outside opinoins wanted
tomorow im going to post 20-25 pics of my vette (Kaye), 74-L-48, i just wanted to know what you guys thought of it, see what you think i could sell it for (im NOT, hopfully ever) just for my knowlege, see if u could see nething wrong, rust (i dont know what to look for exactally) i got 4-5 of the underbody, or what i could get a decent pic of, the rest is exterior and interior, i always see people posting pics of various things and others say things thay i would hav never even come close to looking at, just some outside views on things for my advantage
i know i know "y didnt you post the pics tonight" "dial-up" and this is my reminder, seeing as tho i hav a horrible memory

I noticed in pic1 the sway bar end links should be replaced. Rubber dried out, and pic 2 leaf spring rubber bushing very compressed and should be replaced. O/A the car looks clean. I'd es.t value 11-15 k range. Nice car,

Miles....I see you are 18. Congrats on having such a fine car at your age. Assuming that you have more time than money to put into this car, I'd put it up on jack stands and spend about a week under it with a wire brush. The drill mounted types work great. Be sure to wear safety glasses. Then get as much as you can painted with POR 15 or even a good quality spray primer with paint. This will preserve the underside metal until you do a "body off" restoration when your older. VB&P has poly kits to replace all of your cracked rubber components and they are not too much money. I'm not a big fan of your rear bumper but it you may be able to get that one lined up a little better than where it sits now. Read up here in the Forum (search) and you'll find a wealth of info on that topic. It never hurts to post questions too.
