Default Is a 1977 worth much

1977 corvette with matching numbers. L48 with 3spd trans. Little to no rust and 73k original miles. Only things done to it is: headers, radio, wheels and tires and tinted mirrored glass t tops.

What’s the worth of this vette?

I have a 77, L82, 350 4 speed, gymkhana suspension, red, black interior.
Wouldn't want to add up what I've spent on it over the years.
So, to me, priceless.
You, looking at purchasing one. Very little info and no photos. On a car this old there a a great number of variables that would dictate value.
You say it's a 3 speed, but they didn't make one in 77 so let's assume that your looking at an automatic.
L48 auto, bottom end of the spectrum.
Bird cage condition? Frame condition? Leaks? Quality of the interior? Glass? Brakes? Suspension bushings? Etc, Etc.
throw a guess out there, 5k -12 k.

Without clear, multiple photos and more detail, the answer is probably somewhere between $5k-$12k. More or less.
