For Sale: 1993 Chevrolet Corvette in Ft Worth, Texas

Wearing a very distinctive and rarely seen color draped over its exterior, this 1993 Chevrolet Corvette 40th Anniversary convertible is an ultra-sharp representative of Chevy's American sports car in special edition, fourth generation form. Hard as it may be to believe, this car has only logged a scant 20,000 miles over the years, but a closer inspection of its unusually fresh appearance will remedy any skepticism you might have about that figure. Running as good as it looks, it will arrive in its next owner's garage with a reproduction build sheet on board to document the array of top tier components it received before leaving the assembly line.

Because of the model's unflagging popularity, it's not all that uncommon to see Corvettes from this era on the road from time to time, but rarely are they dressed like this one. Its Ruby Red Metallic paint is an eye-catching shade of burgundy and, along with a pair of commemorative emblems that grace the car's front fenders, comes via the car's special edition, 40th Anniversary status. As a member of the model's fourth generation, it has a sleeker appearance than its predecessors and its exterior is constructed of much more durable components. You'd probably picture yourself driving an open-air beauty like this with just the blue sky above you, but should those skies ever darken, the accompanying maroon cloth convertible top is also in great shape and locks into position nicely.

Climb inside, and you'll find a matching maroon interior whose stock condition is on a par with what's on display outside the doors. Glance around the cockpit and you'll see no issues to be concerned about - there are no cracks on the dash cap, the door panels show no discoloration and are still properly aligned and there's surprisingly little wear on the bolsters of the leather bucket seats. Even the carpeting below still has its original deep coloring. The air conditioning system blows strong and cold and is up to the challenge of keeping you comfortable on warmer days. Convenience features include cruise control, as well as power windows, door locks and mirrors.

You'll be impressed at just how smoothly the hood raises and lowers - its shocks still work as well as they did when this car was new. Everything below remains in very clean stock configuration, with a fuel-injected 5.7-liter LT1 V8 at the center of the compartment that's surrounded by fresh hoses and properly routed wiring. With so few miles under its belt, the engine is only a little way past the break in stage and it fires right up on cue as it pairs with a 4-speed automatic transmission that provides slip-free shifts. Ever since the first 'Vette rolled off the line some 70 years ago, Chevy has equipped the model with nimble handling and this '93 is certainly no exception - it features independent suspension at both ends which, paired with its low center of gravity, make it an excellent corner carver. When it comes time to bring it to a stop, 4-wheel anti-lock power disc brakes with aluminum calipers get the job done in a hurry. This great looking Chevy rolls on a set of very clean 17" stock wheels that are wrapped with Firestone Firehawk tires with plenty of tread left.

With its unusually clean condition pairing with special edition collectability, this 1993 Chevrolet Corvette 40th Anniversary convertible would be a great addition to any enthusiast's garage. Call today!
