Vehicle Description
This 1970 Chevrolet Corvette convertible strikes a nice balance of
vintage and upgrades. For example, you get the numbers-matching V8
and four-speed, but they have been rebuilt for added performance.
So dig into the rest of the details of this triple-black classic
made to be enjoyed.
This Corvette has been with the same owner for nearly 15 years, and
in that time there were nice investments to make a distinctive
ride. After all, Corvette people know there was no black paint
offered in 1970, but these Stingrays just look so good in a
midnight appearance. So not only was this upgraded later in life,
but there was a fresh clearcoat application about 7 years ago. So
it has a nice gloss that loves to highlight all the well-creased
curves of this C3 Corvette. Contrasting the color but matching the
radiant look is all the brightwork, including the sharply pointed
front bumper, two-piece rear bumper, rocker trim, and optional
luggage rack. And for added distinction, there was also an upgrade
to 17-inch polished Foose wheels.
Beneath the black folding roof is a full black interior that
completes the ultra-desirable triple-black package (exterior, roof,
and interior.) Newer carpeting, a clean dash, and comfortable
bucket seats shows this has been given the right care and
investments. The whole car is built around the driver. The
three-spoke sports steering wheel on the tilt/telescope column to
give you a good view of the large speedo and tach. The center stack
is dominated by auxiliary readouts (including a working clock,) and
below that is an AM/FM/cassette stereo for upgraded driving music.
And you just know that bright shifter is calling out for your right
hand.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching V8, and it has the kind of
fresh look that tells you there have been plenty of investment
here. It was rebuilt about 9 years and 10k miles ago. It's now a
355 cubic-inch unit with a Holley 700 double-pumper four-barrel
carburetor, Summit aluminum intake, HEI ignition, and Hedman long
tube headers. It's a strong-running motor that makes a terrific
sound out of the Flowmaster dual exhaust. And you're in full
control thanks to the numbers-matching Muncie M20 four-speed manual
transmission. It was rebuilt around the same time as the motor and
now includes a Zoom clutch. Even the undercarriage photos show a
clean presentation of a restored vehicle that has been treated with
care. But more than just look nice, a classic Corvette is great for
driving. That's why you have power steering, four-wheel disc
brakes, and modern performance tires afforded by the wheel
upgrade.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, build receipts,
and restoration photos. The factory never gave you a triple-black
1970 Stingray, but this one delivers what you want and does it with
quality. Call today!!!
