The C4 Corvette is about the only Corvette that you can get for Camaro prices these days— even the 19-horsepower '79s are worth good money now. Still, it's pretty rare that I find a C4 at a cheap self-service wrecking yard; most of the examples I run across are melty-fiberglass burn victims, and the remainder have been picked clean. Here's one of the latter type, discovered a few months back in Northern California.
Corvettes are much like Porsche 911s in the willingness-beyond-all-reason of their owners to spend money, and so those who run Corvette or Porsche shops stock up on parts whenever possible. That means that a Corvette must be rough indeed to make it past the auction process and into the hands of a junkyard's buyer.
Look, it still has part of the driver's seat!
I predict that the taillight lenses and rear glass didn't stick around long after I shot these photographs.
