Re: Corvette Question...
Looks to me as though the current bid of 77K is right at where one would expect to see it sell for. That's about the price I have seen others being for sale at.

Re: Corvette Question...
My guess is that part of the difference in value was that the additional "35" horsepower came with a "wink" from the boys at Chevrolet. Just my $0.02 (pre-tax, of course)

Re: Corvette Question...
Actually a real 390 ac roadster will bring alot more than 77K....and a 400 tripower air roadster will be about equal to the 435.... if you have one of these cars market it to the people in florida.

Re: Corvette Question...
No mention of paperwork. I would inspect the car and look for all the necessary big block signs. Owner states "not a restamp" and this is better than saying just a matching numbers car. The picture of the pad is certainly not good enough to make a determination on the stamp. A better shot would be helpful.

Re: Corvette Question...
I think the top bid of $83,100 was reasonable for this undocumented big block car. I don't think he'll do any better than that.
