I just purchased this C5R hood from a collector. It was purchased at the Corvette Museum at an auction some time ago. The collector is deceased and at this time the family has not been able to locate the paperwork. It has been signed by many people and at this time im not sure who all it is. I am wondering if anyone has any idea of a market value on something like this. Thanks in advance.

Marc - Hard to say what an item like that could be valued at. Have you tried to check with the Corvette Museum and see if they can share what the hood sold for at auction - not sure if that info is held private or not. Would be worth a try - all they can say is they can't disclose the price.
The family has been in contact with the museum and they have not been able to find any paperwork however they did confirm it was sold there for a St. Jude charity auction. I’m hoping I can afford to keep it, I have always favored the black and silver C5R over the yellow ones.
I also am getting Dana Forrester original water color paintings. In total there are 10.
One other really cool item is this Andy Pilgrim pit bike and the fender from the Cadillac CTSV.
