Default Re: Astronaut Corvette

It's a shame, too. With the original trim tag and the factory paperwork the car has (tank sticker I believe), the value wouldn't have been hurt much at all without the original engine. The "killer on the car" is the replaced trim tag. You can't fake those. If the car had a restoration engine, but the original trim tag and a tank sticker with a nice restoration, it would be worth $300,000 to $400,000 with the famous ownership history. Bill, I may be right on that one, but that will all change when I get home tonight. My wife will put me in my place.........
