Comments from previous customers:
I bought my 1969 Corvette from Hobby Car Corvettes four years ago and itās a solid car and I drive it all the time. I enjoyed working with RJ and his team there. They are honest and straightforward. I would purchase from them again.
Enjoyed a great ride into DC and then home. Starting our list of things to do but wanted to thank you

RJ, my Vette passed inspection here in RI. The young kid at the garage was salivating all over. The car is gorgeous. Glad I ended up with this color and model.
A couple of guys who know some stuff thought it was a good deal. Thanks to you and your dad. This is a keeper. Suspect I may upgrade in the future. I will be back!

The vette arrived today without any hiccups. And sure looks to me like you installed the seat covers, door panels, and a portion of the carpet. I really appreciate that!!!!
Iām going to have taking care of this classic hot rod. Iāll save the rest of the carpet and detailing for the winter months.
Thanks again RJ!!Ā Ken
RJ is awesome! We live in OāFallon, IL. and did something we swore we would never do…buy a car sight unseen! After doing our āhomeworkā and talking to RJ numerous evenings on the phone, we took the leap and bought our gorgeous yellow ā79 survivor, without leaving the comfort of our living room. RJ was so, so patient, answering our many questions and sending us lots of pictures. He made the whole process very stress-free. When our Vette arrived at our front door we were ecstatic! The car is exactly as RJ had described and as we expected it to be. If youāre in the market for a C3, do yourself a favor and check out his inventory. When you find āthe carā, relax and know that RJ is the real deal…honest, professional, and he know his Corvettes!
Hi RJ, Finally have the Vette home, arrived 6AM, woke the neighbors up! Here it is sat on my drive with the kids crawling around inside it. Drove to work in it today and wow, awesome. Its just hilarious how out of place it looks in the car park amongst all the Euro boxes, modern German and British cars. We are setting off to the Le Mans 4 hour race in June so should have some good pics for you, try and take some pics with it parked outside a castle or something old feel free to use on your blog or website if that helps. Thanks once again I am over the moon with the vehicle and the support you have provided, would have no hesitancy in recommending you guys to anyone looking to buy a Corvette worldwide. Cheers, Rich from the UK.
Hello RJ,
Many thanks to you, I am having a blast looking at it and driving itšš
Great healthy day

Made it home. No issues. That rain sucked but didn't see any leaks. Thanks again!!
Hi RJ.
Just a brief note to say I finally got the car released from Customs on Thursday and got to at least sit in it!
Iām REALLY happy with it. Thanks a lot for the opportunity, itās exactly what I wanted. Ā
As you can imagine, making a significant purchase like this from photos on the internet comes with some trepidation.
However, the condition is as good as I could have possibly hoped for so Iām very pleased that I chose you to buy from.
Hope to drop in and see you one day to say thank you personally.Ā
Regards,
Graeme in Australia
Hey RJ let you mom k is we made it Roanoke VA Ā safely and should make it home Today!!

