One-Owner *** 1989 Corvette ***
Time Capsule /
Survivor
I have over 40 years in the Automotive Business
.. and ... this is the best:
F I N D O F M Y C A R E E R !!!
I am a retired former Honda Dealership Owner who knows quality carsand ... still loves to FIND and SELL a few ... near perfect ... used luxury cars.
This Near Perfect / Time Capsule / Survivor 1989 Corvette was purchased by a 72 year old gentleman on 06/15/1989 from Conrad Hawkins Chevrolet in Jacksonville, Florida. He was a retired Airline Pilot who had worked for National Airlines and later started his own Electronics company. During his retirement years, he owned a Mooney 21 airplane which he loved and continued to fly into his eighties and a Precious White Corvette with red leather interior that he continued to drive until his late nineties. His name was Harry Bay and he passed away on April 16, 2015 at the incredible age of 100 !!!
I have included (as one of the pictures in the link below) his Obituary which appeared in the Florida Times-Union of Jacksonville on April 18, of this year. As you read it you will note that in addition to his wonderful wife and family, it mentions both of his retirement passions, His Mooney 21 and The White Corvette that I am offering for sale today.
When I picked up the car, I had no idea just how much use it had in the last few years ... but ... as I drove home on I-4 at 75 miles an hour with the cruise on and the air nice and cold, I realized just how meticulous this former Airline Pilot had taken care of his prized possession. After reviewing the hundreds of documents I received with the car, I can assure you that anything this car needed ... it got. I have every document
from Purchase Order, Window Sticker, 2 Eight-Track Corvette Videos, the Owners Manuals and every service receipt for it's entire 26 year history (see all the documents in o
ne of the pictures in the link below).
Almost every major service receipt is from a Jacksonville Chevrolet Dealership and he paid top dollar to maintain this car in peek order.

Just a few of the major receipts are:

The car now has 64, 347 miles and is in completely original condition. The paint is near perfect with a few minor scratches and door edge nicks. If you are a collector, you know the value of a Survivor classic ... is ... it's complete originality. Therefore, other than my son hand washing the car, it is exactly as I received it. The only noticeable interior wear ... is ... on both the seats there is normal wear from getting in and out and the carpet on the driver's side sill is showing some wear. Again, if you are going to show this car as a Survivor, I would suggest that you leave it just like it comes. Also, a new set of original P275/40ZR-17 Goodyear Eagle Radial tires would be appropiate.
