Answer 1

If you love it and can afford it, then you should get the lowest price that they will settle on and drive it home and admire it.

It's hard to put an accurate price on a car like that. If both you and the seller are happy with the price, then it's fair enough.

Answer 2

Thomas:

Our Corvette price guide has an Average 1973 Convertible Corvette valued at $18,000 and the high is at $23,000. Appreciation is under 5% year to year.

Contrary to the belief that they are a dime a dozen, only 4,943 convertibles were made in 1973 and it was the last year for the Chrome bumper.

Only two optional engines were offered, the L82 350ci/250hp and LS4 454ci/275 hp. Neither of which will significantly change the value of the Corvette.

You'll want to make sure the car is "matching numbers" ie the VIN sequence number matches the number stamped on the engine pad. If not, deduct 20% from the value.

Take it to a classic car dealer and have it appraised or contact someone in one of the Corvette Clubs. You can go online to find a Corvette Club in your area. A true Corvette lover will drive over to see if its the real deal. Or contact GM and tell them about your car, they may have someone there who will be more than happy to take this off of your heads of a great price.

My father bought a '76 Stingray for $5,000 but it needed a lot of cosmetic work and a new engine. The tranie was gone, the head gaskets were shot. But now it is awesome.

It sounds absolutely beautiful.

Make sure whomever you sell it to appreciates its beauty.

73 started with all that pollution crap. the engines were 350 or 454. hp 250 or 275 engine codes cld clh clr cls cwm cwr cws cwt. paint code for blue is 922 or 927 for dark blue.look up NCRS on line and ask if someone will look at it for you. if you have to pay $200 keep in mind that a correct component will be worth much more than that. what are they asking for it?
Another sourse of info is at the local bookstore "Hemmings motor news" a monthly mag with a zillion ads from all over.

90% of corvettes have low milage, especially the old ones or else they get restored. what town are you in?

Answer 6

You need to get in touch with the folks at Barret Jackson auto auction. They are the authorities on this matter. Classic cars are funny. 2 seemingly identical cars selling one behind the other, but one or two important details setting them apart, one goes for $50k, the other goes for $500k.

Answer 7

About $50,000. The usual rule is $1,000 per mile for classic cars in mint condition.

Answer 8

The guy who said 50k is nuts The 73 is not rare they are a dime a dozen. go get a Dallas news paper you`ll see lots of them. this is why our economy sucks every one thinks their stuff is worth more than it is. you`d be lucky to get 15 grand ror it.

I can give you an idea if you give me the owner's phone number. Just kidding.
