Just one more opinion.
Is it really original paint? Don't forget there is a survivor class for these cars. It will need to be mostly all there, original engine, unmolested but some wear is accepted.

Vette(s): Silver 1974 Convertible - L82 4 speed Low miles (was only 8,900 when I bought it in March 2006) - Now 54K miles. Original owner bought it as an investment for son's college expenses. 2008 Jetstream Blue Convertible
Good point - if you can get it judged survivor, it could be worth more.  However, it doesn't sound like that's what you want it for, so that really doesn't matter.
 
One more thing - that Market Guide from Corvette Magazine also says to add $3,000 for factory A/C.  Seems like a lot to add to me... 

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Vette(s): 1972 conv., sunfire yellow, blk interior, blk vinyl and convertible top. Off frame restoration with American Speed 383 stroker engine producing 500hp plus a 200hp NOS system. MSD ignition. Hooker super competition headers with chambered exhaust.
Here's basically the same car with a fresh frame-off restoration. It only made it to $15,600.
