Default Anyone Want To Sell A C3?

Looking for a '68 - '72 C3 chrome bumpers, any color
4 speed only
Any original motor
Numbers matching, if rebuilt, numbers must be visible
Coupe preferred
Survivor status and as original as possible
No problem with original paint flaking off or bleached to the primer
No problem if original interior worn and torn
As long as no hit body - and little or no heavy rust.
Maximum to spend: $20K

Thanks,
Norm

I'd be over your budget by a good bit but mine will be for sale due to empending college tuition. '70 coupe, L46, 4-speed. Engine bored 40 over, roller rockers, roller lifters. Power steering added, no power brakes but I have a kit that I never installed. No a/c.

Many years ago our corvette club was asked to provide cars for an article on the aerodynamics of C-1 through C-6 cars. Mine's the C3 that was featured. It would be interesting to continue the testing up to the current model.

I have a '70 Bridgehampton Blue Convertible with 454, 4 spd, AC AM/FM Stereo, tilt/tele, PS, PB, in good running condition but NOT a "survivor" by any means (repainted once that I know about, non-original interior pieces, but WITH original drive train).

She was for sale in 2013 when I got bounced out of Corporate America and was starting college tuition payments in 2014. Nobody bucked up, so I still have it. Drove it the day before yesterday in fact. I am open to offers as my wife and I are trying to pick our spot to leave this shit-hole liberal state, but I can tell you right now, $20K is not going to convince me to let it go. Do as you will.

It's not for me, trying to help out a bloke in the UK. He doesn't even care what it looks like, as long as it's all original.

I'd buy that, if it had tilt.
