She drove it until 1990 where she had it parked & left out of the country.

The air condition & smog emissions are complete, still in place. The belts are missing though. Shifts into all gears & brakes just fine. It was well maintained over the years by the same Corvette specialist "Corvette Service" in Hawthorne. Keep in mind, she was driving this Vette as her only car the last 2 years. The headlights work proper & vacuums are in good condition.Overall, A True California 1973 Corvette 454 #'s Matching. Only owned by 2 owner's since new & is in original condition.
