Welcome to THE VETTE NET, the oldest online Corvette business, a
place where enthusiasts come to meet when selling their prized
cars, a place where we connect them with the best match and arrange
a smooth and mutually profitable transaction. Our company is also a
proud Lifetime Business Member of the National Corvette Museum.Back
in 1973, due to intense pressure from insurance companies and the
infamous fuel shortage, Chevrolet started to implement some drastic
changes when it came to appearance and performance. First of all,
it seemed that it was very expensive to replace a damaged Chrome
bumper, so the first step was to replace the coveted front bumper
with a "plastic" or polyurethane cover. This created a unique look
for this model year with only one Chrome bumper on the rear.
Performance also suffered since engines had to comply with more
stringent emissions.Nevertheless, the 1973 models have a particular
spot in the Corvette lineup and are now being sought after as as
the next best thing after the "Bumper Cars" of 1968-1972...Our
offer today is a very fine example of this vintage in excellent
condition and very original with only 73K documented miles. To
start with, it comes with the standard L48 350 engine
conservatively rated at 190 HP. It is original and has the proper
matching numbers (VIN and CLA suffix on the engine pad) as seen in
the pictures. It is equipped with Power Steering, Power Brakes and
Air Conditioning which blows cold air. Vacuum system was refreshed
and is working perfect. Check out the virgin engine compartment
even with the original air intake rubber boot! Engine is mated with
the automatic transmission which shifts smoothly as it should.
Undercarriage is very clean with no signs of rust or abuse and the
rubber parts appear to be in good condition. Exhaust is original
and only newer mufflers are present. Note the very nice condition
of the spare tire carrier with the factory lock and key mechanism.
It also hasnew brakes, calipers, brake lines, new master cylinder,
etc. Nice tires, Rally wheels with correct, if not original, Chrome
"beauty rings and dog dish centercaps".Interior is very nice and
features original carpet, door panels, dash, console with the
addition of correct looking cloth seat covers with suede inserts,
good looking, but not a factory options. Instruments and gauges are
functional and there are no cracks or signs of excessive wear. The
whole appearance is consistent with the fact that the car was well
taken care of and with the low miles shown by the odometer (73K).
All lights work.Paint on the car is the correct Mille Miglia Red
and it appears that a newer paintjob was applied sometime 5-10
years ago. Needless to say, it is still in excellent condition with
no scratches, cracks, fading ect. Chrome is also excellent as seen
in the pics. Car runs and drives excellent.Here is your chance to
own a rare piece of Corvette history, the last of the "Bumper cars"
even though it was only in the back. With its condition,
provenance, uniqueness, we appreciate that this car has a great
appreciation potential.Located in FLORIDA, we can assist with
