I find it super cool that even though you desire to sell it you still care about it,

Customs, even ones just paint or skin deep are many times only truely loved by their creator, yours from the picture seems a nice 70s paint theme not too far from jobs place like motion and avlis did,

I do believe that while it might take longer to sell as is, might not, in the long run i doubt you will loose a penny on it leaving the paint as is, someone will dig the history, people dig old scool customs,

Bone stock is not the majority any longer more c3s are modded, perhaps the mods are not radical but if its not the way chevy made it...its a mod.

Do you have any more photos...side shots, rear 1/4 shots you could post?
I think it looks way cool as a period mild custom...initials on the doors notwithstanding...
Curious to know what you'd think of asking for it.

Ok, that's enough to convince me, leave as is.

I appreciate all the response.

I'll try and post more pics if I have time next week. Leaving for a quick spring break vacation with family today.
