Lots of options...Ebay, here, cars.com, etc. You can also go to a local Corvette club and ask around and let word of mouth do the work for you.

Try here first, it's where I bought mine. It's free

I'd try the internet car sales sites next, Fleabay last.

I sold a split window and a '94 coupe on ebay, bought a '58 from ebay.

Nothing wrong with it, don't listen to comments like this.

I dropped my car off at a local mechanic. His shop is located on a busy corner. After finishing work on the car, he parked it in front of the shop to keep an eye on it. It was parked on a corner where I would estimate 10 ~ 15 thousand cars pass per day (rush hour x 2). He called me and insisted I come pick up the car. He was tired of fielding questions from people stopping & asking him if the car was for sale.

So...the short version: Park it on a busy street with a for sale sign.

Part II: My brother lives in a semi-rural part of Wisconsin. He couldn't give away his '98 Durango (this was right after the last major gas price increase). He advertised on E-Bay, local newspaper, Auto Trader, etc. No sale.

His friend had a large lot that fronted a major (for Wisconsin) highway. He parked the Durango on the empty lot with a for sale sign. Sold it in a week.
