1970 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible 454/390 4-Speed C3

This 1970 Chevrolet Corvette convertible was acquired out of Texas by the selling dealer in 2023 and relocated to Canada. Subsequent work involved replacing the fuel tank, battery, and one brake caliper. Power is provided by a 454ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and a Positraction limited-slip differential. Finished in red over black upholstery, the car has a white soft top, a body-color removable hardtop, 15″ Rally wheels, disc brakes, retractable headlights, a cabin heater, and an AM/FM stereo. This C3 Corvette is now offered by the selling dealer with Ontario registration. The car left the factory finished in Donnybrooke Green and was repainted in its current shade of red under prior ownership. Paint touch-ups were performed in October 2023. The car has a body-color removable hardtop as well as pop-up headlights, twin front grilles, and fender vents. A tear on the left side of the soft top and separation at the rear window are depicted in the gallery below. The 15″ Rally wheels are mounted with 225/70 Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires. The car is equipped with a fully independent suspension, and stopping power is provided by ventilated rotors at each corner. The front left brake caliper was replaced in October 2023. The cabin was refreshed under prior ownership and features bucket seats trimmed in black. Appointments include a cabin heater and an AM/FM stereo.
