1975 Chevrolet Corvette

This 1975 Chevrolet Corvette is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. 1975 would make for very sad year in the Corvette world as the Father of the Corvette, Zora Arkus-Duntove, would retire this year. The chief engineer since the beginning he was an instrumental part of making the Corvette a world renowned race winning machine. Beginning life in 1953 as a little two seater with a 235 cubic inch 6 cylinder it looked as if it would not make it past the first two years. With dismal performance not only on the road but as well as sales the future appeared bleak for the little two seater. All of that would change in 56 with the introduction of GM's all new V8. Backed up by a 3 speed manual transmission it turned the vette into a bonafied sports car. This 1975 stingray is a great example of how far the little two seater had come in just 22 years. The fiberglass appears to have its original dark red paint which shows very well. The true chrome spoke knock off wheels look great and compliment the car very well. Under the hood is the original 350 CID motor that is believed to have less than 36 thousand original miles. Though it can be verified the motor sounds and feels like it has had a cam put in it on long the way. Off idle to over 3500 RPM the car pulls a lot harder than any stock 75 that’s for sure. A new ignition system was added to make it more reliable and of course better running. The great exhaust note has been enhanced by the new exhaust which sounds absolutely wonderful. The glass t tops look amazing and are in great condition and even have the bags to go with it. Open the door and the original interior is rather great condition for a 40 year old vehicle. The tan vinyl bucket seats are very comfortable and go very well with the exterior paint. If you have been wanting a true Stingray but didn't want to spend an arm and a leg for one this wonderful example could be right done you alley.
