Sold a 1972 454 car last year for about $15k usd .Also like the looks and had a 1965 roadster years ago. Other than looking for rust on the frame and birdcage be aware the AC never works well ,miles of vacuum hoses affect headlight opening ,wipers,
heat/ac etc etc. Wire harness behind dash requires major dash surgery to get at anything . Look for one as completely restored as you can afford as any issues will grow to huge before you stop. The corvette industry has so much available anything you replace makes everything else remaining look shabby. Mine was numbers matching original engine but wrong color in and out due to a repaint many years ago.. Lots of torque but low on real power after comp dropped in 1971. If buying again I would seek a 1969 or 1970 350 hp 350 4 speed roadster
Also forgot like many 1960,s 70,s cars they are much nicer to look at than actually drive.
