Here’s
some history on the ’70 model year from VetteFacts.com: “The 1970
Chevrolet Corvette replaced the 4 side gills with an egg-crate vents on
the side. The fenders were flared slightly to keep rocks from being
kicked up and scratching the paint. The seats were redesigned again,
this time to create more headroom. 1970 enlarged the "Big Block" (known
as the Rat motor) to its largest displacement at 454 ci. The relatively
low production in 1970 was caused by a labor dispute that started in
May of 1969. This dispute caused the 1969 production run to be
stretched 4 months and the 1970 run to be cut short.” So,
out of the short run of 17,316… only 6,648 were convertibles. An even
smaller number of those convertibles were big block, 4 speed cars and
an even smaller number of those were Cortez Silver. That makes this a
very rare car. Surely, this is one of the nicest un-restored, original
survivors of that small number of coveted cars. With
this car, 454 performance tuned cubic inches with a 4 speed manual
transmission and strong clutch ensure a fun filled feeling of power in
a driver’s hands. Excellent suspension and brakes make certain that
experience is smooth and safe. It steers and stops straight, smooth and
effortlessly; just the way it should!

Just
because it hasn’t been restored does not mean that it needs anything.
Extensive maintenance in August 2006, to ensure perfection, included
NEW wheel bearings, OEM mufflers, radiator, accelerator pump, wiper
motor, complete brakes, clutch, shocks, leaf springs and a complete
transmission rebuild. At that time, appearance enhancements done
included carpet kit, floor mats and door sills. Few miles driven since
that time. This car lives in a heated and carpeted garage. Dash
is uncut and original AM/FM is included with the car. For driver
enjoyment, this classic driver features AM/FM/CD/Satellite stereo with
new upgraded speakers. Yes, the clock keeps accurate time, as well. Repaint
was done about 10-15 years ago and needs nothing. It shines like new
with no flaws. There are no apparent signs of previous damage and the
car is believed to be untouched. There is no checking, scratches or
swirls in this paint. There are no squeaks or rattles in the body or
interior components.

Old
cars sometimes have minor issues that never seem to get solved. Not
this baby. From the fiber optics, indicating exterior light
performance, to the perfectly functioning vacuum operated headlights…
everything works just as it should! Unlike many old ‘Vettes, the pop
up headlight vacuum equipment enclosure is spotless. These
old big block cars need to be tuned for performance and this one has
been done by one of the premier performance shops in the Pacific
Northwest, Blood Enterprises in Auburn, WA. Part of the most recent
tune up included new exhaust manifold gaskets, exhaust donuts and major
carburetor service. In
short, there has been an ongoing effort to assure that this car is
always looking and operating it’s very best and it has been done
without the restraint of expense. That’s money that a new owner will
not have to spend. You can enjoy this car immediately, knowing that it
does not have any deferred maintenance or repairs to deal with. Appraisal
of $50,000 just completed by Lance Lambert, National Automotive Dealers
Association (NADA) Classic, Collectible & Special Interest Car
Advisory Board member and host of television's "Vintage Vehicle Show"
which appears weekly on 78 television stations in the US and also TV
networks in 27 foreign markets. The new owner will receive the vehicle maintenance file with receipts, original owner’s manual and other literature. Call 425-444-4336 or email 67musclecar70@gmail.com. If you are out of the Pacific Northwest, I can send you transport information.
