Purple PopUp: 1987 Chevrolet Corvette C4


How is it that a purple C4 Corvette in “needs a tow” condition sells for about 1/10th of what a similar condition classic Ford Bronco sells for? Is the C4 that bad? Is the Bronco that good? Regardless, this thing is equipped with turbine-style wheels, a plus sized rear wing, and enough purple paint to be called Barney the Vette. Find this 1987 Chevrolet Corvette C4 offered for $4000 in Eastvale, CA via facevette popupbook.

A little suspicious – the ignition coil is a pretty quick replacement, and it will run without valve stem seals. I wonder if there’s more.
