71 Vert Question
Marine Corps son has a super nice 71 convertible,non-matching numbers. It appears his life is taking a turn that makes selling the vert a smart move. As a C4 guy I have no clue. Is there a market? What is the best method to sell? What is a reasonable price range? Thanks for any input.

Hope and pray his health is good not all busted up or something....
I dunno these days what a stock shark vert is worth....my guess is 15-20 grand....but then again gas is a bitch and all cars are getting hit HARD on values....

I have a nice '71 Roadster, with a 350 and 4-speed. I was recently offered 25 for it, but it has the original engine. I turned him down (I don't see my '71 ever being for sale). Despite what you hear about the economy, there are still a lot of people with a lot of money who are looking for cool old C3s.
