Well, my 1995 corvette. My wife and I purchased in May of 2021 in Daytona Beach, Florida. Car looked to be in great shape from what I could tell at the dealership. The dealer delivered to me in Florida and the fun began. Next day I put into  a Chevrolet dealer to go over everything. Due to the age the tires needed replacement, brakes, rotors, and a oil leak some were. I already knew the radio did not work and some other little things that I wanted to replace anyway. The oil leak way from a front seal and there were some plastic parts in the oil pan. At this point I told the dealer to replace the water pump and anything else he touched. While waiting for my car ( 3 weeks ) I decided to do a little research. The car came from Missouri, in early 1998 the car was stolen, was in a hail storm, and a flood . The Missouri DMV sent me copies of all the titles which there were11 and the car was originally black from the factory. Nine of the titles were from small dealerships and the others were from the same family. The odometer reads 56,000 but the titles read no way due to a odometer cluster replacement after the flood.  I am still happy with the car and all but the radio is working.  This is our 14 vet and we have never seen this much paper work before. By the way the car was purchased for $10,000 out the door with the free delivery. Dennis and Lura Riddell

Car looks sharp!  Car was in a flood and the radio doesn't work?  Just for grins and giggles, remove the small storage box behind the passenger seat and see if the area below is full of water.  That's where the actual functioning parts of the radio (assuming Bose) are.
