Of course, without getting into the millions of variables, from the hip I'd say a number two car $18K-$25K.
Share some pics, you'll get more precise numbers.

Unless #2 condition means the whole underside of the car looks like number 2.

Car has been frame off restored several years ago.
Car was a top flight car approx 5 years ago.
It has the dealer installed luggage rack which I'm not a big fan of.

Hi lc,
"Car was a top flight car approx 5 years ago."
Often getting a look at the Flight Judging sheets will offer some guidance as the what a person might be willing to/should pay for the car.
Are the sheets available to you?
Regards,
Alan

Not enough info provided, but in general, a nice stock air roadster? I don’t think 33 is terribly out of line.

hagerty shows a #2 71 roadster with those options as around 48K. of course it depends entirely on what your definition of #2 is. and finding a buyer willing to pay hagerty's estimate, which in general, is about 20% higher than what folks on this forum say a car is worth.
a top flight does not mean original engine.. which can skew the price +-25%. you do need to look at the judging sheets to see if it got points for the stamp pad.

Btw, when I bought my 70' I used this app along with Corvette Black Book and a few other auto sites and shot the guy a number and my limited inspection skill and trusted my gut instinct. I may have got a good deal, I might have over paid but in the end I'm good with it. I now own it, have it stripped apart, can't decide what direction to go ( LOL ) but it keeps my mind busy instead of turning to mush. I hope I finish it and I hope it runs. Other than that it's all good.
Good Luck and enjoy whatever it is you buy. After all it's a "Corvette" and they don't write songs about Volvos.
