Need advice if anyone can give it. Dollar value advice that is. I am aware of "If I want it get it", stuff.
1974 Medium Blue Roadster, silver leather option, auto trans. NO AIR - NO PB - NO PS. Is that rare or what?
Hardtop included. 62,431 original documented miles.
I will look at it later toay. I understand about condition, and what it takes to bring it up, as I just did a complete frame up on my 79 L82, and it sold FAST!
I am in south Florida, and you guys down here know what it is like with no air conditioning. However, I can add air and power steering for $2K, as this may be a keeper.
PRICE ? : He sez : $16,900.00. My offer ? $15,000, high end.But, offer depending on what I see today.
What I am asking you guys, is this appreciable material?
Adding air and PS takes away the originality, but wife has to drive it sometime, as she likes convertibles.
Any qualified answers or advice on VALUE is appreciated.

My opinion is that $15,000 is high for a 74 small block. Would not go any higher.
Check the NADA Guides (http://www.nadaguides.com/), the classic/muscle car category, and also Kelly Blue Book (http://www.kbb.com/) websites.
I don't know how current it is but here's a direct link (couldn't find the link on their main page) to a price calculator on Corvette Magazine's web-site (http://www.corvettemagazine.com/): http://www.corvettemagazine.com/CGI-BIN/CALCULATOR.ASP
