Vehicle Description
This 1973 Chevrolet Corvette was given a rotisserie restoration
later in life. The result is a car that has sharp looks and some
terrific upgrades (including a five-speed and A/C interior.) So dig
into the details on a classic sports car that was made for
enjoyment.
The factory correct silver paint on this Stingray has a nice gloss.
It's the result of a full restoration about a decade ago, and when
you pay for quality, it lasts. Good color is what you want on a
'73, because it's a distinctive year. The chrome front bumper was
replaced by form-fitting color-matched unit that integrated into
the rest of the body almost seamlessly. This gave a whole new
dimension to the car as the shaper front end seemed to be the right
fit with C3's well-creased silhouette. What also makes the '73
unique is that it's the only year with the new front, but still
retains the chrome in the rear. This distinct piece, and all the
other brightwork (including the luggage rack, rockers, and window
trim,) looks like it received the right attention during the
restoration, too.
The red interior was another of this car's upgrades, and it really
adds a vibrant distinction. But more than just great colors, the
budget was spent here to make sure this is a terrific cruiser. For
example, the radio has been upgraded to a modern digital tuner that
has a nice retro-style to fit with the rest of the classic
interior. And the air conditioning is blowing cold with modern
R134a, so you can enjoy this one with the T-tops out even in the
summertime. Plus, you get the grippy three-spoke steering wheel on
a tilt column, large speedo and tach directly in front of you, and
the auxiliary gauge package is at eye-level.
Under the hood is the 350 cubic-inch V8 engine. It inhales deeply
with a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with sweet sound out
of the dual exhaust. While we love a good small block, what really
makes this one especially appealing is that they upgraded the
transmission to a five-speed manual. That means more gears than
even the factory gave you to allow for better control. Power
steering, four-wheel power disc brakes, and the fully-independent
sports suspension all come together to deliver a classic car that
loves your favorite road as much as you do.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, restoration
photos, and extras like a car cover and T-top bags. This is the
nicely restored and upgraded Corvette offered for an obtainable
price. So you know you need to act fast to get your hands on it.
