Help on selling Corvette

(1/9) > >>

scootersnowra:
Hello all, sorry to be a pain, I know little about cars, especially Corvettes. Anyhow my father in-law due to poor health wants us to help him downsize/declutter his shed (he doesn't have much choice in this matter). Sitting in the corner is a White Corvette that needs to go (he shouldn't even be allowed to drive a normal car). All I know about the car at this stage  (need to sneak back for another look) is that it is a White 1986 Daytona corvette convertible (right hand drive). My question is, what else do I need to find out about this car to be able to sell it and what is a rough price guide? The car gets a quick sprint around the streets every few months so I know it goes well.
Thank you for reading this and any help will be very appreciated.
Simon

Asking prices for C4s vary greatly. Take a look on carsales.com.au for an idea of what people in Oz are asking at the moment for C4s generally and how they are describing them. (Use advanced search to filter the range of years).

Being an 86, it's now almost in the zone where anyone can import one from the states and register it LHD, so there are a few early C4 vettes being imported at the moment.  Some people like LHD as it's the way the car was made, but many like RHD too as it makes it easier to drive.

The big thing will be the quality of the RHD conversion.  Was the steering box and brake master moved to the right hand side, or are there bars and chains under the dash connecting the right hand side pedals and steering wheel to the left hand side brakes and steering box?

If you put a price on it and it gone the next day, your were to low
If you stile have it in three years,  your to high

C4 have the wides range of asking prices at the moment

Never could find it on carsales for that year, did find out some more information, was very painful to get out of the father inlaw, (dementia and he is so annoying), done 24,000 genuine miles, was imported as a right hand drive and he  doesn't believe there is chains/bars linking under the dash. I was wrong, it has Indianapolis badges not Daytona.
