I have wondered that, too. Why Chevelles and Camaros often bring more money. Having a back seat makes it appeal to a larger number of buyers who have family and need the extra room. Also they are easier to get in and out of. A big factor for us senior citizens

Wondering what color that is? I do not recall that color in '72. If anything it looks like '69 Riverside Gold.

I was looking at the gold car. I am familiar with Bryar Blue, had a '72 LT1 convert that color. To me it is prettiest of the blues.

Watching that blue '72 for original comparison. Curious to see how much it brings.

71, I don't think this 72 is as nice as your all original 71.

Thanks jr. That's a rough looking 68K miles, but 51 bids in less than 2 days is pretty impressive, up to $15,200.
Looks like eBay is the way to go to sell a Corvette.

Surprised myself thought it would reach at least 25k. Even though it is a little rough it is all original and all there. I don't believe it sold for that , I could be wrong will keep an eye if it is on eBay again.

$25K? You're more generous than me...I was surprised to see go to $17.9K.
Based on your estimate, I might be able to get at least $35K for mine in this soft C3 market.
