Vehicle Description
We all want something special, so you might think that an
affordably-priced 1974 Chevrolet Corvette with the right features
like the original V8, shining paint, four-speed, and an A/C
interior is already a good buy. But what makes it a real standout
is that the Danbury Mint and the NCRS actually declared this one a
true collectable!
White is a timeless color that has an extra special meaning to
Corvette people - after all, every first-year one was finished in
white. But more than just history, this one has the added
desirability of a re-application of its factory-correct color that
happened in November 2018 - yes, it's that fresh! It's a
professional finish, and so the sunlight really highlights the
crisp lines of this C3. And this Stingray really needs to look its
best, because you're going to want to showcase it everywhere. Not
only was it judged a Top Flight car by NCRS in 2009, but this one
was chosen to represent Corvettes for the ages. This is the exact
car the Danbury Mint used for to represent their collector model.
It's such a cool story that an example of the model car and
documentation comes with the sale, too.
Averaging less than 1,100 miles annually means this car has led a
cherished life, and the interior is further proof. The leather
bucket seats look excellent. Not only does the saddle look great
against the white exterior, but it also coordinates nicely with the
door panels, carpeting, and center console to give you an overall
classic you'll love. Plus, it's loaded with the right
period-correct premium features, like the power windows, power
locks, AM/FM stereo, and wood-like paneling on the doors and center
console. More than just loaded, this is a true driver's machine
with a sports steering wheel, large speedo/tach directly in front,
full auxiliary readouts prominently in the middle, and a stick
shift that's calling out for your right hand. And because the
factory air conditioning is blowing nice and cold, you'll really
enjoy taking out the T-tops long into the summer season.
Under the hood is a terrific classic presentation. This one really
gets the details correct, right down to the rubber gasket on the
air topper that gives you a true cowl induction hood. Even the
decals appear original! So on a presentation like this, it's great
to have the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. Topped with a
four-barrel carburetor, this motor is known for good power and
monster torque. You get to control it all thanks to the four-speed
manual transmission. In fact, control is exactly what a C3 gives
you all-around. After all, with a fully independent suspension,
power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes, it's one of the of the
most capable classics you can get your hands on.
The sale not only comes with the NCRS certificate, but also a ton
more documentation befitting of a distinguished classic. This
includes the original warranty card, reproduction window sticker,
owner's manual, service manuals, build receipts, and maintenance
records. This is a very special car presented correctly. So when
something so distinct is also so obtainable, you know it won't stay
available for long. Call now!
