Default Thinking of selling my 1971 LT-1

Been traveling quite a bit latley and have not had a chance to think about how and when to sell my LT-1.

I have a 1971 LT-1 Coupe with 45,000 miles.
Sunflower Yellow
Black Interior
4:11 Gears
M21 Close Ratio 4 Speed Manual Transmission
330 HP
Corvette Order Copy
...Everything else is fairly ordinary for an LT-1 (i.e. no air, just ready to run fast and hard!)

Its in good shape, but i just dont have the time to devote to it anymore.

Mostly original...Missing a handfull of parts for complete numbers matching.
Needed:
TI Distributor
Starter
Alternator
A.I.R.
Jack
and a few other minor parts...not a huge list and the car is in good shape for a driver or even a good candidate for full restoration.

Recently rebuilt the entire suspension and just finishing up new carpet and seat foam.

Have not thought about a price yet but it will be in the mid 30's.

If anyone wants to take a closer look before I get all of the details and get it officially posted for sale, please PM me and I will gladly return with more info...mostly trying to guage interest and assess price before posting after the 1st of the year. I will post pictures next week when I get back home.

Post some pics, and I think Mid 30s is a fair price if all checks out.

Hey, this is my old car! I think I still have one of the order sheets for it in my safe box.

Ron, shoot me a PM or an email at vette442@hotmail.com. If I can offload one of my current cars, I may be interested but it would be a couple months before I could do anything.

Anyone interested in a very nice '74 L82 4 speed coupe? ; )

Terry

Default Adding a few pictures

Just wanted to add a few pictures.
The interior picture is not new since i have it torn apart right now adding new carpet and re-doing the seat foam.
i am also adding the original radio back to the car.

They are not current, i will take better ones when i get it back together.
the undercarrage pictures were taken during the suspension resto.

Here is the link to the main album on our club site
http://www.ncvettes.com/copper/thumbnails.php?album=92

...and then the links to the individual pictures.

Have not figred it out yet...I'll know when i finish getting it back together and have a few of my NCRS friends take a look.

I'm initially thinking mid 30's.

I'll officially post it for sale in January with new pictures, detailed spec, doc's, etc. but if anyone wants a look in the mean time, i am willing to show it.

Sorry the intent of the original post was to quage interest and have forum members help me figure out the best way to sell and guage price. Since the original post, ive had several folks wanting more and i appologize since i'm traveling for work and then into the holiday's.
I will get my act together soon and provide full details for all mid January.
I'm more than willing to return emails or take calls to discuss further in the mean time.

Sorry Corvette Forum owners...
I just saw the "** New "for Sale" Rules ** 04-09-07 **" thread.

Please remove my thread and I will re-post properly or i can move it to the general section

Thanks,
Ron

Is that really sunfire yellow? That looks like a daytona yellow. Sunfire yellow is a light yellow when that looks to be pretty dark.
