That sounds like a great price to me if it's as nice as he described. As we know sometimes that's a little off :mad
If you let it slip away I'll sell mine and go get it :D

Rick, you will find lots of small pics in the 1970 Corvette Registry.
http://www.1970corvetteregistry.org/
Just click on a block of VIN numbers to the right, and scroll down through
the mix. There are small pics of black on green verts.
Donnybrooke ?sp? green is the most popular exterior in the database,
so you should be able to find a few pics.

It is a medium to dark metallic green. My '70 was this color - still on the door sills.

Good luck with this one !! :yesnod:
The price is right . :yesnod: :yesnod:
:seeya

That's an EXCELLENT price for a '70 L46 vert w/A/C if its in good condition & matching #s. You didn't mention if its a matching # car.

Heres' my website:

Rick,

When I bought my car a couple of months ago I was "watching" a '70 BB 390 hp vert with 4spd in the Seattle area. Now given, it was in excellent condition, but bidding was @ $23k when I dropped off the radar.

Bob

Wow is that thing jacked up or what? Even with my air shocks I can't get mine that high. Very nice car though.

Rick, $11k is a decent price for a generic chrome bumper shark convertible. The 350/350 hp is a desireable option and A/C is a valuable option. The presence of A/C can add $1k to $2k (I am guessing) to the value of a car even if it is not working! As a fringe benefit, if you get a 70 convertible Juliet can tell you how to fix anything on the car (except maybe the 4spd) :lol: MJ

Nice pic of "green" above, but expect your car to have rally wheels.

This is the ultra-rare Duntov All Wheel Drive Off-Road option, RPO code FU2. It included locking hubs, Rancho springs and Monroe airshocks. Only one car was built with this option which makes it even more rare than the fabled ZL-1. I'm surprised everyone doesn't know this.
