About Product
This 1973 Chevrolet Corvette is a tastefully updated example of the third-generation “C3” model, finished in Sunset Fire Prism with a Brown interior and equipped with several performance and reliability upgrades.
The C3 generation, produced from 1968 to 1982, marked a major evolution for America’s sports car, introducing the now-iconic “Coke bottle” styling. The 1973 model year was notable for being the first Corvette with a body-colored front bumper, replacing the previous chrome units while retaining chrome at the rear — a one-year-only design distinction highly appreciated by collectors.
This example is powered by a L82-code 350-cubic-inch V8, paired with a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. It has been enhanced with modernized components for improved cooling and drivability, making it a well-balanced mix of vintage design and mechanical reliability.
