Bought a '73 Coupe today!
Had my eye on this Beauty for sometime. After acquiring my '98 C5, I came across this C3 and knew right away I had to bring it home to join the the '98. The thought of 2 white vettes of my 2 favorite generation styles was enough to keep the pressure on for me to stay in pursuit of the 1973 which to me is among the most underrated years, but it seems '73 popularity is on the rise based on the price trend I have followed of sold vehicles.
This particular '73 has been very well cared for and has received one recent re-paint to Classic White (color code 910), though the original color is Silver (color code 914).
Everything works perfectly as it should and the literally needs nothing mechanically. Cosmetically there is a tad bid of crazing on the front number center point, but nothing detracting at all. The undercarriage is clean enough to eat off and is show condition!
It drives wonderfully and truly operates like the day it was new. A very nice surprise for a '73 transition year that I have craved and longed for now for many years.
Here are some pics, I'll post some more later...
