Description of 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

AA lot of guys claim they just want a Corvette to drive. Well, here it is. With a strong 350 cubic inch V8, this 1974 Chevrolet Corvette roadster is made for the road. Guys shopping for trailer queens and paperwork collectors can go somewhere else, because we're having too much fun putting this one through its paces!
If you look at the paint charts, you'll see that GM called this particular shade code 68 "Dark Brown." So it's not the most creative name but the color MY WifeCalls It ROOTBEER looks right on the mid-70s Corvette curves. This one is driver-grade throughout, and there's no shame in that. Get bugs on it, drive it in the rain, and generally have some fun, it doesn't mind. It's nice enough to happily soak up all the attention you'll give it on a Saturday afternoon, polishing and waxing the sleek bodywork, and unlike many Corvettes of the era, this one fits together well and all the panels line up right, so someone was paying attention when it went together. The point is, this is a good-looking car that doesn't need a lot of fussing, and given the long list of replacement parts under the skin, it's pretty clear that someone invested a lot of time and effort on the car to make it right. The headlight doors work properly, the badges are shiny, the front grilles aren't beat up and bent, and, well, the car looks great without being a parody of itself like so many other C3s.
The code 416 saddle leather interior is also correct for this particular car, and there's a lot of new stuff in this driver's compartment. Other goodies include cold A/C with an R134a refrigerant upgrade, AM/FM stereo. As a convertible, it's especially important that the weather-stripping is new, and this is one ragtop that's surprisingly devoid of creaks and rattles, suggesting it's lived an easy life. It also includes aWhite convertible top!
The original, numbers-matching 350 cubic inch V8 still lives under the cowl-induction hood. The list of new mechanical equipment is a page long, so call us for all the details, but the highlights includeall new hosesa new radiator fan shrou, new ac and heat controls new fuel pump new carb, newwater pump and heater core, A/C service and converted to 134r,. A set of finned valve covers add a racy look and yes, the cowl-induction setup is operational. Chevy orange paint adds a little contrast to the all-business engine bay, and while it's not show-quality, you won't hesitate to just get out and drive. Underneath, the TH400 3-speed automatic transmission feeds a 3.08 rear end, so it's an effortless cruiser and that powerful engine doesn't mind the relatively tall gears. It tracks straight, stops smoothly, and just goes about its business the way you'd expect.t and they 235/60/15 BFGoodrich T/A radials that have plenty of life left in them.
