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.

It's the EV of the pizza world.

That's my assessment too.... And, complete restomods (still bringing good money) are a different category. One-off additions or partially modded cars, not so much.

I ask because I don't currently own a truck or trailer so if I bought it I would drive it home.
Why do you all feel the need to down on the car, and since he built it, MrVette too? I often feel like I somehow got transported back to the 6th grade when reading the comments here.

When someone asks an opinion question, there are two options. Truth or Lies.

Nothing else.

In my opinion, no one should ask for an opinion unless they are prepared to hear the worst of the worst. Anything above that, is a plus.

In this case, you have a rock solid point. The answers "should have been" numbers, not comments.

paint has suffered the usual wear over the few years.....but from tires up, it's totally custom, both mechanically and cosmetically......and the rag top is tired....it drives ok, but it's a DD use for some years now, spending more days in the garage than even a 2 mile trip.....

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

If I was in the market for a C3, I would be looking for something pretty much stock, at least in appearance. That said, I believe this car would be a very tough sell and would probably take considerable time.

I have seen reasonably clean early 70's C3's in the high teens. I would say 10k on that one tops, and you would have to find the right buyer.

If Mr.Vette likes it, that's really all that matters.

Has it sold yet??

You made the car better for you. Nothing wrong with that.

Reminds me of discussions I have had about taking out a bathtub in a house and people say it will impact the resale value. I didn't buy the house for the NEXT owner. I bought it for ME.

The problem with custom Corvettes is you cut your buying audience down to about 10% that will like what your vision of a custom is. In today's world if it's not a restomod that looks mostly stock it's not going to fetch much and certainly not as much as a stock one would.

This is the ass that started it all and is by far more sexy because of the round tail lights.

Without debate, this is the MOST FINEST ass of any Corvette with round tail lights!!

Although I love the '63 Split Window, which is my favorite body style of any Corvette, the ass just doesn't quite make it for me. Yes, it looks good but the Chrome bumper C3 ass end is, to me, the best looking by far.

Edit - BTW, that's my car in the picture not some internet copy and paste so I do own one.

Need the proper license plate to complete.
There. Now you can drive it around town...

I think the C3 is the best looking corvette ever made. They all have their design advantages and disadvantages, and of course some have mechanical advantages.
