Vette(s): 1974 T-top 454/400 auto w/delux interior, power windows, white w/black int.,American Racing mags w/Goodyear tires. previously owned... 1969 convertible - 427/390 auto w/hardtop 1965 coupe - 327/300 4 spd
There are a lot of things to consider here...
- what has it been sitting on, cement or dirt?
- depending on above, what shape is the frame in?
- do the headlights fit even all around?
- does the windshield leak?
- brakes are likely seized up, brake lines and gas lines could be rotten
- if it hasen't been run for 10 yrs, motor could be rusty or seized

If you can address these questions, you would have a better feel for the true value of the car.
