I don't know know the person or Corvette but some one wonting a 55 will be upset after paying $195,000.00 and finding so many parts wrong or missing and that is what I could only see by the poor pic's shown .Scares me to think what the rest shows .OH. at that ,it seems the frame looks like it may be pitted from rusting.

This Corvette appears to have white seats. I have never seen a Polo White with white seats. GypseyRed, yes. Has anyone ever seen a factory Polo White and white?

I think the hood is unlatched, probably looks better that way, can you imagine what it would look like latched. Its a 200 footer!

You may be right. Look at the picture with the car in the mountains. The hood is latched and appears much better.
