I will admit to being partial to orange, but maybe this gives you the oportunity to buy/build the vette you've always wanted. Good luck with your decision.

How much will it cost you to replace it? Including labor of anything you've done like rearend or steering.
After all whats the point in selling it if you don't buy another?

had a '69 (plain Jane) go for $13k here recently, wish I would have seen it. I think that it was a 20 footer - maybe even a 30 footer dont know the whole story.

If I could get 15K for any one of my Vettes I am pretty sure I would sell in a heart beat. Take a look at my webpage.

Sell it. You can get a chrome bumpered one here on the east coast for $15K, or less. Maybe a little more where you are. Sell it!

I think I would sell. I love my car but for $15,000, 1cool80 would be 1gone80.
