The fiberglass body was originally finished in Saddle Tan (932) and has been refinished in white. Features include a removable hardtop and a replacement white convertible soft top as well as flip-up headlamps, fender vents, quad tail lamps, and chrome bumperettes. A side-exit exhaust system has been installed.
Silver-finished 15” steel wheels feature three-eared knock-off spinners and are mounted with a mixture of Firestone and Lemans tires. The C2 was the first Corvette to offer fully independent suspension, with upper and lower control arms at the front and a three-link setup with a transverse leaf spring at the rear. The car is equipped with power steering, and braking is handled by four-wheel power-assisted drums. The seller reports that the brakes are grippy.
The cabin features two bucket seats that have been reupholstered in tan leather as well as matching door panels and carpets. Amenities include a heater, an AM/FM radio, an analog clock, power windows, and lap belts. The carpets are also said to have been replaced.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, amperage, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 29k miles.
The 327ci L75 V8 was rated at 300 horsepower when new. A leak is noted from the head gasket, and corrosion is present on the valve covers and brake master cylinder.
The engine stamping is shown above, and its RD suffix corresponds with a 300-horsepower, 327ci V8 for use with a manual transmission.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
