Rare 74 vert
Not my car and I admit I know little about 74 verts

It would seem from the ad the seller is very savvy and is giving this one away at a steal of a deal.....

L48= minus on value
New paint, new front bumper = $7-8K
I doubt the interior is original
Very nice car, but not really a bargain price
Similar car here with an LS4 sold for 15K
J in VIN means L48 not convertible, BTW.

Wondering how he was able to determine that only 531 4spd conv were produced.
Thought there were no number combinations compiled.

$14,500 is a great price. The car is an unmolested survivor.

I wonder what kind of evidence the new owner will need to give to Robert to prove he's a 'collector'. It would be a shame if someone who wanted the car missed out because he doesn't qualify.
