I agree, BUY IT. I have a 71' vert, paid about 19K for it a couple years ago and it's been a fun car.

My wife and I have admired a couple of silver C3s around here. I wonder if one of them was yours. That is a beautiful car. Have you had it at burger king on any Saturday nights?

Where do you have work done around here for anything that you don't do yourself?

It looks like this one will be mine soon.

Thank you and yes I do sometimes go to the Burger King cruise-in on Saturday nights.

Robert Tau Automotive is a great place to take your Corvette. He's a great guy and very reasonable with his pricing. He also owns and restores all types of vintage vehicles. He rebuilt my 4-speed and rear end.

And that is a very nice looking Corvette that your are going to buy. I hope to see it at the BK cruise-in.

Bryan

At $21,000 buy it. You can't buy a 67-70 Chevelle SS, Camaro SS/Z28, GTO for that money unless it is junk.

Corvettes are the last of the cheap muscle cars.
