INTRODUCTION: 4,075 actual miles! This is a time capsule that looks practically new. 1 owner until 1998, he put about 3,800 miles on it and put it up on blocks where it mostly sat the next couple decades. It has complete original documentation including build sheet, invoice, receipt, warranty book, manuals, and more.
EXTERIOR: Never been hit or damaged, actually it still has its original paint! Only the bumpers were repainted because of chipped paint, pictures are included. I am really impressed at just how nice the original paint is, this car could sit next to any car at a show and hold its own! All the original glass is crystal clear. The chrome, trim and weatherstrips are still in great shape. It's even sitting on original Goodyear Poly Steel tires wrapped around its original 15x8 rally wheels.
INTERIOR: It's as close as you can come to sitting in a brand new 1974 Corvette! The interior is untouched, unmodified and original. The deluxe interior includes genuine leather upholstery. The carpet front to back is excellent. The center console is mint, cigarette lighter hasn't been used. It has its original reverse lockout shifter and AM/FM radio. The steering wheel is not worn, nothing is worn!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It looks like it would have looked back in 1974! Its original VIN number matching 454 motor has never been out of the car. It is completely stock including the manifolds, carburetor and valve covers( there's still a paper sticker on the valve cover from 1974!) The original smog equipment is still hooked up, it also has a functioning cowl induction system and complete ignition shielding. Features include power steering and power brakes. All the components are clean and proper.
UNDERSIDE: It's very well preserved. The independent suspension and steering is working properly. The dual exhaust system is still original. It has disc brakes on all 4 wheels, and the e-brake is hooked up. The original raw fiberglass floors are in excellent shape, so is the spare tire carrier. The frame and chassis are clean. Looking up at the motor it looks clean and has its original numbers matching Borg Warner 4-speed transmission. In back is its original numbers matching 3.08 posi rear end.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car we sell.
CONCLUSION: This survivor did more than just survive, it lived a clean, easy life! I'm very impressed at how nice it is. The fact it's a 454, 4-speed really adds to the collectibility. Actually, this was the last year for the 454 Corvettes. Ready for judging, that can be a fun adventure that would only add to the car's value. You won't find another one!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide is my professional opinion based on my experience with these vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase the car and share our team's insights. ** Our cars are displayed within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
