I went to look at this car tonight and was very impressed. This is a solid, original unmolested Corvette that looks and drives great. It has been well maintained by a real Corvette enthusiast. Someone please buy this car before I do!

1973ragtop. Correct color on the paint but not original. Not sure how old the paint is but it gets compliments.

Brian. Thanks for the comments.

Fortunately the rear end has not fallen out yet. I get a small amount of blue smoke out the right pipe if the car has been sitting for a while. It clears up after a minute. Valve guides? No other significant issues. AC was rebuilt about 5 years ago and still blows cold. Condenser will freeze up after a 15 or 20 mile drive and I suspect it may be overcharged. Still uses R12.

A double click should load the photos. If you still have trouble send me a PM and I can email them to you. Thanks for looking.
