Hi y'all just wanted to say thank you for having this forum and im thinking about buying a 1984 vette. Would like to ask y'alls opinion on it and if 3800.00 is a fair price for it. It has right around 100,000 miles and in pretty decent shape with normal wear and tear on the paint, if y'all need some pics of it ive got some ill just have to upload them when i figure out how to do it ;). Anyway i do appreciate any help in this regard and ive been wanting a vette for a very long time, and i look forward to learning about them and getting to know everyone here too. Again thank you for taking the time.......bill

I finally figured it out..lol...heres some pics of her. Hope y'all like

Welcome to CF, Bill! :)
A lot of good folk here 'bouts, ask all the questions ya want. ;)

Hey HB, Welcome to the site. Like Starship said...great folks and lots of answers. IMHO, $3800.00 for any running vette is a good price, but it really depends if you like it or not. It's really only worth, to you, is what you're willing to pay for it. '84 was the first year for the c4...that has to count for something. Paint is no problem. How does it run? what shape is the drive train and suspension in? they can be frustrating to work on sometimes but not to bad and they're definitely a blast to drive. look it over real well and good luck with it. Don't forget to wave. Cheers

Thank you C3 and Blue and im definitely leaning toward buying it. I think the pictures finally posted so if y'all have a few mins and see what ya think. Also i love the rims on it and they must be corvette rims, but i cant seem to find any info at all on them, if ya know of anyhting on that please let me know. Ill definitely wave and i already feel like im part of this wonderful life called Corvette :D.

After looking at the pictures ...that's a deal and a half, That car looks great. If it runs decent snatch it up! great lookin' car. Don't know about the rims but they're sharp, I like 'em.

I like the rims too! They really go with that red! ;)
I've seen similar rims on "Porches".

( ....but,.....how's she drive?,..Hmmmmm....? :eek:Don't just go for the pretty face, check 'er out real good. ;))

Thank you Blue and C3... i know im hooked too, she rides kinda rough but ive always been told the c4s did, but it tracks nice down the road and seems to pull pretty good too from a stop. I do notice however that after its warmed up and i shut it down for a few mins and then come back to restart, i notice some blue smoke but im assuming thats most likely the valve seals cause it hasnt been driven alot for its age. Other than that i think a good tune-up and fluid change is in order, also tires are good as well and jsut little mickey mouse stuff needs fixed. To me she runs right on. Thank you again for taking the time..i truly appreciate it...bill

........and somthing that I think everyone will agree on,....is.....





( you will have to put money in it, just ain't no gittin' 'round it, no matter what modle, no matter what year,but,......................................... ...................... Ya only go around once, why not go around in a Vette! ;))

RE: Im new here
 

Amen to that C3 i totally agree and im looking forward to learning about corvettes and what makes them tick, and i know ill be here alot and maybe just maybe oneday i can help someone like y'all have already helped me :D[sm=smiley20.gif]

RE: Im new here
 

...and we'd like to have ya help out if ya can. ;)

Electrical will have issues, so will the suspension, and drive train. Just like any other car. When ya go to check it out, get in, fire it up, and start playin' with everything! Take note of everything that doesn't work. Take 'er for a drive. Does the steering wheel bounce, vibrate or pull to one direction? Are there any *clunks* during excel/decel? Do the brakes pull to one side or will she stop in a straight line?

They're not "broken",but "sick", and we need to make them well! :)
