I wonder if I can finally score that new Chevette I always wanted.

I can't even begin to imagine the money it would take to make those cars run again.

Did they already sell the first batch?

Can't imagine why they didn't try to reduce the price and get something for them.

Idiots. These cars are anything BUT preserved. They have been turned into low mile POS's.

What a HUGE difference it would have made if they were maintained.

Sure, but they may not be that bad. I'm assuming that the storage place was dry, so rust likely isn't an issue. Engines seized? I doubt it, but easy enough to determine. Oil, gasoline, rubber hoses, tires, and brake lines and fluid will need to be replaced, carbs rebuilt.

If kept dry, interiors should be perfect, and paint should be good.

Depending on the condition of those cars, they may be worth having because they are all original. Would love to have that vette.:cert:
