C2: 67 Pliacell shock absorbers

[David L.]

Can anyone direct me to a good venue to sell a set of original 67 shocks? I have a set of 4 non-F41's. Part numbers are front 3186906 dated 1767, and rear 3186907 dated 4667. Original and never painted or damaged.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Why not a free ad in The Driveline?

Agree with Stephen that eBay is overwhelmingly the best venue to sell rare, original parts.
Be advised however, the vintage Corvette parts market is significantly down, other than extremely rare parts. In my opinion, original '67 shocks in presentable condition are rare, but I would predict that the price is still significantly down. In times past, during the midyear, bigblock crazy days of 2005/06 (right after those Barrett-Jackson, Mecum, and other records sales were set, I have personally seen a set of four, original, usable shocks bring up to $4K, with an average of $3K or so. I'm not saying they are worth that,......only saying I've seen it in that short window of prices thru the roof, and common sense was thrown out the window.
I own a set of four originals myself.
I spent all last weekend at the Leake Collector Car Auction. My best advice after watching hundreds of auction results last weekend, is,....if you could wait to sell a car or rare parts until after this economic crisis rights itself, then wait.
Here's a pic of one of my shocks. Original paint/stickers, and close to your dates. You can even see a slight remnant residue from the black-out process on these.
Good luck, Rdige.

Ridge, wow........$4K for a set of shocks? That's nuts.

Question about your shocks though. I just painted my AC Delco replacements that are going on the car. I see you have in the picture a nice shot of the PLACEMENT of the two letter sticker for the rear shocks. Can you post a picture of the placement of the two letter stickers for the fronts too? I need to put mine on soon.
