Vehicle Description
This 1973 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible has its numbers-matching
V8 and a great driver-ready attitude. It makes for a well-priced
drop-top icon that's ready for your personal touch.
This has the right look for a grand touring Corvette. The clean
white top, rear luggage rack, and distinctive style with the debut
of the color-matched front end. It's a car you'll want to drive,
and so the paint currently reflects that. So you have a Corvette in
an iconic and factory-correct Mille Miglia Red that has a nice
gloss in the sunshine. But it also has the overall kind of
appearance that won't make you worry about pebbles in the road or
rain on your way home. That's a good driver's classic, and the
value price should leave room in your budget if you're looking to
get closer to perfection. But the full appeal here is the look of a
classic Stingray in an exclusive year where it was the only time to
get the color-matched front bumper and the chrome rear - often
considered the purest of the C3 design.
We also like this car because it has a dual personality. The white
roof has a pleasant and premium feeling, but the black interior
sets a more aggressive tone. The interior has been changed over
from the factory red, and so that means newer fundamentals,
including the very well-done bucket seat covers. It reminds you
this is a driver's convertible. So do features like the three-spoke
sports steering wheel, tilt column, and auxiliary readouts at eye
level. There's potential for added desirable details, like
restoring the factory air conditioning. And this is just waiting
for you to install the modern radio of your choice. But from day
one, you'll love the tune of the V8 and the feeling of wind in your
hair.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic inch V8 with a
four-barrel carb on top. It's a strong runner and even has an HEI
distributor, so that's part of the core feeling of a driver's
Corvette. The TH400 three-speed automatic shifts smoothly and
confidently. Plus, power steering, four-wheel power disc brakes,
and fully independent sports suspension make it easy to enjoy this
Corvette to the fullest.
This is a driver-ready Stingray that's fun today and lets you
personalize it to your tastes down the road. That makes for an
interesting and affordable icon. Call today!!!
