"I'm parting out my Corvette since it was wrecked. Gave it to some guy named Mikey G to detail it and the next thing I know it turns up wrecked. So I'm parting it out now.

Still has good engine and was only wrecked in the rear and top. Has the 7 speed manual transmission.

Only has 1257 miles on it. Will not sell whole so don't ask.

If interested contact Trent at (402) 382-5968"

:lol:
Car owner isn't paying and the detailer will end up taking him to small claims. :D

He missed a spot

[4mm]

Detailer thought it would buff right out :p

Afraid that I would be in jail....

Interesting you would think he had insurence on the car and then they would get the car??? Either way who takes their brand new C7 to get detailed :badidea:

Anyway how much to you think he wants for the engine and trans??? Lol

[fleetus macmullitz]

I wonder if anyone has swapped in a 5th gen LT and 7 speed yet?

Most new cars look a better after a good detailing, some a lot better. "Dealer prep" usually just scratches & swirls the paint. A friend of mine details high end cars and he routinely details new cars. So it being at a detailer is not surprising at all.

Oh I get it on detailing but I don't get why no ins?? Just seems a little fishy that he would be just be parting it out?? :knokwood: Plus on Craigslist?? Maybe but just seems strange.

Just curious why the hell you would take a car with only 1200 miles to some detail shop, I bet it was one hell of a burn out, Hope everything works out for the owner of the car

I can understand getting it detailed, but in my neck of the woods if you take your car to a detailer named Mikey G, bad things are bound to happen. Plus I came across this;

Thanks Greg, I just kept saying who would just put it up on Craigslist??? :thumbsup:

[fleetus macmullitz]

Well it is a wrecked C7 and the odds are a detailer did it. :underchair:

lol

If this thread ends up on Snopes, it could provide the free publicity I've been lookin' for... :D
