1973 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe 454 V8 3 Speed Automatic Classic Vintage Collecto

With its distinctive style, original big 454 V8, and a value price, this 1973 Chevrolet Corvette hits all the right notes when you want big power without breaking the bank. This Stingray's deep shade of blue has a nice gloss that really brings out the curves when the sunshine finds this coupe. That's a good thing, because '73 was a distinctive year. The chrome bumper was replaced by form-fitting color-matched unit that integrated into the rest of the...body almost seamlessly. This gave a whole new dimension to the car as the shaper front end seemed to be the right fit with C3's well-creased silhouette. What also makes the '73 unique is that it's the only year with the new front, but retains the chrome in the rear. After all, an American classic like this deserves proper shine. It seems to make these extra desirable as the brightwork here coordinates nicely with the rockers, trim, and Rally wheels. And so when you see a crisp blue coupe with plenty of shine, you know you're looking at timeless style. The T-tops let you open this up to the world, and the factory-correct Midnight Blue interior makes for a distinctive package against the blue exterior. Plus, this coupe come with some nice features like power windows, the factory AM/FM stereo, and provisions for air conditioning. This is built to be a true driver's machine, and that's why you get a bucket seats, a three-spoke sports steering wheel, full auxiliary gauge panel at eye-level, and a large speedo and tach. Under the hood is what we all love to see â€" an engine bay filled with big block power. This is the numbers-matching 454 cubic-inch V8, and it really has a terrific look of originality. Even the details are great, like the factory decals and the gasket that seals the air element to the fresh air cowl hood. Plus, you'll see the right investments in maintenance with good hoses, correct components, and an aluminum radiator. This big block inhales deeply from a proper Quadrajet four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with plenty of rumble out of the dual exhaust. It's a classic that's set up to enjoy the grand tour, so you have features like power steering and a TH400 three-speed automatic transmission. But like any good Corvette, this is also ready for the backroads. After all, how many other '70s machines offered big block power with the control of a fully independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes? Complete with owner's manual, this is the classic big block machine that you can enjoy driving. And at a price like this, you know you're not the only one interested. Don't miss out, call today!
