I have had this Corvette since 1972 and am the second owner. It has not been restored, but is in good driving condition. The mechanical condition is good and everything currently works. The car is in near original condition with the following changes: stainless steel brake calipers, US Mag wheels and the seats have been recovered. Everything else is original or like the factory. The side pipes (covers are in poor condition) and the wide rear fender wells are factory items. Engine: 350 cu. In., 350 HP 11:00 to 1 Compression Ratio. The engine has been overhauled and bored about 15000 miles ago. It has forged pistons and the original forged steel crankshaft. The heads are the original heads and are the double-hump heads with 2.02 intake valves. Transmission: 4 Speed, Close Ratio, overhauled about 40000 miles ago and the synchronizer is weak on 4th gear. The car has a limited slip rear differential and does not have power steering or brakes nor air conditioning. The tires on the back are BF Goodrich, 305 50R15. The car was painted with Dupont Imron in 1988 and is in fair condition. The T-Tops are in good condition and the pneumatic systems works pretty well. The wiper door opens and closes properly as well as the headlights. Recent replacement parts include the alternator, fuel tank, stingray emblems, windshield, water pump and carburetor (four barrel Rochester Quadrajet). The car starts and runs fine, drive well and would make an good driver, but would need quite a bit of work to be a show car.
