Default Help with pricing

Help....I ended up halfway inheriting a brown 1976 Vette. The car is 100% original. It has 110,000 miles on it. 350 motor automatic. It's original down to the buyers order. The car will need a paint job good amount of interior work. And brake work. The car starts extremely easy and drives nice. It has factory power steering and a)c. I believe it's going to need bumpers. They are not coming apart but are slightly pitted. The only thing that has been bypassed is the keyed alarm. But all the components are still in place. The clock and original radio even works. I have no idea where to price it. I also have many years of service records. The only major replacement was the alternator which by the records was replaced by the dealership with an AC Delco. Thank you for any advice.

Welcome to the forum!

Some pictures would help people see the condition of the paint and bumpers. Since paint on these cars is so expensive and labor intensive to do it can greatly reduce its value if it’s bad. I would say somewhere between 5 and 10.

I'm working on pictures now. I would assume it's going to need gel coating. The fiberglass is blistered on the hood and t tops.
