Hard to say without seeing the car. So much depends on the overall condition and mileage. I see 74-77s all the time from 4500-7500 dollars. I know a good paint job is expensive as is all the improvements we make to these cars. The problem is we rarely get out what we invest. The earlier chrome bumper cars and C2s do very well in the market. Our rubber bumper cars, not so  much. Based on your description, it sounds like yours is nice and will likely bring more than the average 74-77 out there. My 75 is all original and I know the entire history of it. It has been in my home state all it's life. I would say that mine is a 7500 -9500 dollar car. Hope this helps. Best of luck.

Not enough to give you an idea partner Smile

Mileage?
Rate the paint and body condition on a scale of 1-10.
Accidents in the past?
Engine updates?
Any chassis rust or damage?
Solid birdcage?
Shape of the trailing arms and mounting points?
Do the T-tops leak?
Brakes - any wet calipers ? Solid pedal? Stops well?

A couple of pictures would be useful as well.

Thanks

Paul

John,

Sorry to see you are seeing her after all of the stuff you have done to restore / upgrade her over the years. Hope this is another upgrade to a different vette....

I have to agree with the other fellows about some additional info and a pic or 3 being helpfull. I know it has Firethorn interior but thats it. I don't think you have ever mentioned the body color.

Trouble with the rubber bumper cars is the General really pumped em out and there are still quite a few cruisin around.

But..... times are changein and the value is slowly turning around as the C4's are real affordable drivers.

That being said it might be worthwhile to hang on to her a little while longer. I think the bottom has already dropped and the only way to go now is up.

                                                             take care, Tux... Tuxblacray2010-02-21 23:33:48

Here is a web site that lists Corvettes for sale from all over the internet.  It serves as a reference to what people are asking for them, even if it doesn't tell what they actually sold for.
