Some help please.
A good friend who's helping me with my build (another boat guy like me) told me today he wants to sell his 1970 350/350 4 spd convertible. Frame off resto, factory yellow with black interior. I've seen the car, it's beautiful and a legit #'s matching car. Computers and the internet are something he does NOT do.He's a little older than me, (I'm 53) and gave me all the pics, I mean photographs, of the entire restoration.
I have two problems, one, I asked him what he wants for the car and he does'nt know, two, no images right now. I spoke with him today and he agreed to bring it by so I can post pics.
I had told him I could try to find a price, but I don't want to get in hot water with the moderators by posting the car without a price.
Car is out here in eastern Long Island in the Hamptons. (no jokes please, some of us work for a living.) If there is a forum member out here that can look at the car and assist him, one of you guys will most likely end up with a sharp example of 70 vert for a fair price. Did I mention he's also got the hardtop?
Feel free to PM me as I would like to keep this open to forum members. Thank's, Vince

So post it in the General section as a 'What's it worth thread'. Without pics it sounds like a $25K-$33K car, but the market is still pretty soft.

If you do that you should get lots of opinions (some will contradict 
) but this sounds like it could be a really nice car. A chrome bumper convertible 350/350 4 speed with nice colors even in this depressed market is still very desireable.

Hi LIC3,
There are many, many, knowledgable Corvette people in the N.J., N.Y., Conn., L.I., area.
If this car is as serious as you descrbe, I don't think the market for 70 350/350 convertible will be soft.
People will need to see the facts, and pictures, to get them interested.
Good Luck!
Regards,
Alan
