CnV Corvettes How to really sale a corvette Tempe Arizona Internet

In Nov 2006 I contacted CnV Corvettes in Tempe ,AZ. to purchase a 74 Corvette.I spoke with a JT. salesman and was told that the car was in great shape.Cost around 23k.Matching numbers.But had a few minor interior problems that needed to be fixed.First it took over two weeks to deliver the car and later on (this is not my first rodeo)I notied that not only did the car slide in the rear,but there was a thud sound in the crank case. I requested the paperwork/history on the car and finally received in late July 2007.Was informed that the History had been mis-filed ? By that time I found that the left strut was bent as was the left trailing arm.I replaced both arms.As to the thud in the crank it was discovered that the 350cid had been exchanged with a 2-Bolt main,that had so much end play and Fly wheel scoring that I determend that the motor came out of a clutch car.At this time approx mileage on the car was lest than 500 miles.I also discovered that the bore had been changed.After overhauling the engine and the suspension replacements I have spent as much fixing the car as I originally paid for it.Now closed to 40k.I have all pictures that CnV sent, plus reciepts and Photos of work done to the car.

Now i am looking for a C5 but will not do business with them again.
