Jerry,

An interesting car, with J50, A31 & U69 options. I like the Brands Hatch green color. The dark green vinyl interior is second in rarity. It is missing the A.I.R. emissions system, as well as the proper steel vacum advance tube.

Although it has GM of Canada documentation, it is weak on original factory docs. It has original owners manual and apparently the original emissions label [although not attached to the car]. I would prefer to have more GM paperwork to go with the car. Along with an original blue certification label, instead of a replacement.

Since the owner seems to think that the M22 is quite rare, the potential buyer should check to be sure this car still has its original MA6 clutch set-up. That would be a difficult item to try and piece together if it is missing.

I will watch it as well.

I think the same car ( LS6, M22, Green/Green) is listed on the "Corvettes for Sale" C3 section for $120800.

That price may be a little optimistic.

Yes it was, however I did not have all the options that it apparently was built with. I was able to fill in some missing information.

I think that price was real reasonable for these times. One hell of a car for similar money paid for restored L-71's and even possibly some 1970 LT-1 convertibles.
