I'm a little confused. You currently have a C4 Corvette. You want a manual transmission C3 Corvette right? And you want it between $0 million and $15 million?

So I didn't hit the shift lever when I typed in the "m".

Now seriously are there any C3's for around $10,000 to $15,00 out there?

Oh yeah, they can be found under $5,000 but it really depends on what you want.

Do you want a coupe or convertible?

Numbers matching or don't care?

Do you want it finished or do you want a project car?

Do you like the chrome bumper C3s or the later non-chrome Vettes?

A '69 t-top driver with good interior and paint would be nice. But I won't see that in my price range. Anything up to '81 would be nice. So far I haven't seen any for under $9,000, and that was an utomatic.

The deals are out there. It just takes a lot of patience. A good education is to go on ebay and pull up the sold section.
