Vehicle Description
1970 Chevrolet Corvette
Why This Car Is Special
The 1970 Chevrolet Corvette's had relatively low production because
of a labor dispute that started in May of 1969. This dispute caused
the 1969 production run to be stretched 4 months and the 1970 run
to be cut short.
When most enthusiasts think about buying a Corvettes, they would
like to find rare ones. Well, the 1970 Chevrolet Corvette we have
here at Skyway Classics is one is very rare not only because of the
low number built, but because it is a factory ordered #984 Daytona
Yellow Corvette with a rare #422 green interior, and one of only
6648 Corvette convertibles built in 1970!
Mechanical
Under the hood is a fresh GM ZZ4 350 cubic inch Crate Engine that
pumps out over 355 horsepower with its Edelbrock 300 CFN
performance carb, aluminum performance intake, factory correct
chrome open-element air cleaner, Hedman Super Comp tubular headers
flowing back to the GM N-11 Off Road Exhaust, M20GM Wide Ratio
4-speed transmission, and putting all that power to the ground via
a 3.70:1 Pose rear end.
It also has power steering, chrome ignition shielding, fully
independent suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes, and idles
with a growl but from outside the car there's still that monster
rumble to let any and all know this is a modified engine.
Interior
Inside there is that great interior featuring the green twin C3
bucket with bolstering, matching door panels, center console and
dash, factory Corvette sports steering wheel, the large speedo and
tach, and you have a full array of auxiliary readouts just to the
side.
This Corvette is comfortable too and has the AM/FM radio, tinted
glass, alarm system, as well as the convertible top so you can
enjoy the drop top experience.
Exterior
The bold Daytona Yellow color is a great color to have on a
Stingray and it was a rare color offered for only a couple of
years. It looks super flowing over the L88 hood with its offsetting
ZL1 Corvette stripes, brightly highlighting the crisp lines of the
shark-like nose, rounded fenders, and integrated rear spoiler.
Our '70 has nicely chromed intricate chrome bumpers, bright rocker
panels, and iconic Rally wheels with chrome trim rings and center
caps running 235/70/15 Raised White Letter BF Goodrich Radial TA
performance tires.
