Description:

1971 Chevrolet Corvette Base Coupe

Vehicle was purchased in 2013 and painted in 2016 by a professional body shop. Stripped down to bare fiberglass and primed and painted victory red (new corvette color). Paint has not yet been wet sanded or buffed and still shines nice. Doors and trim were removed, and all jams painted. Bird cage and frame were inspected with no rust issues.
Vehicle was originally Green with a green interior. Interior is original, color dyed black by the previous owner. It's passable for a driver but should really be replaced.
Motor is believed to be the original 350V8/270HP with 4 speed transmission. Motor rebuilt by previous owner (2010) and includes a gear drive which gives it a supercharger "whine". Since I've owned it I changed out the points system for an electronic one, much improved power and reliability. Odometer reads 26,409, most likely 126,409 (video running can be sent upon request)
If your looking for a perfectly restored chrome bumper vette this is not for you, If a nice driver you can be proud of is your bag this is your car. Price reflects what the car is. Vehicle is listed for sale locally and auction can be cancelled at anytime.
