Default For Sale: Project 1968 Corvette Coupe 427 4spd

Up for sale is my rust free, damage free fiberglass, 1968 Corvette 427 4 Speed A/C T-Top Coupe. The stripping of the paint on the car has been started. The doors and front clip have been stripped. The back quarters and back end need to be stripped of paint.
The original color combo on this car is Safari Yellow body with black interior. The engine is out of the car sitting on a pallet after being rebuilt by a machine shop. The vin is stamped into the engine along with the IL for engine code and another stamping showing it is to a 4 speed car which the 4 speed is still installed. The car has the recessed square headlights with plexi covers over opening (1 is missing). I also have an original set of pop up lights with vacuum bottles (entire front clip actually). Interior is dirty and needs new upholstery but I do have a new set of upholstery for the seats. Car is located in northern California outside of Sacramento and Placerville ca. I Decided to let it go because I am a Ford Mustang/pantera Guy and not a C3 Guy. Priced at $16,000. EXTRA Parts go with the car.

Forgot to mention. Willing to consider trades or partial trades for a vintage Mustang fastback, mach 1, or 1971 Cuda, or up to a pantera, jalpa, or mangusta.
