‘72 is sold.
The ‘69: expensive, 3 pictures? Really. Id have to get the right year rockers on there first thing.
‘71 Coupe, lots of pics of the same thing, no engine shot. Price is a good start, nice color. Do you want sidepipes?
If you prefer a coupe, then no need for the convertible. I like that one best by far though.

i like the 72 with AC. next I like the 71 coupe.
i agree I think the 69 is too high. I think the 71 vert is on the high side too. dont get me wrong its a beautiful looking car with great history, but you say up front you dont want to be upside down, and i think that car is at the top of the market. there is no place to go but down.
I really enjoy driving my 68 base engine auto coupe

I think you should look for a C3 Vette just about anywhere but FB Marketplace......
Try Cars-on-Line.com Hundreds of them with real ads.
I feel that anyone posting a C3 Vette or any classic car for sale on FB marketplace is exactly the kind of person I do not want to buy a car from.
If you want a serious car....buy from an educated serious seller.
