I think it's a close call between the 68 and 73, but the 73 stands out from all the other C3s most.
Those of us who own an 81, with zero votes, will leave now.

For uniqueness I went with the 73. One chrome and one soft bumper, and its the only year with that type of combination.

wow im suprised, i knew that the 73 would b high, but i also thought the 74 would be, first year for the rear rubber bumper, the only year for the split tail, and last year for the big block option

So, when will someone wise up and start building new '69 Corvettes. You can already buy a new '69 Camaro.

Depends more on what one does to it than the year.

I'm partial to the 73, obviously. No, but really I think it is true and a very distinct year.

I chose 68 because of all the chrome and being the first of its kind, but after I have to say 73 and 68 tie IMO

I made my choice on what I thought was the most "unique" C3, not my favorite. A poll on "favorite" C3 would change this poll dramatically. Most owners would vote for the one they own or the one they wish they owned.
