Default 72 Convertible for Sale

I am in hurry to sell this; but would entertain it if I had a reasonable offer. I have a nice driver quality 1972 Convertible Corvette. It isn't perfect, but very nice for a driver car. A couple of highlights:

• 1972 is the last year of dual chrome bumpers (helps with collectors)
• Numbers matching original engine (350) (helps with collectors)
• Both a matching paint hardtop (helps with collectors) and a new black convertible top
• You can pay upwards of $2k just for the hardtop on ebay
• Nice showing red paint (original color blue)
• New carpet, door panels and stereo (retro look with modern sound)
• Manual brakes, manual steering
• Lights come up and down as they should
• Several thousand spend in mechanical work over the last two years to get it running as it should
• Good tread on the tires
• Appraised value of $30k (I have the appraisal)
• I currently have $27,700 in the car (I have all receipts)
• I wouldn't entertain an offer of less than $25,000 (firm)

NADA Value ranges from $25,500-$61,900: http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Ca...ertible/Values

A couple of flaws worth noting. The soft top doesn't align with the windows, about a 1/8" gap in spots. It leaks a little oil/brake fluid. Nothing material, normal for a 1970s Corvette.

Numbers:
Trim -- 400 -- Black Vinyl
945 -- Paint Briar Blue
VIN - 1Z67K2S501905
K -- Made inJune1972
501905 -- The 40,1905 car Chevy made in 1972
Engine Casting Number -12S show contact info KX
1 -- Chevy
2 -- Model year -- 1972
S -- St. Louis
501905 -- matches the vin, engine original to the car
CKX -- Base 350, 200 HP Rochester Q-Jet

I have the car paid for and enjoy it. $25k is probably a reach for re-sale value. To be honest any less and I'd prefer to just keep the car.

Note -- the white top in the pictures is the original (pretty beat up); the current new one is black. I also just added a map pocket and new brake cover.

Located in Kimberly, WI (54915) South of Green Bay.

Thanks,

Looks like a nice car. You should probably add the frame and birdcage description to your ad. Good luck
