Hi Everybody!

Thanks for answering the top question for me Roma!

EarlyJ, I will have to get back to you with the vin#, I didn't think to write it down.

Jeremy, I have no problem selling over-seas, I sold my 69 BB Roadster to a nice guy in Denmark via the Forum. As long as all the i's are dotted and t's crossed before car leaves, we are all good. I will attach some of the pics you requested. It's been a bit rainy on Orcas all week, and havn't made the trip up to my friends Garage to shoot more pics yet, Sorry to all that have asked, please be patient.

Jotto, thanks for the heads up.

Avijay7519 I believe the birdcage, underside and frame, etc... are all good with no rust, car was in AZ previous to my buddy's purchase 4-5 years ago. I will shoot pics of these and post them as well.

TO EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS BUMPED ME to THE TOP OR MADE NICE COMPLIMENTS THANKS A BUNCH!!!! WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!
This is a NICE car for the money. I have seen other L-79's advertised locally for 10 grand more!!!

$24,900 OR BEST OFFER!!!!

Just commenting that if I was still looking (I found "mine" 6 months ago), your 68 would have been on top of my list of "wanna-have". It's really neat that the car was brought back close to original and even the tank sticker is around.

Just wondering, why you don't post pics of the undercarriage and engine bay. From the description you gave for the car and judging from the pics, you don't have to hide them from us.

Greetings from Switzerland,

Martin

...having the "forward" driver's door rearview mirror and the non-door panel pull straps, I'd be suprised if the VIN would be later than 16,000.

...it is a very cool '68. In this day and age, if you're not making or restoring a Bloomington or NCRS car, I'd rather have a very, very correct engine and not worry about something happening to the original engine or putting miles on it.

Thanks Vettebuyer5869, you are right it is British Green! I have edited all previous posts in this thread to make it correct. Thanks again for the polite edit.

Default Price lowered!!!

Hi Everyone,

Against my better judgement, my friend who owns the Corvette would like me to lower the price.

$23,500 or best offer! (that's 1400 off from our last price, so you can think of it like free shipping!)

Wow, I'm really liking this car. Maybe your friend wants a nice '69 Mustang in partial trade...?

Both the Vette and the Mustang are outstanding looking cars. Wish I could own both.
