This 1971 Corvette LT1 is for sale in our Louisville showroom. 1971
was had the least amount of changes of any Corvette due to labor
disputes. The biggest change was motor output but really that was
just due to the way HP ratings were taken. This was also the lowest
production numbers making this chrome bumper Vette's highly
collectible today. The LT1 option was only given to 1949 cars that
year only adding to this cars rarity. The LT1 option boosted power
on the small block to an impressive 330 HP making these cars
lighter than a big block with the weight being proportioned a lot
better as well. This one owner 71 has lived a much pampered life
with only seeing action on the nicest of weekends. The original
paint is in great condition considering it is 45 years old. When
not seeing action it was stored safe and sound under its custom car
cover in the garage. The side pipes look great as they should since
they are just for show. The car has been meticulously maintained
with the owner taking great pride in this unique Vette. The
original paperwork has been kept well preserved in its original
brochure including the original owner's manual. The 4 speed
transmission feels great with the shifts being nice and crisp with
the clutch having plenty of life lift. The wheel bearings have just
recently been serviced ensuring smooth rolling when cruising down
the road. A full set of calipers as well as brake lines were

of a sudden. With all vacuum operated options in fine working order
