Nice! Not my color, but I really love the original rally wheels and correct size tires. So many classic cars have been ruined with 30" ghetto wheels without tires.

Thanks Gerald. I must admit, the color has grown on me. It really pops in the sun. I get plenty of complements on it. It certainly speaks to the early 70's! I am a purist at heart for these car. Gotta have the right wheels and tires;)

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING SURVIVOR CORVETTE L82 BEAUTIFUL CAR.

My only regret in watching this video is.....I can't afford to BUY IT!

I have a 73 coupe but not like this stunning car and L82. One of the best engines ever.

An L82 isn't even in the top 10 of "best " Corvette engines

First year for radial tire option. In conjunction w/chassis & suspension upgrades for '73, a much more silent, responsive, & comfortable ride was realized w/radial rubber @ all 4 corners. An easily-realized improvement over the 1972 Stingray.

Car is beautiful one year wonder chrome in the back rubber in the front

"That" is f***ing beautiful."

WHAT A CAR!!!!

OMG Beautiful!!!!

Corvette c3 - pure art on 4 wheels.

Unbelievable beauty! I fell in love!

Something real cool about the genre of a car back in 73, this Corvette, ONLY has the one outside mirror on the driver's side and of course you set it by hand. No passenger mirror. They carried that through 1974 at least. The way the body of the Corvette was, is that the mirror had to have a really tall arm on it to carry the quarter panel. That is how things were back then and I love it!

Very nice vet. See if you can get the the headlights to open and close together. Then, get back to me. Very interested. Thank you. Best Regards,

Lovely car.

Beautiful classic Vette. Unique color. Love it.

Hermoso Auto 😊 lo venden 😊 ahun esta disponible? Les mando un cordial saludo y un fuerte abrazo desde Puebla 😊 México 👋.

Beautiful car and since nothing is mentioned about the transmission or axle then it should be the standard transmission which was the M20 Wide Ratio with the 3.36 axle which was the standard setup with air conditioning and a nice combo. Other ratios were 3.55 or 3.70 and there was also the M21 Close Ratio transmission which was also available.

This particular car is an M21 3.55 ratio. Overall, the combination of rear gear and the M21 make for a really nice package behind the L82. I appreciate the interest!

​@@bouldermotorcar Ok I assumed when you posted the other options that the M21 and optional axle ratio would have shown up. And on the 73 Power Teams chart the M21 with 3.55 and A/C does not show as being available. With A/C it shows M20 standard with 3.36 and 3.55 optional. With the optional M21 it comes with a 3.70 and that's it. You have paperwork showing different?

5 owners and I bet each one of them made money on the car. Its beautiful. For my collection, needed less ownership however

Yes

how much would you take for it?

L-82 engines had deep groove pulleys on the alternator, water pump pulley and crank pulley. I think the alternator has been changed and thus the deep groove pulley is gone. Check the fan pulley, it seems not to be correct but hard to tell on the video. I have a similar '76 and this car is beautiful. Very nice.

The car most certainly has its original dated alternator and assembly line pulley's. The belts are parts store replacements, and probably sit higher in the pulley's giving that illusion.

@@bouldermotorcar The alternator pulley were not the usual stamped piece but is turned from solid piece of steel. All the solid lifter engines in any of the Chevy products had these as well either small blocks or big blocks. They were also slightly larger in diameter. Also my car has a tach with a 6000 rpm redline but no A/C. It looks like this one has a 5500 redline if I'm seeing it right. Hard to tell for sure. Perhaps because it has A/C.

When you replace what was dried out, belts, hoses, door and window seals, blown bulbs with OEM parts…..is it a survivor or ???

@bouldermotorcar

Absolutely it is. Items such as drivetrain, paint, interior, chassis finishes, dated components, etc. are what make up a "Survivor". Other items that you listed are what are considered to me maintenance items. If this car is still in my possession next year, it will go through the same judging process's my 70 LS5 Coupe did (NCRS 4 Star Bowtie, Bloomington Gold Benchmark, MCACN Triple Diamond, and Vintage Certification Time Capsule)

Better than nice.

Sweet survivor car. Just looked it up. Too bad they are one of those "call for price" places.

Many people that purchase cars from me do not want the price out there. The price only concerns the buyer and myself.

I had one in Elkhart green. Was a pain to work on . Primative suspension, cramped interior, no trunk. Not my favorite GM muscle car.

I have a survivor 73. No way this is all original. Weatherstrip is new too.

@bouldermotorcar

You are certainly entitled to your thoughts. But, I have been around Corvette's all my life. While this is abnormal, it's not unheard of. The weatherstrips (and the glue beneath) is all original. The car has been carefully stored and cared for. The weatherstrips on my 8900 mile 70 LS5 (4 Star Bowtie / Bloomington Benchmark, MCACN Triple Diamond, Vintage Certification Time Capsule) car is much the same as this 73.

What’s price?

No way that’s an original 11k car! Look at the wear on the clutch pedal…if you could see it that fast. Nice try though!

73' first year of the "govt f..d up the chrome" and downgraded the horsepower. nice survivor car but 72 and back is a "real" corvette. fyi, had a 73 one time and 3 69's.....plastic (endura) front bumper.....suck. replaced mine w/fibreglass.

From what I read Corvette enthusiast consider the 1974 as the last real Vette as it had dual exhaust and no catalytic converter.

unless chrome is your favorite color

It is NOT original paint since the bumper has been replaced and painter and does not even match the rest of the car and it is NOT untouched since parts have been replaced.

@bouldermotorcar

2 ай бұрын

As many that know these cars, the bumpers do NOT stand the test of time. They are fragile and brittle in the BEST of conditions. Furthermore, the paint match was poor when the cars were new. Regarding the parts in the car, I suppose you are correct in a sense. But, the car has been maintained in excellent running condition. A few items that have been replaced are the byproduct of a 50 plus year old automobile. I merely pointed out what has been done, and properly represent the car. Regardless, the car is wonderful and original example, that would be successful in any BG, NCRS, and MCACN judging discipline(s).
