1973 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe- Red/Black 350 CID-Automatic
This '73 Corvette presents as an excellent opportunity to invest the last year of the Chromed Bumper C3 Corvette at a reasonable price point. This one has been in storage for several years as part of a multiple car collection and is being offered for sale from the Estate. Although it starts, runs and drives, it will require mechanical work and cosmetic attention to be an excellent driver and to be ""casual show"" worthy. It was taken from the storage space to a local trusted mechanic and after draining and replacing the fuel, it was started, adjustments to the carburetor were made, the brake master cylinder and several lines were replaced, the transmission was filled and the battery was replaced. It ran well and was taken for a short drive. It was noted that the tachometer needs repair, the calipers and pads will need to be replaced and likely the tires as well. We have a copy of the work that was done by the mechanic. The air cleaner is a K&N, the manifold and carburetor are Edelbrock. The engine casting is 3970010, the engine pad suffix indicates a Flint December 3rd of 1973 build with a CHH suffix. The VIN does not match. Cosmetically, the overall paint condition appears as an older repaint, although shows very well and would benefit from a good cleaning and polish. The rear bumper chrome is dull and pitted. The interior shows overall as original and well preserved for the age. The wheels are chromed Cragar S/S 5 spoke on BF Goodrich G Force Tires. Factory options include Power Windows, Steering and Brakes and the Tilt-Telescopic Steering Column.
The mileage showing is 95,850.
Inspections are always welcomed and encouraged.
