Just last year the 2nd owner of an unrestored original paint survivor 71 LT-1 vette convertible with 80k miles on it was priced at $22k here in Prescott. I almost bought that one but 2 things stopped me. It was an unusual white exterior/green interior combo, and my wife decided that after 3 other corvettes she just didn't want another one. I looked that one over pretty good and was a pretty nice original car. That one sold shortly after and haven't seen it since.

They are still out there at very reasonable prices if you're patient and look hard enough.
Ya that one would have been too nice to do what i want. If that was a 300hp 350 with auto I would have not felt so bad...

That looks great. My first Corvette (circa 1998) was a Brands Hatch LS-5 with no options except the leather interior. I remember paying $8500 for that car and driving to Indiana with my uncle to get it. Talk about being on top of the world....

James, not only do you have a gifted eye in finding / restoring fine cars, your photography skills are superb, as well

Looks great with those reproduction bias-belted tires. How's it drive on those?
