There is something special about a C3 Corvette. Its long,
undulating hood, unmistakable Coke-bottle shape, and short,
windswept rear set it apart from not only every other Corvette
generation but every other car ever made. This particular 1973
Chevrolet Corvette comes to us with a mere 76,671 actual miles on
its odometer. Fully repainted in its original Blue Green Metallic,
a color only offered in 1971 and 1973, this numbers-matching car is
a prime example of what makes this generation of Corvette an object
of desire for so many enthusiasts around the world.
Pop off those nifty T-tops, and inside we find a correct Dark
Saddle vinyl interior. Two big gauges sit front and center of the
driver, just beyond a power-assisted three-spoke steering wheel
with a 7,000-rpm tach on the right and a 160-mph speedometer on the
left. A five-pod gauge cluster sits atop the center stack, while an
AM/FM stereo handles the soundtrack. Though its compressor will
need servicing, this Corvette comes from the factory with air
conditioning as an option on its dial-based HVAC setup.
Underneath its signature front-hinged hood, we find a
numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch L48 V-8 engine. Topped with a
single four-barrel carburetor, this post-emissions small block made
an advertised 190 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque when it
rolled off the assembly line. Power is routed through a TH400
three-speed automatic transmission before heading out to
fifteen-inch Rallye wheels shod in 225/70R-15 BFGoodrich tires.
