That Corvette is so special the owner's probably afraid to drive it in traffic. I had a chance to buy a used Vette in 1968. It was a '65 coupe. Dark green with a 396/425 4 speed. Used but in super condition for only $2500. I didn't have enough money so i purchased a 1966 GTO black, Hurst 4 speed. Was like new for $1685. Now that '65 Vette with highest factory 396 hp is big collector quality muscle.

26 years ago, When I bought my 91' ZR-1, from Corvette Mike in L.A. this car was for sale in his showroom. The asking price? $500K. 26 years = 3 Million increased value. You could polish it, and maintain it, and pay stiff insurance bills the whole time. But you couldn't really drive it. You are it's "custodian", and custodians don't get paid too well. My 91'- ZR-1 purchase price then = $35K. Twenty Six years, and 70K miles later, it's worth maybe $20K, a $15K loss. But I've driven it all over America, I've seen the speedo top 175 mph.,. I've drag raced it, showed it, polished it, and ran it HARD. Owning the fastest, factory stock, GM car of the Twentieth Century is still fun. But what would you pay to get in the Time Machine and have this L88 for one summer night in 1967 = PRICELESS.

Even the series 2 Holden it has the same unleaded 91 as standard fuel ? The AFM VE Holden had E85 fuel comparability, but yet the new VF Holden has the AFM fuel management of DOD lifters, yet you cant use E85 fuel in them ?

Barrett-Jackson specialize in American collectible cars. They do occasionally sell European or Japanese collectible vehicles. Gooding & Co. sell more foreign vehicles.

That's what buffed lacquer looks like, it's the smoothest paint used on cars so it's also the glossiest. The problem is it's very brittle and oxidizes quickly. In all likelihood that is just red paint with no clear at all.

lacquer is dated - much better materials now - plus you cannot buy lacquer in Cali.

I have an old crusty ‘72 C10 with a 454 - 550 HP and in a quarter mile drag race this vette would maybe just barely outrun. Not worth the extra $3,490,000 for just a slightly better performance, considering that’s the big deal about the L88.... and I am not afraid to drive my truck anywhere daily!
