A well-optioned Convertible Corvette that will make Summertime 10X
as enjoyable! 1975 was the very last time Chevrolet said Corvette
would produce a convertible. Only one displacement choice was
offered being the 350 CID, ZQ3 with 165 hp or L82 with 205 hp and
this one being the latter with a fresh and reactive feel. Both
engines had the same255 lb-ft. The 3 speed Turbo-Hydromatic
transmission shifts the way it should. The introduction of
mandatory catalytic converters and speed regulators became the
standard in 1975. Even with the dismal horsepower rating the
Corvette department at GM really achieved the unthinkable with 0-60
still being had at a very healthy run in the high 7.0 seconds.
Styling was never at risk and this Dark Red Metallic proves just
that. Its glistening long sexy curves, low stance and meaty
245/60/15 tires not just hugging the road but appearing to be part
of it has all the confidence and appeal that comes with the
Stingray. Only 53,142 original miles on this numbers matching well
cared for beauty, with a restored interior and new white
convertible manual top that goes up and down correctly. Style
additions for this year changed the nose to a one piece front. All
in all at a time when the car industry was being told what to do
Corvette was Car and Driver Magazine's choice for "Best all around
car". Chevrolet pulled it off in 1975 with a superb road car,
stunning styling and enjoyable spirited driving. Yours to be had in
this 1975 Corvette even if you just want to show or make it your
back road cruiser, but don't let me tell you what to do. To view
