hi,im in the market for a big block vette,midyear coupe and i dont know if i should wait a few months or jump on one now? as i am getting the feeling that with our present economic down turn that these just might come down a bit? i sold my 67 390hp vette a year ago and now it is being offered back at a increased amount.. i understand that they have come up in the last year but do you all think they may come down a bit? and how soon? please tell me honestly what you think.. thanx in advance..dave

A wholseller I know says they are DOWN now but they will be back!

I want mine to drive this year, if you wait and hope they will come down some, you may get lucky, if you plan on holding on to it, you know it will eb worth more next year. Its just how bad you want one.

It's going to be long and hard to find a good deal. Especially for big blocks. I wanted a big block but realized if I wanted to be able to have some fun, not bust the bank, and get something I can play with, then small block was the way to go. Buy if it is a big block you have to have, just keep looking and don't get in a hurry as the market and deals are totally unpredictable in my opinion. Up and down and in-between.

Good luck

It's sometimes hard to find the car you want.
Just keep looking and when the the one you really like comes along BUY IT. and enjoy it.

Wish i could get my 64 back for 20% more but then i sold it in 78 for 6500 too

You might just have to bite the bullett so to speak if you liked that car enough --if you hang in there long enough it''ll be worth more--Just chalk it up to experance--Glenn
