Here are a couple of pics of the 77 corvette I just bought.  I ended up giving $6000 for the car.  Do you think I got an alright deal? kskevin77vette2007-05-31 03:00:25

Congratulations on the purchase. Is this your first Vette? Show some pics of the motor and interior.
 
It feels good to own one regardless of the cost.

Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

If your happy, its a good deal.  If it runs out well and is a 5 footer or better, its an even better deal.

Looks like a gud deal to me! Congrats!
Price sounds about normal, also. Low enough you can afford to do some repairs as needed.

Vette(s): 2004 Commemorative Edition Coupe, Auto w/HUD. 13K miles in 2015. Sold 1982 Red Coupe

Does everything work or do you have some things to fix?

How is the frame and other steel parts?
 
How many miles on her?
 
How does she run?
 
4spd or auto?
 
Looks good from here.
 
This is the place to get and give C3 info.
 
Best of luck to you and your "new" vette.

If the frame is solid and straight, it cranks and drives, and the paint is presentable then you got a good deal. It looks good in the pics that you posted. Enjoy it and improve it as you move forward. Congratulations!
