Assuming there is no rust...if you clean it up, I bet you could get around 10k on ebay.

"Corvette Magizine" says $10,500 if it needs TLC, and to add $5,000 if it has 454 and $1500 for A/C.

I would have thought at least high teens for a BB 4-sp 71. Depends on other options (a/c, p/s, p/w, etc.) I guess. Also how much rust in the frame and birdcage. And how well the interior looks and it cleans up overall.

Image is everything. Clean it up. The better you make it look the more $$ you'll get.

If the engine was rebuilt, did they shave the engine stamp pad?
