That appears to be the same car that was owned by a friend of mine (cjbrown here). Years ago, he brought it on the Coastal Cruise M.B.E.G. 2nd Annual "SoCal Coastal Cruise" Saturday August 21st 2010 (post #32). He drove it very little, and eventually sold it. I assume he sold it to the person that just sold it on BAT.

Post Bring A Trailer

Lots and lots of low mileage old man Corvettes now on BAT, a sad thing, they sat on them for decades instead of driving and enjoying them .

China Blue is a very desirable color, and 80k makes it even more desirable. Seeing how much these cars are going for, I'd say 15K+ if you listed it on BAT.

I've always found the wilder the color, the better.
