1970 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe
HAS TITLE
For auction, a 1970 Chevrolet Corvette with a title verified 90,360 actual miles. This car retains its numbers matching drivetrain including the 350hp 350ci V8 and Muncie M21.
Exterior
This shark with its chromed bumpers and lower chromed egg crate grille is in the sweet spot of the C3 years. Just prior to the performance killing EPA emissions add ons, and still enjoying chrome, the remainder of the body in fiberglass is a two stage coverage of Marlboro Maroon Metallic. Silver edge trim on the side gills accentuates the vents and the coveted scripted "Stingray" is above each. The side mirrors, window trim, and the bumpers front and rear are in very good condition and the side pipe heat shields are in fantastic shape. Meanwhile, body colored T-tops split the roof and look great as 15-inch polished American Racing Torque Thrust wheels carry faux knock offs and 235/60R15 tires. In back, the epic quad tail light design lives on a vertical plane under the integrated rear spoiler. Imperfections include some chips and bubbling on an otherwise spectacular exterior.
Interior
A swing of the sculpted doors and we see Saddle styled door panels which present nicely and include a simulated wood insert and carpeted, wedge shaped kick panel. Inside are Saddle leather high back buckets, column stitched and nicely cushioned in good shape with some light wear on the driver's side. The dash, center console, steering wheel center and carpet continue the saddle brown theme while black covers the wheel rim and the faceplate of the center gauge cluster. On the center console, features are highlighted on the black plastic and the legendary chrome ball shifter with two sided lockout grips, rises like a flagpole topper. An AM/FM/Cassette radio is on the center stack and in lieu of a glove box, document/map pockets sit in front of the passenger. Plush tan carpet covers the foot wells and the rear cargo area and completes the features of this clean interior.
Drivetrain
And here it is in all its glory, the numbers matching 350ci V8 rated at 350 horsepower and fueled through a 4-barrel carburetor. It's mated to the numbers matching Muncie M21 4-speed manual transmission routing power to the rear axle where it finds 3.70 gears and Positraction. Power steering and power brakes are onboard and the bay presents cleanly.
Undercarriage
A smidge of surface rust and a minimal amount of oil are found on this clean underside. The dual exhaust splits left and right and exits as side pipes while power disc brakes occupy all four corners. Both ends of the suspension are independent with coil springs up front and a transverse leaf spring in back.
Drive-Ability
"Baby, you're much too fast, yes you are....". The 350 never left home in this vintage Vette and provides plenty of power with great acceleration, very good handling and straight bias free braking. The wide and low stance of the car...with legs stretched out in front you...is reminiscent of a race car and the well bolstered seats add to the illusion that you are a world champion in training. We noted that the reverse lights are not working and while the cowl opens for the wipers, they do not wipe. All other functions work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Here's a fantastic opportunity to land yourself a desirable Stingray from 1970. This one is ready to go and show worthy!
