If that's the car you're asking about, I would adjust my previous range upward

More information, pictures. The car should be worth more than I would have guessed with the limited info in the first post. Just my opinion, I think it's worth much more than 45, and it may bring 65, just not from me. It looks like a very nice car and I'd love to own it.

I'd be very surprised if Greg would take $65K for that car. I bought this one from him in April and I didn't get it for $65K.

http://www.vintagecorvettes.com/1967white.html

Was it worth it? Probably not to some. But it was to me because it's what I wanted and I'd waited a long time for it.

"What is a car worth?" is an interesting question. Kind of like "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I don't think any of the C6's are worth the money they get because they just aren't my cup of tea.

Anyway, Greg Wyatt's cars are not cheap but you can be sure that all of his cars are good and he does stand behind them. I had a thread on here where he delivered my car to my house from his store (which is 500 miles away) and then returned to pick it up, take it back to his store to replace the shifter, and return it back to me. There was no charge to me for that and I didn't even have to ask him to do it. As soon as I told him about the problem, he said he'd send his guy back with the trailer to pick it up. That kind of service and reputation made the price I paid worth it to me (but, like I said, it may not be worth it to others.)

Everything since the first post makes this car go up in value in my opinion. You should give all the information the first time to get a more accurate range. I don't see ANYTHING wrong with this car, I just can't spend the money it's worth.

I fell in love with that white coupe about a year ago, it wouldn't take much to bring it up to top flight again
(it's been a trailer queen for 18 years) but sadly out of my price range.
You don't hear many "good dealer stories" so glad your happy, it's a nice car you got there.

Last "top flight" was 18 years ago.
From memory of a phone conversation almost a year ago, it was just general detailing, nothing serious.
I imagine the worst case scenario would be some minor oil leaks from lack of use, if anything.
I would still get an inspection buy a knowledgeable forum member if you can't check it out yourself.
Good luck
