I'll be able to sell it. DMV told me to sign the titles with "my name", "as surviving spouse", and give the buyer the supporting documentation, which I have all ready. I sold the camaro that way, and it worked out fine. The new owner has to get their insurance, then get their plates, then...

Thank you for those suggestions about car shows and Corvette clubs. I e-mailed all the Corvette clubs a few months ago. I got calls on it, but I couldn't answer all the "detailed" questions...then they all told me the price was too high. I contacted Corvette Mike last week; he referred me to...

I would have considered keeping the cars for the 12 and 10 year-old boys (also had an 1985 Camaro Iroc-z); however, when my husband went into the ER (on Mother's Day last year), we had no health or life insurance. With him in the hospital, there was also no income. My neighbor started a...

Red70Vette, Thanks for your suggestion; I did just that. I took out "original engine", and replaced it with, "As far as I know,....." Also, you live in Cortlandt Manor? I live in Dutchess County, about 1/2 hour north from you. You might actually know my husband. His family is originally...

I relisted the ad in CraigsList, with all the numbers I/you all found, at $11,500.00. At the very least, I learned about something I never in a million years thought I would! My late husband would be amazed, and he would have loved to "chat" with you all too. I'll let you all know how it...

Thank you for your help. I checked out the Nada Guides last year when my husband first passed away. I first listed the vette at $19,500.00,...nothing. With a bad economy and rising gas prices, I waited until this spring, then relisted at $15,000.00. People told me I'm NUTS...but part of it...

The three digit code reads "K22". The codes underneath the word Chevrolet read, from left to right: "TRIM 722 .....10L PAINT". I can safely edit the ad to read, "1979 Corvette, original engine, interior, paint, and trim." I think I should put all these numbers in the ad too, so people can...

The other stamped number on the engine reads: V 0611 ZAH, just as you said.

I tried to look for the VIN again...my 10-year old son saw me, and pointed out the engine, so here's what I have: the VIN is 1Z8789S440806. The stamp on the engine reads: 193440806. So the sequence number matches, but not the first three...does this make a huge difference? There was another...

Than why is there an L82 ornament on the hood, and what is the car actually worth? I'm asking $11,500.00, thinking it's an L82. I guess I'm kinda screwed, huh? I tried to run a CarFax Report, but they only have reports for cars 1981 to present.

Here are pictures of the engine...I don't know if these help any. I'm also somewhat confused about the VIN. I "decoded" it on a couple of websites last night, and the fifth digit is the engine, which on this VIN, is the number 8..according to the websites I found, the engine should be L48...

For starters, I don't have any documentation on it. Someone gave it to my husband in August 2005 in exchange for a side job he did for them. My husband passed away last June 2007. I have searched this house high and low (even the nooks and crannies where he thought I'd never look!), and can't...

Hello, I need help... I am trying to sell a 1979 Corvette L82, 41,440 miles on it. I am asking $11,500.00. People are asking me if the numbers match, I don't know what this means, or how to check. I truly need to sell this car THIS MONTH. Can anyone out there help me, so I don't sound stupid...
