American Classic Car Sales Sarasota FL 7k mi 70 convertible anybody know them ??

[Bob B.]

Does anybody have any input re American Classic Car Sales in Sarasota FLA ? They have a yellow 70 convertible showing
7,000 miles I always take that with a grain of salt but it looks original in many ways and 300 hp automatics usually did not
get used up as much as big block 4 speeds Does anybody know this car ??? Any input is welcome or local knowledge.
If there is somebody in Sarasota that has time to take a look at this car I would be happy to pay you for your time,
I am considering this as a survivor supposedly has window sticker, full owners pop package keys etc.
I appreciate your input Thanks, Bob
Car is currently on EBAY

Look at the underside and engine bay The dirt / oil looks like a year old or so car the normal 60-90k cars have a very different look.

Paint from 1070 looked like sxxx when the car was three years old UNLESS it was completely kept in a dark garage. The numbers on the

odometer line up perfectly straight- they are all crooked up and down if they have been "adjusted" ie spun back. Supposed to be a lot

of service records, window sticker, POP card, etc with the car original keys, original rag top I hear you, it's pretty easy to tell in person,

this old dog has been around the block a LOT of times, cynical SOB I am. THANKS, Bob We shall see

I've been to 3-4 of those "classic dealers" in Sarasota looking at cars for myself and others....I didn't expect much and I was never disappointed...
Most seem to have the same formula - buy something on the cheap, gussy it up for the naive buyer and flip it for all you can get...

This outfit gets better reviews than most and has a BBB rating of "A" - if you trust any of that stuff...reviews are thin and there are a few complaints (supposedly closed out).

If you are still interested a physical inspection is mandatory IMO !!

You may run across corvettes advertised by Just Toys Classic Cars in Orlando. Do extensive research.

You may run across corvettes advertised by Just Toys Classic Cars in Orlando. Do extensive research.

They are a consignment shop mostly - selling cars for owners and they don't own the inventory (or much of it anyway) hence their offerings are a bit better than the usueal classic dealers - on the whole IMO. But they can play some games on the money side...

I've dealt with them...
