Hey neighbor...I'm real close to St Clair Shores:)

No response cause maybe nobody wants to see you leave Vette Land and our forum:(

I am new at corvettes...no knowledge on value...I kinda think I got ripped off but oh well, I'm a big boy. Anyway I wouldn't even want to guess at your value since I might unintentionally insult you since I'm clueless on your year and mods:(

Good luck in either event. Hope you don't sell btw :confused:

Because your car isn't yet "finished" it's hard for anyone to give you a price range ... there are several price guides out on the web that could help a bit with a range but most assume that the car is finished. These are only guides as anyone will tell you ... its supply and demand. I did check some of the guides as well as what people were asking before I bought my '74 last year. Looking at NADA retail values ... looks like it runs from about $8K all of the way up to $24K depending on overall condition ... think about how your car fits or doesn't fit into one of these categories, and add your options in, but you'll have to deduct at least what it take to finish the car and then someone would have to be interested in getting it done, probably expecting a significant discount from you because it's not quite finished.

Value Explanations

Low Retail Value

This vehicle would be in mechanically functional condition, needing only minor reconditioning. The exterior paint, trim, and interior would show normal wear, needing only minor reconditioning. May also be a deteriorated restoration or a very poor amateur restoration. Most usable "as-is".

Note: This value does not represent a "parts car".

Average Retail Value

This vehicle would be in good condition overall. It could be an older restoration or a well-maintained original vehicle. Completely operable. The exterior paint, trim, and mechanics are presentable and serviceable inside and out. A "20-footer".

High Retail Value

This vehicle would be in excellent condition overall. It could be a completely restored or an extremely well maintained original vehicle showing very minimal wear. The exterior paint, trim, and mechanics are not in need of reconditioning. The interior would be in excellent condition. Note: This value does not represent a "100 Point" or "# 1" vehicle *.

Good Luck!
