Nice looking car. I like the idea that it is unrestored. I will question the "all original" comment though. I would go with mostly original or even leave it at "unrestored".
Don't want to get into the "this is wrong/incorrect or that is incorrect" issue.

still, regardless, looks like a nice vette...
and I like the side pipes! When I see photos like that I get excited about putting the original style side pipes on my 70 vette...cause they look so good!
dudes!

He has an error on his placard. 1970 corvette production was the lowest since 1962, not 1953. And now 1997 production would also be included as being lower.
Have never seen a 1970 manifold with numbered intake runners, only on 1971 & 1972 LT-1's. Not sure what vin # the car is, but I don't think even the cars into the 17000's had numbered intake runner manifolds.

Sidepipes were only an option for 1969. That is not to say that the dealer didn't have a set and install them, but it is not a factory option.

Numbers on intake runners didn't appear until 1971 late production. I would have to look over car before I would say it's legit. My blue 70 LT-1 was more original than this car still it's a nice Vette. I looks like it could be one of the 1287 THREEHUNDERED AN SEVENTY PONIES SEVENTY LT-1's made. Alternator pulley looks good, seems to have no powersteering, and radiator is correct.
