"What is the 270 HP 350?"

L-82 was 250 HP, maybe an honest mistake and the L-82 emblem was left off the hood, or it's the 190 HP base 350. Either way, the low miles make it a special car.

Definitely a cool low mileage car...

But why do all these Craigslist ads have the same negative tone???

Looks like a decent very low mileage Vette. Seems like a great buy at $19K

It's a pre-emptive strike in trying to deal with all the rustlers, cut throats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswogglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, a$$-kickers, ****-kickers, tire kickers - and Methodists - on Craigslist.

----It seems you have that handled, Keith!
---- Pretty neat Vette. some good options, including tilt wheel, deluxe interior, and good colors. Those are important options during the low HP years. Also, many, many Corvettes in this age range got really bad paint jobs right out of the factory. Dealer repaints under warrantee happened frequently. I did it on a brand new 75 convert I bought off the floor from Jack Douglas. They couldn't even do a decent white paint job.....SAD!......Bill S

They didn't call out the L82 on the hood in 1973, but I don't think it's an L82 any way.

Nice car but does anyone else notice how the pictures never show the front rubber bumper. Maybe on purpose?

Growing up....that was the Achilles heal with 1973 on up....at least where I lived.

I bought a 73 my senior year in high school and still have it. I parked it about 6 months after graduation and have never driven it since. about 10 years after it was parked I walked by it and saw almost all of the front bumper laying on the ground in front of it. just fell apart on its own.

I added "tire kickers" on my own.

I sorta got caught up in what I was doing...

Most of the cars I saw had a little dimple (or bare spot) right on the front tip of the bumper. We used to call it "the Corvette Kiss".
