Default Thinking about selling my 77 L-82 - Curious on value

So we bought this 77 L-82 in 1989, with 53,000 miles on it. Now its got 127,000 on the clock. I have done a lot to it over the years ( Warmed over motor, 700r4, hydroboost) The car was painted in 93 but its due for it again - total restrip and spray.

I am probably nuts - but I am thinking about a Porsche. Have not driven the Corvette much at all year. What are your thoughts on value ?

I'm biased towards the Vette, and I don't care much for any Porsche except a Carrera GT II. The rest I think are over priced and I don't care for the design.

So if you were to ask me, I would say keep the C3.

less than what it is worth to you. $8000 mint and $6000 mediocre? if it's a tech question i do not know how to answer it?

Keep the '77 you'll kick yourself someday if its gone.
I'd have to agree its worth more to you with the time and $$$ already invested.
