Just out of interest, (and a TTT) why has there been no interest in this one at all? I mean, it is a great price. Are all you restoration experts seeing or thinking something you could share?
Good luck with the sale.

I don't pretend to know, however, there is a blue '73 near my house that looks like a real nice car, and mostly original, that is asking $8400 and has been for sale for months. In other words, I don't think it is anything with this particular car. It appears to me that demand for '73 small block coupes has been low or declining, so they have not been pulling big prices recently to begin with. Combine that with the fact that a harsh winter is still holding on and the economy is so in the crapper and I think cars like this are presently moving very slowly unless they are at fire sale prices. I think patience will win out in the end for the sellers, if they have the luxury of not needing to sell.
My daughter is a few years away from driving, but she loves my Corvette. I have been teasing her a little lately that with the prices of '73s being what they are, her first car might be a '73 small block coupe. She is OK with that as long as I do all the work!

Where was this car this time last year? I ended up with an 87 Vette.
I would have loved to have gotten it.
My first Vette was a 73, it is, at lest in my opinion, the best looking of the C-3 Generation. It has the smoothest lines of all.
