We would even suggest purchasing the car and rescuing the Corvette from further desecration, but with an upfront cost of $22,350, we think it’s kinda steep. We would offer the seller $8,000, and put it back to normal.
So when you get done, you're gonna have over $20,000 wrapped up in a '79 Vette anyway.....
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense

When I clicked on the link in the OP my anti-virus software lit up and sounded several warnings that the linked site was a known distributor of malware, so...beware.

I noticed my laptop suddenly got a case of the s-l-o-w-s as I typed my reply after checking the link. (5-7 second keyboard delay is still lagging badly). It even bogged when I was trying to open up my pictures folder just after that. I immediately had suspicions about the site because they did the annoying POP-UP IN YOUR FACE trick while I was trying to read the first paragraph. Went back and closed the tab which I had left open, but damage already done.
Looks like I need to run another scan.
It had been behaving OK right up until I looked at the link. Had an update last week that perked it up.

Glad I didn't continue to the site then! I backed out when I got the warning.

Certainly not going to suit most people's taste,
But the fabrication work itself was top notch, IMO.

Google Chrome blocked access to it as well and stated the site was a distributor of malware.

Good job Nikivee!
