1974 Chevrolet Corvette 2 Owner Loaded With Options Original Engine.

1974 Chevrolet Corvette

Hi,this auction is for my 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Blue,with a Blue interior. T-Tops. I`m the second owner.I bought the car on 12/22/07. I bought it from the original owner. Her name is Diane Cross.She used the car for 8 years and put a total of 77,500 miles. In 1982 she bought a new car and the Vette stayed in her garage till 2007,for a total of 25 years.The Vette now has 88,500 miles. I put 11,000 miles on the car in the past 11 years. The car has never been hit. There has been 1 repaint from the original owner. The blue seems a little darker than the inside door jambs that still have the original paint. The paint looks good,but there are some bubbles and scratches .Good paint for a daily driver. The Engine,transmission,rear end,and carb. are all original . Car runs and drives good.Interior looks very good. The Vette is loaded with Power steering,Power brakes.Electric Windows,Working Air Conditioning,AM- FM Stereo,rear defogger,Tilt- Telescoping wheel. The only luxury option it was missing is the deluxe leather interior. I I just had the seat foam replaced with original Leather covers. I also replaced the carpet and door panels with deluxe door panels and deluxe carpet. It looks really nice.
Someone stole my T-Tops 2 months ago. I bought another set,but their darker blue than the car and in very good condition. The original owner drove the car in the snow in Ohio for 8 winters. Rust has developed in front of the rear tires. When I bought the Vette 11 years ago. I had metal strips welded on the frame to make it stronger. The frame needs some more welding work in front of driver`s rear tire where there is a 4 inch crack. This is a nice original car,that can be driven everyday. The new owner should do some frame work and like I said the paint looks great in pictures,but has bubbles and scratches.My price reflects the problems with the paint and the rust issues on the frame. This is a real good looking Vette that can be bought for a low price. Any questions,call Paul at 310-804-3599 or message me. I have all the original paperwork. window sticker,and owner`s manual.
Since I`ve owned the car,I replaced both rear complete trailing arms,rebuilt the carb.,changed the timing belt,regular oil changes,transmission fluid changes,new tires,front suspension work,new shocks,new mufflers, battery,brake pads and calipers,new water pump,headlight actuators,weatherstripping on front windshield,tires are in great condition. The car needs a new power brake booster. Car starts right up and runs and drives good.
I`ll finish off the description with this. The Vette was never abused.The original owner Diane Cross bought the car new on Christmas Eve,1973. She was a school teacher that drove the car back and forth to work for 8 years. Her Husband James used it every Saturday to go golfing.The car was garaged every night,but she drove it in the snow for 8 winters in Cleveland,Ohio.This is the reason the Vette got rusted in front of the rear wheels. When I bought the car 11 years ago I had some metal pieces welded in the frame to strengthen it. On the driver`s side in front of the rear wheel their is a 4 inch crack that will need some welding. The cars drives fine as i, but this is the first area I would work on if I was the next owner.In one of my pictures,you can see some rust in the inside of the driver`s door. I had the birdcage checked when I bought the car and it was good. The car has never been hit and has a super straight body. The original owners did a repaint years ago,the paint is still shiny and looks good from 10 feet away. But whoever painted the car got contamination near both outside door handles and you can see the bubbles in one of my pictures. The Engine,transmission,and rear end are all original to car. The interior looks great. I added new seat foam,beautiful real leather covers,new original deluxe carpet and deluxe door panels.Parts and labor were around $3,000.This is a nice Vette that needs the work I`ve described and is priced fairly. Message me with any questions,my name is Paul,`I`ve owned and driven Vettes the past 35 years. I`m trying to let you know all the good and bad with the car,just like I would want if I was buying it.I have 100 % feedback and a life long passion for cars. Every car I`ve owned that I sold on E Bay worked out great for me and the buyer.Thanks.
