1973 Chevrolet Corvette

Based on the Mako Shark II concept car from 1965, the third-generation Corvette has always been appealing to enthusiasts everywhere thanks to its smooth and sinewy lines. Of course, the massive power available to go along with that Coke bottle shape didnt hurt either. One look at this 1973 Chevrolet Corvette LS4 454, and its easy to see why C3s are quickly gaining popularity with collectors. Fully repainted in its original Classic White exterior coat, this numbers-matching car has a Baldwin Motion-style blue metallic stripe and accents added to the rear and on its L88-style hood for a bit more personality. Combined with a set of polished U.S. Mags wheels and thunderous side pipes, this car is sure to turn heads wherever it goes. Inside, we find a correct-looking black leather interior, plus this Vette has a tilt wheel, power steering, and air conditioning for those days that are just too hot to pop the T-tops and enjoy the open air. A Retro Sounds head unit adds an AM/FM/Aux/Bluetooth head unit without standing out as an obvious (and out of place) upgrade. The woodgrain door panel and console inserts add a nice contrast to the dark dashboard where two big gauges send back info on RPM and speed, while a five-pod setup sits center-mounted atop the console to provide all the auxiliary information needed to maintain vehicle health. Pop open that signature front-hinged engine cover, and we are treated to a sea of polished chrome, which complements the Stingray emblem on the underside of the hood. Polished Chevrolet valve covers and a polished air clearer, which sports the Crossed Flags logo while also advertising that this is indeed a 454 cubic-inch V-8. With its matching numbers, this big block is upgraded with an Edelbrock intake manifold, Holley four-barrel carburetor, and Hooker long tube headers before heading out to those massive and menacing side pipes. A TH400 three-speed automatic transmission sends power to the Corvette rear, then to 255/60R-15 Mickey Thompsons tires at the rear, while a power steering-assisted set of 235/60R-15 up front handles directional duties.
