This 1970 Chevrolet Corvette LT1 Convertible is one of only 1,287 produced that year. Its Cortez Silver exterior is complemented by a black convertible soft top and a black vinyl hardtop, an uncommon dual-top configuration that adds versatility and distinctiveness. Firestone F70-15 white letter tires wrap around 15-inch wheels, emphasizing the car's performance-oriented stance. Fresh from restoration with just 500 miles on the odometer, this LT1 sports newly refreshed chrome brightwork that contrasts brilliantly against the silver paint.
Black vinyl bucket seats dominate the interior, creating an authentic muscle car atmosphere. The door panels and trim have been carefully restored to factory specifications, maintaining the C3 Corvette's iconic look. An AM/FM radio is ready to provide your cruising soundtrack. The absence of power steering and air conditioning offers a pure, unfiltered driving experience that defined the era.
The numbers-matching 350 cubic inch LT1 V8 engine takes center stage. Recently rebuilt to factory specs, it's mated to the original Muncie M20 4-speed manual transmission. This powertrain combination delivers an authentic and exhilarating drive. The engine compartment showcases the LT1's signature finned aluminum valve covers and chrome air cleaner housing. A new stainless steel dual exhaust system adds a modern performance touch while maintaining a period-correct appearance and sound.
