Default 1973 CORVETTE - 26K Original Miles

I purchased this gorgeous Vette from a gent I worked with for 20 years who is now retired. Single all his life he treated this like his baby, parked in the early 80's and not driven for 15 years. He purchased the car in August 1975 and owned until I purchased last year. The Vette now has 26,000 original miles. The prior owner decided to paint the car about 12 years ago, he could not stand the small lacquer cracks. I replaced the front urethane bumper with GM NOS and had painted/installed by a professional Corvette shop locally. I had the car flight judged at the 2019 Lone Star Regionals in Frisco, TX, great organization. I had the car completely tuned, brakes, exhaust, wiper washer pump, fuel system all serviced with correct parts and to NCRS standards at the cost of over 6k. Many of the small items deducted when flight judged have been fixed. This was all done by the same professional Corvette shop that sponsors the NCRS Lone Star Club. This Vette is ready to tour the USA with no issues. I installed repro Goodyear Steelgard GR70-15 tires, the spare is still original. I have a binder with paperwork to include the build sheet we found when pulling the tank. Car delivered to Bud Donahue Chevrolet, Milwaukee, WI. Production date was 10/18/1972. This is an outstanding car with gorgeous paint. Options include T Tops, Power Windows, Power Steer, Power Brakes, Leather Trim, Defogger which I understand is somewhat rare, AC that blows cold, Gauges that all work to include the clock, Tilt, AM/FM Stereo. T Top cover, shims and jack is all included. The prior owner did do the L82 upgrades such as valve covers and exhaust. Standard 350 with Turbo 400 Automatic. SOLD
