so lets keep it honest and lo price estimates.....

Why do you need the valuation? For insurance or to sell? I would guess around $10,000 to $15,000 if it is mechanically good. If you are looking to sell, the biggest issue is finding an interested buyer to come look at it.

I'm not sure you've seen the whole thing.

damn, I don't want to sound like an asshole (which is usually pretty challenging) but that sumbitch is one hell of a hack job!

Damn. Those taillights are almost as bad as C7 taillights.

Yeah but it's kinda like a not so good looking broad, not the prettiest thing but there's something about her that makes her attractive.

Yes, every once in a while I run into one of them. I call it, she has "the look."

As you said, maybe not the most beautiful woman out there, but she has that femininity just coming out of her pores. Very girly, very sexually attractive in a primal sort of way. Many of them I don't think are aware of it either.



As for the above Vette, it's certainly different and not so bad, for the right person.

Thanks.

Highway Patrol would feel better if it was trailered

Small block C3's never took off in value (unless it was a LT-1). Sure, they are more than they used to be but compared to big block Vettes, the prices stayed fairly low. I sold my last C3 Vert, matching numbers 68 in Excellent condition with 18" rims, stainless side exhaust for $20k in 2020 during COVID. That's what I paid for it in 2015. I tried selling it since 2019 but nobody was interested at the $24k that I listed it for. Again, that car was in stunning condition and drove fantastic BUT it was a BASE C3 Vert with no AC and no power brakes. Only option was power steering. High optioned cars go for more but small block C3 values are not great.

While I don't personally care for some of the mods on Gene's car, especially the tail and head lights, the work appears to be very well done from the photos. Unfortunately as others have stated many older mods just aren't popular now, which makes the demand and price go down.

Stick to talking about Teslas. Nobody cares about what you say about anything else.

Yep, there's an ass for every seat. Of course that ass currently owns the car.

I didn't say that you weren't qualified to talk about C3's. It's just that
nobody cares. We only want you to talk about Teslas and other EV's. And pizza with no meat.

So, you like to get some meat? I'm straight and not into meat unless it's a good steak

When I make homemade, I line it with bacon and pepperoni.
