A fair price is how bad you want it and how much you are willing to pay.

If you just want to read it, get it free as a download
http://corvette-world.com/downloadable_manuals.php

ecklerscorvette.com has manuals, @$30. And look at ebay, probably get one for even less.

Better yet, buy a Factory Service Manual.

I purchased mine on eBay for ~$25. It was in perfect condition.

I notice that there's a seller on eBay that has "reproduction" manuals for less than $20.

Good luck with the search
