1970 Corvette Convertible-Maryland
For Sale in Annapolis, Maryland. Asking $21,000.00. 1970 Corvette convertible. This old girl started life July 8, 1970 Laguna gray with saddle interior and a 350CI/350HP engine, AM/FM radio, 3.70 Ratio rear axle auxiliary hard top, power brakes and white lettered tires. I have the original order/invoice for her. She was purchased new in Springfield, VA on July 22, 1970 and spent most of her life in Virginia except for being purchased by me in 2013 from F and A Corvettes and moved to Maryland. Somewhere along her life’s journey she was painted candy apple red and finally her current bright red (she is a 10 footer). I still have the hard top but it needs to be painted as it is currently sporting a not so beautiful brown primer paint. She is a unique girl in that someone tried to make her into a LT1 clone. She has the correct 4555 Holley double pumper carb, the aluminum Winters snowflake intake and what I’ve been told is a solid lifter cam. The engine is not the original engine as the numbers on the engine pad are mostly gone. The block casting number indicates that the block is a 1973 350CI Chevrolet L48 built in Sept 18,1973. She has headers and is loud, just ask my neighbors, fortunately they like me and tolerate my travels up and down the street to stretch her legs. In 2016 I took her to Tony’s Corvette in Gaithersburg, MD and she had a $13,000.00 spa day to do a mechanical re-fresh to include SS brakes, rebuild carb, steering box and front end rebuilt, new fuel pump and lines, all fluids changed, tune-up and distributor work. While on the lift we looked at her frame and she appears really solid with no soft or major rust spots. She has her original transmission and rear axel. She has new weather-strip all around , new tires and rims, and a new black cloth convertible top. Her interior needs a re-fresh but still looks good, just old. Her exhaust system will need replacing and she has no spare tire container or original jack. The clock amazingly works but the radio does not. I have the original Chevrolet Retail Order for a Motor Vehicle, and the invoice from Command Chevrolet in Springfield, VA. There is also an intake and Rochester carb that I believe came with the engine before her makeover into a LT1 clone. Let me know if you have any questions.
