Vette(s): Purchased a 1986 Convert August 2013, Bright Red color with a black top, it'd already received a Tremec 5 speed upgrade along with a disc upgrade prior to purchase.

It's worth what 1) someone is willing to offer and 2) what the seller is willing to accept.

Remember, even though it's low mileage, there's a good chance many seals and things like tires have deteriorated just due to age.  I suspect there will be alot of startup maintenance on ithis one.  Additionally, in some states you have to buy all 'missed' plates and pay a fine/fee to do that too so it can add up to a large amount of $$.  Figure it will take tires, seals in the engine, tranny and differential for a start.  Could also include things like relays and wiring too.

Unless you're a collector (which it doesn't sound like you are), an exceptional 86 probably would go for over $10K, but even that's relative.

I would have to see pics and docs to make a good evaluation.
 
$10 to 15k using your words as facts.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Good Luck

Using your description of the car: It puts the value using Hagerty's price guide tool at around $15k.to 18K,  for a number one car.
