Default Original 73 cost

I have a '73 454 with T-tops, AT, PS, PB, Tilt/telescopic, AM/FM, deluxe interior, and power windows. Does anyone have the original stick cost for this car or a site with this info?
Thanks,
Ran-D

I can give you rough idea, when I ordered my 73 it was the same as yours you have two options mine did not have, Automatic, power
windows, mine listed a little over 6800. I have the original sales brochure.

Rough guess from NADA:

Original MSRP: $5,635

Your best bet is to call GM and register your VIN with them. They will send you a packet with all kinds of info on your car including the original sticker price.

corvette yellow metalic ( gold ) T-top, black leather, 454, M21, 336 posi
trac, tilt colum , am/fm stereo.

Try:

The pricing is listed in the website. The transportation costs depended on where the dealer was located and vary based on the distance from St. Louis.

Ok, sorry for the delay, I had to dig the number back out.

1-800-222-1020 at the first prompt press 4. On the second prompt press 3.

Just let the rep know you want to register you car with them and ask for all or any info to be mailed out to you.
