I meant to say that 80lb oil pressure gauges have been found in documented original 1966 L-36 corvettes. Not that there are only 66 of them produced. The(production totals) of 60lb vs 80lb gauge is obviously unknown.

From photos alone, the position of the hood support on the pass side is the most telling feature that this was originally a SB car.

When GTO Don's green Corvette was sold on Ebay on September 10, 2014 it went for $44,950. It was at Rick Downey Chevrolet and I spoke with the salesman (owner), Larry.

I don't know what you paid for it, but that was the market then and apparently now.

Dandy Don </div></div>What makes you the authority on what it was worth then and now???? I don't know why your even bringing it up when I clearly have it on eBay for sale now? Maybe your just trying to ruin my auction? For your information which is none of your business anyway the car was bought off ebay by Mecum and they took it to the muscle car nationals and that's where I bought it from for considerably more. Did I make a mistake? Maybe but that's my business. I guess we'll find out out soon what the market value is being you consider yourself and eBay an authority. Thanks for such an informative post Dandy Don.

----D Don,,,The car is worth more than $44,950 plain and simple. It was a deal at that price. That's why Mecum bought it. Markets change, sometimes vastly. The car is worth more no matter how it started out life......Bill S

I remember when I had my custom paint 68 chevelle for sale on here an it fell on deaf ears then after I sold it on eBay I still get calls from people wanting to buy it and where did it go? Where were they when I was selling it? It will be the same with this car. I'll probably be sorry after its gone like I still am over the chevelle. I'm just to fickle and like to change the faces. This is the reason alot of people are private when selling their cars because of someone who's always in their business where they don't belong plain and simple.

Judging by the county code on the plates... Looks to be from Carson City originally... I need to pay more attention..... That's only a couple of hours from here... BTW - I used to live up there...

GTO DON, I loved your Chevelle as well as this Vette (we must have similar tastes).

Best of luck with the sale, and if you don't get all the money for that Vette, people are dumb.

Car spent all its life in Carson city. I didn't know you could figure that from the tags.

Hey GTO Don; you're the one that was bitching in your original post that everyone was offering you $45K for the car and you wondered why? I simply answered you with what I knew about the car. It is worth whatever someone will pay for it. Mecum bought it and you bought it from them, so you obviously felt it was worth the price.
Personally, I like the car very much. I've owned many award winning Corvettes and got burned out on original matching number cars. I am looking for a flared C2 NOM coupe as we speak. That is why I inquired about the Green Car. I guess you'll find out soon enough if someone wants to pay your price. Don't ask questiomns in a post and then get pissed off when you get an answer you don't like.
