2nd toy

The Monte is completely stock, 350, 145 hp, (wow), 350 turbo auto,
Only mod is that I drilled some holes into the top of the air cleaner so she get some air. Increased mileage by 2 mph by doing that. Other than that, completely stock.

2nd toy is a 2000 C5 Vette, again stock. 345hp 350. 51,000 miles, only bought it a year ago; "post" mid-life crisis!!!
thanks for looking

Pricing advice

I am considering selling my 74 original MC. I am the original owner and have loved this car. Times are a changing and I might sell. Can anyone point me to a site that can give me an honest estimate of what I should ask for my 74. Please see my profile to see the car. user, rmsglass
Thanks

GOOD question. Depends on what you are looking for, but IMHO, ebay is a great place to do business. I bought my Intimidator SS on there. I'd go high on the price, and make it a buy it for this price now sale. Another could be autotrader.com. That used to be big. cars.com is bigger now. Keep an eye on ebay on the completed auctions to see what cars are going for. BTW, I have a car going up for sale soon, an '07 Solstice GXP. We're going to put it on ebay, and other Solstice forums. And that's another place to put it, if you're eligible, is all the Monte and Chevy forums. Most forums have a time limit and #of post made before you are eligible to post in the classifieds, but exceptions CAN be made.
