Well, it might have been worth something if he hadn't let it rot into the ground for the past 30 years.

Off topic, but does anyone here know where I can get my hands on a credit card machine? The dirtier the better, preferably.

Too generous, but that is you.
In 1970, I cut my self (literally) on my older brother's '69 rs/ss z28 302,
installing the pressure plate of the flywheel. He had blown the engine driving down to boot camp in Kentucky, following his friend in a '67 BB corvette. New short block 302, Dropped the plate on my arm, and it slid down to the bone right above the wrist. Looking at the half dollar crescent as I type.
Memories, glad I have them.

Normally.. I would agree with you. But a fuel fitting blew on this, and sprayed fuel all over the engine compartment. So, there's that.

I always thought the '67/68 was the best looking body. Haven't had one yet. Had '69's (my first car was a '69) and lots of Gen II & III cars. The '67/68 just had the cleanest lines IMO.
