If I'm being honest, I'm a little surprised this car is still here. For sale, I mean.

The price isn't so absurd that you can't touch it or drive it. But EVERYTHING is right and EVERYTHING WORKS. That's a GREAT starting point no matter what your goal is.

If you want to modify the thing, just remove and shrink-wrap the engine and put whatever you want in there. If you want to continue with a Top Flight car, I don't see that the price-of-entry can be any lower than this.

To purchase a car RESTORED to Top Flight status, you'd be paying twice this easily. Not because it's WORTH that necesarilly, but because it costs SO DARN MUCH to make a car that ISN'T like this car to LOOK like this car.

Like I said...this car has been available for 3 weeks. That's 2 weeks too long. Great car.

I am with you Keith, the price point isn't that scary for the kind of '73 that it is. This is a great looking Corvette.

I know we aren't supposed to talk about pricing in the thread and only help the conversation to move along in the thread, but I do have one question.

When was the last Top Flight Award given for this Corvette?

I have the same question. Also, does the A/C work?

Good Luck with your sale, I also own a 73, Love the unique body style, mine has had a few more miles under its wheels than yours (53,800) but turns heads wherever I drive it. I'm very interested to see where it goes.
I probably paid too much for mine and then sunk another $20k into it. Money, I know I'll never see back, but I just can't see doing something on the cheap as it has always come back to bite me later.
Again good luck with your sale.

Thanks Scarlett 73!

The Top Flight was done in 2009
The A/C needs a charge and it was never converted. Its still the original R12
