Default Re: Value of 68 L78

This is an interesting thread since I'm just now finishing the car I started 6 yrs ago. If color truly has any influence on the value, does Corvette Bronze hurt or help the value? It seems to me that the people in the hobby seem to be fond of the color but the Sat. night crusin' crowd has not been. Just curious. Kevin

I take Corvette Bronze over red personally.

68 is the softest year and a non orig engine hurts. I think 60K is high. Red red is really cool especially if it is red deluxe. Corvette Bronze is one of my favorite colors.

Three or four years ago I got a response from a gentleman that had a 68 L78 survivor Corvette Bronze original paint 20K mile car he was looking to sell. Here are some pics:




I ended up bying the Lemans Blue car but this one sure was beautiful. Does anyone know this car?

Paul:
I think the Corvette Bronze car is one I looked at in Ohio in about 2000. Nice car. I think engine had been fluffed and had been out - a little too much detailing for me to consider it a true survivor (I'm picky that way). That seller was not happy I didn't buy the car at about $35k - a premium at that time.
