        We had a 1972 conv. with a/c LT-1 asking price 18,500 in our local paper
        past two weeks. I spoke to seller at length after car was already sold a
        few days earlier. Seller owned it for over 20 years. Well kept.
        Didn't realize it's true value till after sale. He also didn't know
        about NCRS.
        I also met a 1957 owner last weekend at a local small car show,who didn't know of NCRS. I tried to give him some starting NCRS information.
        I work in a large book store so I meet car owners off and on.
        I guy came in last week looking for a book on assembly of a 1966 conv,
        big block. Was recently purchased from a shop owner who had cancer who had it for quite few years, car is apart big time.
        So, these cars are still out there....we all have to keep looking, hunting
        etc...

          Yea, BUT, That add is just tooooo obvious, "Take it to a junk yard", RIGHT. And he says that his dad is a pack rat. Now that clean shed is not owned by a pack rat.

            Wayne,

            A 1968 428 Cobra Jet, with the original PolyGlas tires, 24K original miles, all there (except the original pricey carb was gone), sold out of a shed in a nearby neighborhood on Craigslist a couple of months back for a ridiculously cheap price. Very nice original interior. Only one slightly dented quarter panel. Even the original red paint looked like it could be buffed out, just covered with dirt from years of sitting. All numbers were correct, and it was real.

            As for this Corvette, I would have to see the car to believe it. But, it's possible, even if unlikely.

            Dave

              A few months ago I bought a brand new, fully operational pico brewery (one order of magnitude smaller than a microbrewery) at a well advertised live auction.

              I paid six cents on the dollar. My only competition was a scrap metal dealer, no one else had a clue what it was or it's worth. Otherwise I would have got it for one cent on the dollar.

              The bargains are out there folks.
