Too bad its not an LT-1.
He thinks a base 71 convertible is that powerful?

I didnt notice the price until after I posted. Much too high now that Ive seen it. Granted, its for a good cause, but people should still have some common sense. Wheres that thread again? 
If it had an LT-1 in it, it might be worth paying for. Although I cant tell, I think the 2 big round knobs in the dash might mean its air conditioned, which might make it worth something.

Who the heck is Matthew McConaughey?
Doesn't look like anyone special to me.

Actor / Model
He may not be special to you, but hesw got more money than most of us will ever see. Seems like a good guy.. Giving his 71' Vette up for auction is a pretty nice gesture.. |

I agree; Also, that's probably why it's going as high as it is.
When they auctioned of the last production Enzo, it went for double it's worth.
Regarding McConaughey...my girlfriend said that's the only guy she'd leave me for...Well, him and Ami James  .

Says that the motor and tranny has been "tricked out" by a race team before he bought it.

This car auction reminds me of the Jon Voight's LeBaron episode of Seinfeld.
