Keep an eye on the Pittsburgh Craigslist. A lot of decent mid-70s sharks show up on there. Here are a few recent ones that may be a little above your range, but it will give you an idea that they do turn up:

Thanks, planned on calling tonight. I looked at that one in Connellsville off Craigslist. It was not good.

Thanks, its been on Craigslist for a while too. Its a 4 speed and I am committed to an automatic (so wife can drive it, or its no vette for me).

Keep them coming, I will say I drove an 88 C4 convertable about 2 hours ago that was very nice for price and rode/drove better than any C3 yet. I still like the looks of C3 best but that vert got me thinking.

That one in Gridstone was a decent 20 footer, it at a little car lot, owner painted it himself (lots of flaws), inside wasn't to bad. Thing that scared me was big gobbs of weld/something on the frame at kick-ups in front of rear wheel. Said he fixed it himself.
