Default A little advice

Hi. Maybe you guys can help. I'm trying to sell my Dad's 'vette. He passed away in April from cancer from agent orange exposure in Vietnam. We're trying to keep the house and pay it off. I need to Know what's a fair price and any advice on selling it. On the papers I have, for model, it says 1YX07-2014 CORVETTE. There's a long list of options. Dad said it belonged to a Chevrolet executive and has every option. It's green and has 7946 miles. I appreciate any help.

Create a post in the following section of the forum. List most of the options and ask for a suggested sales price. But don't advertise it for sale in that section of the forum.

Once you've got enough suggestions for asking price, go to this section of the forum and offer it for sale. Be sure to include an asking price.

And here's a link to the rules for selling cars & parts on the forum:

Thanks, Jeff. I have all the info and scanned it into the computer. I'm a little bit technologically challenged. Can I attach it like I would in an email?

Welcome to the forum, but regret you're having to join for this reason.
Vette_DD has you pointed the right direction with this.
Hope all goes well with selling your father's Corvette.
Please know we appreciate your father's service.

Very sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad.

It does not cost anything to sell a car on the forum, but there are some guidelines that must be followed in order to do so.

Vette_DD has given you some good advice on how to get an estimate of the car's worth and the third link he posted are the rules for selling cars. Be sure to pay particular attention to the part about selling a car that does not personally belong to you.

Best of luck with the sale.

I am going to close this thread and you can make a new post in the appropriate C7 section.
