DESERT AUTOSPORT IS VERY PLEASED TO BRING TO THE MARKETPLACE THIS 1970 CHEVROLET CORVETTE LS5 COUPE . THIS IS A REAL BIG BLOCK CORVETTE AND IT IS POWERED BY A 454 CUBIC INCH 390 HORSEPOWER MOTOR AND BACKED BY A 3 SPEED TURBO HYRDO- MATIC 400 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. IT IS FINISHED IN THE ORIGINAL COLOR OF MULSANNE BLUE AND COMPLIMENTED WITH A MATCHING BLUE INTERIOR. 1970 WAS THE LOWEST PRODUCTION YEAR FOR THE C3 CORVETTE DUE TO THE LABOR UNION STRIKE AND THE FIRST YEAR OF THE 454 ENGINE OPTION. IT WAS ALSO THE LAST YEAR FOR THE HIGH COMPRESSION MOTORS, MAKING 1970 ONE OF THE MOST DESIRABLE YEARS FOR C3 BIG BLOCK CORVETTES. WE SOLD THIS CAR IN 2009 TO ONE OF OUR GOOD CUSTOMERS AND HE WENT HOG WILD ON THE CAR MAKING IT ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. JUST AS HE FINISHED GETTING IT DIALED IN TO HIS STANDARDS, HE FELL IN LOVE WITH A 2008 CORVETTE WE HAD IN STOCK AND TRADED THE CAR BACK TO US. HE JUST HAD THIS VETT SERVICED FROM FRONT TO BACK AND IT NEEDS NOTHING BUT A NEW OWNER. THE PAINT WAS COMLETELY REDONE IN 2009 (WE HAVE PICTURES OF THE ENTIRE PROCESS) AND IT HAS A DEEP, RICH SHINE. EVERY EMBLEM WAS REPLACED AND EVEN A NEW ANTENNA WAS INSTALLED. THE CHROME SHINES LIKE NEW. THE INTERIOR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND WAS FULLY UPDATED IN 2010 INCLUDING NEW CARPETING WITH FULL DYNAMAT INSULATION THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE COCKPIT. ALL THE GAUGES WORK PERFECTLY, INCLUDING THE FIBER OPTICS AND THE CLOCK WAS UPDATED WITH A NEW QUARTZ MOVEMENT. THE ORIGINAL AM/FM RADIO IS INCLUDED BUT WAS REPLACED WITH AN UPDATED CUSTOM AUTOSOUND RADIO WITH XM SATELITE RADIO HOOKED UP PLUS NEW FRONT AND REAR SPEAKERS FOR YOUR LISTENING ENJOYMENT. THE DASH WAS REMOVED TO REWIRE ALL THE GAUGES AND REPLACE ALL THE BULBS AND THE VACUUM LINES FOR THE HEATING-A/C SYSTEM WERE ALSO REPLACED. IT HAS CHROME RALLY WHEELS WITH THE ORIGINAL CENTER CAPS (THE ORIGINAL WHEELS AND TRIM RINGS ARE AVAILABLE) WITH NEW BF GOODRICH RADIAL T/A TIRES. ALL THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS HAVE BEEN SERVICED AND THE CAR RIDES GREAT. THE MOTOR IS A REPLACEMENT 454 GM GOODWRECH CRATE MOTOR THAT RETAINS THE ORIGINAL AIR CLEANER, INTAKE MANIFOLD, EXHAUST MANIFOLDS, ACCESSORIES, POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES AND AIR CONDITIONING. THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT UPGRADES INCLUDE A BRAND NEW DEWITT’S ALUMINUM RADIATOR WITH DUAL SPAL ELECTRIC FANS. THIS CAR WILL RUN ALL DAY IN THE 100 DEGREE DESERT HEAT AND THE ENGINE TEMP WILL NOT CLIMB OVER 200 DEGREES! A BRAND NEW 140 AMP ALTERNATOR WAS ADDED TO HANDLE THE EXTRA LOAD FOR THE FANS. THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS SERVICED AND GONE THROUGH WITH A FINE TOOTH COMB AND BLOWS COLD. A BRAND NEW HEI DISTRIBUTOR, PLUGS AND WIRES WERE ADDED TO ENSURE THE CAR STARTS EASILY AND RUNS LIKE A TOP (THE ORIGINAL IGNITION SHIELDING, DISTRIBUTOR AND WIRES ARE INCLUDED). THE QUADRAJET CARB WAS REBUILT AND AN ELECTRIC CHOKE WAS ADDED. ALL THE VACUUM LINES UNDER THE HOOD HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND EVERYTHING WORKS PERFECTLY – INCLUDING THE WIPER DOOR AND HEADLIGHTS. A BUILT IN BATTERY TENDER/MINDER SYSTEM WAS ADDED TO KEEP THE BRAND NEW OPTIMA RED TOP BATTERY FULLY CHARGED WHILE THE CAR IS WAITING FOR YOU TO ENJOY IT. THE TRANSMISSION IS THE ORIGINAL NUMBERS MATCHING TURBO 400 THAT WAS EXCLUSIVE TO A BIG BLOCK LS5 454/390 HORSEPOWER ENGINE, ENSURING THAT THIS CAR STARTED OUT LIFE AS A LS5.
