Since you asked, yes, I think the car is overpriced. Especially at the $60K you were first asking. $60K will get nearly a show car for a chrome bumper C3; I've looked at a lot of them.

You have a good reputation as an honest seller, so that's not a problem. The car does need work and if I were going to buy a C3 for $60K or even $48K, I'd expect it to be completed. Green color is also a drawback, to me at least.

Put the car at $20K and it will sell instantly so, yes it's the price. More pics should help.

Selling the car at $20K, not gonna happen my friend. The $60k price was overpriced but you can always lower a price, never raise. No hurry to sell the car, it will sell. Thanks for you so honest opinion. Cheers

I never suggested that you list the car at $20K, that number was used as an extreme to show the car is priced too high. And I only mentioned the price because you asked. If something like a collector Corvette is not selling, it is always the price because there is a demand for the product in about any condition. You've dropped the price 20% so it is more likely to sell- that's stating the obvious.

Similarly you've had to drop the price on your 66 which has been listed for 10+ months. That is an absolutely beautiful car but too expensive for the market.

Market conditions also change. Hold on to it and the value could spike again, but from what I have observed, the C2 and C3 Corvette market has been level if not falling a bit with some exceptions like resto-mods, L88's and high end restorations.

To remove this car from my temptation, I'll be nearby mid-February. If you'd like an independent look, PM me.

Oops, mean't to offer this to Scrrem, not derekderek. Besides, wouldn't kick the tires. Probably burn a lot of life out of them though

Hey joe,
Depending on how much time you have in life, get the car together and running decent and bring it out to Corvettes at Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
It will sell out there. One of the biggest Corvette marketplaces on Earth. Lots of Car Corral spaces and people buying and selling.
Trying to sell on this forum is tough....

Car is not really a project car. I used that term to make sure the car meets all expectations. Still have it.