RJ:
The Corvette arrived this morning and it is more beautiful than the pictures indicated. Thank you for making this dream come true. I have wanted a Corvette since I was 10 years old.Ā
RJ,
Thought I would send you a couple of pictures of my dream car I waited 50 years for! This baby runs great!
Thanks again,
Gary
Hello Mr Sottile,
I hope you are well.
Itās just to let you know that the car has arrived today with me and it looks and sounds great!!
No damage done during the trip so all is good.
Can I just say a massive thank you for all your help over the last few months.
I hope I didnāt hound you too much, but as I had never done this before, I hope you understood my concerns.
You were so helpful and answered all my questions, so once again many thanks.
I would like to hope I may be back for maybe a 70ās model at some point, I like those too!
In the meantime, I will tinker around with my new ābabyā and look forward to the summer months ahead where I can show her off!
Kind regards
Tony in the UK
Thanks RJ. Love the car and It was really nice meeting you and your family. Definitely worth the trip!
RJ,
this is literally the first moment ive had to sit and compose and e-mail since I got home (I had some previous engagements this afternoon and evening and buying a car in martinsburg PA was infringing on those plans bigtime). but yes, I, and much more importantly, the corvette made it back to Annapolis just fine. looking forward to “playing” with it a little tomorrow. thanks for the pleasant buying experience and please pass those sentiments along to Bob and Sharlene as well.
cheers,
ben
We got it!!! Love it !!! Thanks so much! Tony from Wisconsin
RJ, Have not spoken to you since taking delivery of my car. Just wanted to let you know that I am happy with the car. I was uncomfortable doinga deal online but, it turned out fine. It is pretty much what I expected. Your description was acurate, a solid 35 year old car. This is not a flip for me. I will make improvements over the next several years, and I am sure I will enjoy it for years to come. Thanks again. Sal
Hi RJ,
It’s me again the car arrived today we are so happy with it thanks again for all your help.
Thanks, Neville from Malta
Hi RJ, went and collected corvette yesterday, was not disappointed drove 110 miles back from London sweet as a nut. Look forward to the other one.
Thanks Martin
I just received the Vette. It’s a beauty, Thank You Very Much
Fiance approved!!!! Thank you RJ for making probably the smoothest vehicle transaction I ever had!!! We all love it including the kiddos!!! Definitely gotta get the use out of the regular tag before the antique tag arrives.
RJ.. sending you many thanks. The car arrived late last night and I’m very happy. It was scary buying without seeing it but you made easy. Thank you Steve in Florida
Hi Rj,
I purchased a 77 Corvette, L48, white / red interior, 4 speed from you back in September. Figured Iād drop you a line and give you an update.
I canāt remember if I told you this at the time, but I bought this car to give to my wife for our 10 year wedding anniversary. Our anniversary wasnāt until September 26th, so I had to hide it from my wife in my friends garage.
On the night of the 26th, while my wife and I were out to dinner, my Brother in law and my friend brought the corvette from my friends garage over to my house. When we got home from dinner my wife lost her mind and couldnāt believe that it was hers, saying at one point āok, we have to give this back at some point, right?ā. I assured her it was hers to keep, and after about 5 minutes of disbelief, she took the keys and went out for a solo voyage. When she made her way back in the driveway, it was tears, ear to ear grin, she raved about how it ran, in total disbelief that I gave her the Corvette she always dreamed about.
Because of the limited time I had before the our anniversary, I didnāt really have a chance to really go through the car, but since then I have. I pulled a full vacuum on the AC system for a good 4 hours, then let it sit under vacuum for another 4 hours to discover there were no leaks. Two and a half cans of R134 later the AC is ice cold, and has stayed that way since. The car starts every single time, weāve put almost 200 trouble free and fun filled miles on it already. Sheās taken it to work twice, and always seems a little happier when she comes home from work on those days. It runs great and I couldnāt be happier. It feels safe and sturdy, and Iām confident that it wonāt leave her stranded.
As far as the exterior goes, I clay barād the entire car, then worked in an extra heavy coat of Meguarās number 7 in to the paint and let it sit over night. If you have a faded single stage paint car come in, I highly recommend this, as mine came up like glass. Iāve enclosed a pic. Iām amazed at how well this works. Thereās tons of info out there on how to resurrect faded single stage paint, and it really worked wonders on the Corvette.
I do have a question. Do you have any info on the previous owner / owners? This car is amazingly clean. I had to pull the passenger side dashboard out to trouble shoot the volt gauge (it stopped working) and was shocked to discover there was absolutely no rust anywhere in the birdcage / bottom windshield channel. Iām just curious about its history and life before I bought it.
It was great to meet you. Iām glad I had the chance to come out and check out your inventory. It was amazing to see all those C3ās in one place. I couldnāt be happier with the condition, performance, and believe it or not, reliability of this Corvette.
Thanks,
John in Delaware

Hey. Just wanted let you know still really diggin the car. And before things really get rocking for the holidays hope you guys have a merry.
Hi RJ, finally IĀ“m a proud owner of a gorgeous 1968 vette! The car arrived already 6 weeks ago but had been at the repair shop until thursday. We had to deal with some issues concerning the head and tail lamps due to German regulations. Weather this weekend was great, so I took the car on a ride. What should I say ā it was wonderful. The Vette is a real beauty and defintely a head-turner⦠IĀ“m very happy and wanted to thank you for all your efforts! I attached a picture for your facebook page ā I hope you notice that IĀ“m wearing the proper flag on my shirt ????Greetings from Germany, Ludwig
Hi RJ, hope your well and selling plenty of those cars just an email to inform you after a long hold up in customs I got to see my car for the first time yesterday itās just what I wanted looks great and I would just like to thank you very much it will do us proud. Thank you again.
I bought my yellow 79 L82 manual Corvette from Hobby Car Corvettes.
I bought it “sight unseen” which most people advise not to do. I bought it purely on the photos and the video. I was worried but now that I have received my car, I am very pleased with it. It seems to be in very good condition and I have checked the usual rust trouble spots. The more I look at it, the happier I am. I never spoke to RJ in person or even on the phone but I would like to thank him for selling me my dream car.
Hi RJ, just wanted to thank you and tell you the car has been great. Itās really fun car to drive.
Hi RJ,
Thanks for you for your service as I want to informed you that I received The car and it’s in good condition.
Thank you again and we hope to have the opportunity to work with you in the future.
She arrived a few hours ago.Ā Extremely pleased with car.
Thanks again RJ
And even more happy new Corvette owners:
1979 Red corvette RJ I drove 165 miles to get home and the car ran perfectly.Ā It isĀ a real blast to drive.Ā I was a little tentative at first because of the rain but by the time I got onto US 30, I was really comfortable with the handling.Ā The grandsons think it is AWESOME.Ā I think they would rather go for a ride than go trick-or-treating. Thanks for your help. Bob in Maryland
