Vehicle Description
Beautiful and completely numbers matching 1973 Corvette Stingray
Coupe in fantastic condition with the high performance L82 engine
and only 73,095 original miles. This Corvette looks great, runs
well, and is an excellent driver. It is finished the beautiful and
highly desirable color combination of Blue-Green (945) over Medium
Saddle (415). This is the correct and original color scheme as
verified by the codes on the trim tag, which is pictured in this
ad. I have personally driven this car about 50 miles. During that
time that car was completely reliable, has no issues, and was a
true pleasure to drive. Besides the correct paint and trim codes,
this Corvette is 'Numbers Matching' meaning the engine and
transmission in the car are the correct and original units that
were installed in the car new at the factory in 1973. The last six
digits of the VIN, 414336, are stamped on the engine pad, which is
pictured in this ad, and the engine is original to the car. The
transmission is also original with the last six digits of the VIN
stamped on the main case and pictured. This car is verified as an
original L82 in a number of ways. First, on the engine pad is
stamped "CLD." This suffix code denotes an L82 with an automatic
transmission. The car is also confirmed as an original and
authentic L82 by the fifth digit of the VIN. Only the L82 Corvettes
with have a "T" in this spot like this car does, a base motor L48
car will always have an "J" in the fifth digit of the VIN for 1973.
We have this car priced to sell and are offering an excellent
opportunity to own a very desirable Corvette Stingray at an
unbeatable value. The high performance models like this L82 draw a
great premium over the standard Corvettes. One could easily buy
this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price in years
to come as the market on early C3 Corvettes is very hot right now
and on the rise, this is especially true for the 1973 model year as
it was a one year only body style.
