Vehicle Description
1975 Chevrolet Corvette
The 3rd generation of Corvette was produced by Chevrolet from 1968
to 1982. As with their typical pattern with previous generations,
Chevrolet changed up the look of the C3 significantly from previous
years. Initially a lot of the mechanical and chassis components
carried over but the body and interior design were completely new.
It would eventually go on to set sales records in the late 70's and
also introduced the "Stingray" name as now a single word versus 2.
Not only does it bare that name but the stingray stylings were
clearly apparent with its pointed nose and broad front end. These
were the ultimate sports car and this 1975 is really something
special. When talking about these old classics the word
"documented" comes up often in regards to numbers, originality,
etc. Well this car shows 17,445 miles on the odometer and has a
title from the previous owner showing 15,676 "actual" miles as of
April 2018. We will leave you to judge whether that is enough
documentation to verify its low mileage but also consider the
condition because that speaks for itself. The car is painted in a
very nice Medium Metallic Tan which really looks nice. It really
suits the bodylines very well and has been redone in the past.
Unfortunately, due to circumstances out of our control, the car now
has an area of stained paint on the hood as a result of oil
dripping during transport. Pictures are available on request
because it is quite honestly very difficult to see in certain
lighting. All of the original exterior accents are in great
condition including things like the chin spoiler which, among other
things, help to back up that low original mileage. The car rides on
a set of its original wheels with center caps and Cooper Cobra
Radial G/T tires. It is pictured with missing center caps on one
side but those will be installed in new condition prior to
purchase.
Powering the car is a great running 350 ci V8 that roars to life
with 1 turn of the key. It is the numbers matching original motor
and has been fitted with a few upgrades including a Edelbrock
Performer intake, Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor, and new
distributor. In addition to being a numbers match the car, it was
ordered with power steering, power disc brakes, and air
conditioning all of which are working properly. It really is a
smooth running car that is a joy to drive.
The interior is another place to point at when considering the low
mileage. The Tan upholstery throughout is in excellent condition.
This includes the carpet, headliner, everything. All of the typical
spots you would expect wear show zero signs of it which is a
testament to how well it has been cared for. Between the original
bucket seats is the original console with power window switches,
the emergency brake handle and the console shifter. On the dash
everything is stock and in good condition. The steering wheel looks
good as well and sits on top of the tilt/telescoping column.
This car is an excellent driver and looks great while doing it.
Plus with those classic Corvette T-Tops you can cruise around as a
semi convertible when the weather allows. We don't suspect it will
be available for purchase for very long.
Make it yours for $19,500.00!
