The vendor has provided the model of the vehicle to be a Chevrolet Corvette Crossfire, please confirm upon your own inspection.
The vendor has provided the following:
- The electric aerial does not work. I think this is a fuse
- The rev counter is not working, fitted a new circuit board, get needle deflection on key start, so as power, think the pulse generator in the distributor is the fault, not a big job

It has:
- New carpets
- Back boxes
- New steering wheel and shocks
- Fuel pump and sender unit
