EXTERIOR: Wow, it's a sharp looker. Corvette offered 2 reds, this one was ordered with the brighter Mille Miglia. The body looks great. I did not see any signs of damage, the body gaps are excellent. I believe it is a no hit body. Upfront the grills and bumper align really well. In back the bumpers sit level. It was repainted once, it has a very glossy smooth finish. There are minor flaws if you look for them. Has original vin decal in the door jamb. All the chrome is exceptionally bright too. The bumpers, door handles, mirrors, emblems, trim on the hood looks new. 15 inch rally wheels have bright trim. Has the correct Firestone Steel Belted tires. Has removable T-tops and the rear window even pops out. All those items stores behind the seat.
INTERIOR: Original, unabused interior. It has mint condition door panels. The whole dash area is excellent. The chrome bezels around the console sparkles. The original upholstery is in excellent shape but the original seat cushions should be replaced. Has original carpet has a little tattering the dash pad is mint a plastic trim, I would leave it original. There is an aftermarket stereo that does fit in the factory hole. Has deluxe shoulder belts. New seat cushions and you would have a real nice, original interior. Originality brings a premium in a Corvette.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Also very original, unmolested. It has it's numbers matching LS-5 454 with 365 horsepower. Has all the stock manifolds, the original valve covers and air cleaner. Has ignition shielding and braided plug wires. Features factory air conditioning which is all complete. Also has power steering. Everything looks proper- the fan shroud, alternator, vacuum hoses etc. The engine stamp pad looks very authentic, has visible broach marks. I have no doubt it is the motor it was born with.
UNDERSIDE: Very nice original condition. Clean, raw fiberglass floors, black chassis. Bottom of motor is clean, has flywheel cover. Has original Turbo 400 automatic. Original 3.08 posi rear with independent suspension. It even has an original Firestone tire for a spare. 4 shocks have been replaced. Rear spring is upgraded with fiberglass and new bushings. Exhaust system looks good, has original square tips going out the valance.
Only driven a few hundred miles in the last decade. This is an investment grade, low mile Corvette with matching #s and very desirable features.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
