Hi Jeremy,
Is your Vette a 4-speed or an automatic?

Guys, 
If there are any events in Nj like Paul's BBQ or any other get togethers, i will try to meet up.  I can still take the car out but now i am just willing to part with it if the price is right. i am NOT selling it at some real cheap price.

Realisticly, i drive the car three times a year and since I am married with three kids under 4 years old. I just dont have time anymore.  I could use the money to take care of some new dreams of mine done to my property and house. 

talk to you all soon.

Jeremy

I was just offered 12K cash for my car. Was I nuts to turn it down?  Not sure what my exact value of my car is.  Any sites out there I can find the value of it?  Kelleysbluebook only goes back so far, nothing in the 70s.
