1971 ls6 convertible
Looking for some input on the value of my LS6 Corvette. I have just purchased a 1971 LS6 convertible, 4speed, pretty sure M22, I already owned the Engine, but have waiting for the car for 20 plus years. It is a running driving non perfect car now with a fresh small block engine. It has a clean NC title from the original owner. I am not really looking for help to sale the car, I just need an honest opinion of the current values on this rare gem.

I'd say it's probably worth what you paid for it, but have to ask - if you've been after it for 20 years and finally got your hands on it, does value really matter?
Congrats.
Congrats.

You need three things; the windshield pillar frame serial number, the engine pad, and the transmission serial number & code. Everything else is gravy

The value is greatly dependent upon the completeness with original parts. Does it have the unique flywheel and the dual-disc clutch? Correct alternator, carb, starter, smog system, etc? TI system still there? Previous body damage? The original air cleaner base is also unique—is it there? All that is necessary info. Warbonnet/saddle is a color that was very popular in the early 70’s. Also sent you a private message.
