 427 / 425 hp Corvette, hardtop, 1 owner ( him) at our local Podunk Chevy dealership a few years ago. On what I don't know, but a buddy of mine was driving by, saw a chrome bumper Corvette sitting on the lot, stopped in, couldn't believe it, struck a deal - brought it home - true story.

My wife's Grandpa was a dick that nobody liked. About 20 years ago, he had a mint 1978 25th Anniversary Corvette with 4000 miles that he never drove, and would never let anyone else near it. He ended up trading it, and a decent S-10 pickup truck on a new downsized S-10 Jimmy, and still owed $5000 in cash.....PALM TO FACE !
