Thanks fellas!.

Is the invoice Baldwin generated...please pass the glasses?.

And on the engine, by chance is there any additional markings on the pad area or anything stamped at the bellhousing meeting surface...worth asking?https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif.

i will get steve to put window sticker and better motor pics up.

I would not bother going through an auction house to sell this car. I think you would be giving up way too much in fees. Most of the big muscle car players frequent this site or have friends who do. (others agree??)

I think an Ebay auction would be the way to go. Make sure you have high quality / high resolution picutres of the car and ALL documentation. Do a detailed description. Make sure the description is not one gigantic paragraph with bullet points for the highlights. (You would be surprised how many people just have one huge unreadable paragraph!!)

Did you contact Kevin Suydam? He might be a buyer or just a fantastic source of information about the car and its value.

If you do an Ebay ad place a post in the For Sale section of this forum. Make sure you list a price in the forum. it can be a high price but the rules say you need to have a price.

Your other idea would be to put the car together and then sell it. The car seems like it is in very good shape and would not need too much work to have her up and running. Just an idea.....

I love the paint and think this is an amazing car!!!!

Above sounds like great advice!.

The get it back and running idea especially so!.

Also the more documents the better so it may be worth considering dropping the tank for the build sheet too?.
I don't know if you can peek past these Enots flip-caps like the factory fillers...they do undo and necks are threaded so it may be possible to first see the sheet from above?.

And again considering the whole situation, Joel may help w/ docs or memories of this specific car especially if he spoke w/ your brother...sure worth asking at least?.

Again best to you and your family Dale...nice to see everyone here help in any way they can!.

You have a lawyer that does auto repair? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

In response to the authenticity of this car i can verify that it is indeed a real Baldwin motion corvette and unfortunatley it will soon have a new owner. I can also tell you that HP2 is a sraight shooter and everything he is telling you guys is for real. I know this because i have been a good friend of the family for many years and worked with the deceased owner on researching this car. This car is probably one of the most documented low mileage BM vettes that exists including the original bill of sale and build sheet. From the research we have done we believe it is the same car used in the BM advertisements and possibly the only 71 built. I have many pictures of this car that i will try and post in the near future.

I beleive the last BM Phase III GT built was the Daytona Yellow car Joel owned and restored in 1993. Although that car had the 69 style gills it had the 71 grill. It was also said to be the last car built and had to be built 2 times as a fire burned down the first finished car. The article can be found in VETTE magazine in 1992, maybe June. It was also plastered over every car magazine in 1993 when the resto was finished
