Description:

1971 Chevrolet Corvette

Beautiful correct restoration done about 10 years ago with an emphasis on originality and NCRS judging. This is the last of the high horsepower high torque Stingray's. Car Starts great, runs drives as it should no rattles or squeaks, and has the best exhaust note of any muscle car I have ever owned.

Recent updates include:

Rebuilt (March 2019) and correctly restored original (date correct) carburetor with all correct platting
Rebuilt (February 2019) and correctly detailed original (date correct) clutch fan
Correct reproduction battery (AGM) (will ship to new owner - battery is being manufactured expected early May)
Just spent over $7,000 at high end Corvette specialty shop (MasterWorks- Madison Heights Michigan) (April 2019) to ensure correctness and drivability for next owner -
A few of the services performed are new correctly riveted rear discs and spindles, brakes rebuilt, front end alignment, power windows repaired, windshield wiper functionality addressed, engine and trans seals replaced, rear wheel bearings, new correct ball joints, new correct heater hoses
All fluids just changed- correct reproduction oil filter.
All lights and fiber optics work, Radio works as well as all gauges.
Many miscellaneous NOS parts
Have receipts for the above plus the complete engine rebuild and misc receipts.
