Default 1970 Corvette Stingray Project car available

I have a 1970 Stingray Corvette which was a factory 350 with 350 HP with a 4 speed. The car does not have the original motor but had it replaced a number of years ago with a GM LT1 crate motor.

The car has been sitting for about 20 years and needs a decent amount of work but the frame is solid and the fiberglass is also in very good condition.

Located in Michigan.

I think Wolfran was referring to the car posted by RLDVLT1.

Actuality I was talking about the one you bought few days ago the 70.
It looks a good car how much did you pay for it , if May I know.
I have a 74 but I would like to buy a 69 to 73 because I like the flat rear, I'm just curious about how much you pay for yours.

I also have a 74 but always wanted a 70 (The same year I was born) They are the nicest looking of the C3s IMO.
So I keep an eye out for a 70 to come up for sale, saw this and jumped at the chance right away.
