In the year 1970, America's premiere sports car, the Corvette, was in its third generation and flaunted an exciting new design patterned after the Mako Shark II. The C3 Corvette gained further fame after the crew of Apollo 12 owned custom-painted C3 Corvettes as a result of the company offering free lease for astronauts. The C3 generation set new sales records and was the second model to use the Stingray name on a Corvette. That makes this particular listing — a lovely 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible — a classic icon with a rich heritage. According to reports, this car boasts a frame-off restoration completed in 2016 and a new engine with less than 500 miles on it.
Exterior and Interior
The C3 Corvette captures the essence of the Mako Shark II with its pointed front, long gill slits, and hips that are shaped like fins. Our subject car has reportedly been repainted during the restoration in the alluring Monza Red. Contrasting the red paint, the convertible soft top is finished in new black material. The car sits on a set of new OEM-style 15-inch wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich radial tires. Behind the shiny new wheels hide fully restored brakes with new parts installed. The newly replaced side exit exhaust with headers brings out the retro sporty spirit of this C3. Meanwhile, the interior of the C3 is kept simple, with the focus being the beautiful black-rimmed steering wheel, billet shift knob, and big round gauge cluster. The current owner also reports the installation of new glass parts, completing the restoration.
Engine
The C3 was offered with varying engine packages from the factory, but the owner of this 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible decided to opt for a 406ci crate V8 engine. This 6.7L V8 engine has less than 500 miles on it and power is sent to the rear wheels through a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, and together with the rebuilt suspension, this Corvette is sure to offer a gratifying driving experience.
The 1986 Chevrolet Corvette represents one of the defining early years of the C4 generation, when Chevrolet pushed the Corvette further into the modern performance era with digital instrumentation, aerodynamic styling, and Tuned Port Injection V8 power. Showing 99,665 miles, this example is finished in Black over a Red leather interior, a classic combination that suits the C4’s sharp, low-slung profile especially well. Its 5.7L L98 V8 is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, while features such as the removable targa roof panel, digital gauge cluster, Delco-Bose audio system, and power-adjustable sport seats give it the period-correct mix of technology and grand-touring comfort that made the C4 such a major step forward for the Corvette.
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.
Few American performance cars have the visual drama of an early C3 Corvette, and this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod adds a serious dose of big-block attitude to that already iconic shape. Showing approximately 58,617 miles, it wears Tuxedo Black over a Black interior and keeps the unmistakable low-slung proportions, removable T-tops, and cockpit-style cabin that made the third-generation Corvette such a standout. The real story, though, is under the hood, where a 467ci V8 built from a 454ci block brings the car well beyond factory specification. With the current owner reporting 609 HP and 597 LB-FT of torque on 91 octane, this is the kind of Corvette built for someone who wants classic C3 style with considerably more muscle behind the throttle.

This 1972 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that proves you do not need stripes, spoilers, or a big-block badge to have genuine muscle-era appeal. Showing approximately 53,285 miles, it pairs a 307ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic, giving it the easygoing, torque-rich feel of a traditional small-block Chevy cruiser. The custom orange finish gives the car plenty of presence, while Rally-style wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make the package feel especially usable. It is a clean, straightforward Nova built around the formula enthusiasts still appreciate today: V8 power, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and unmistakable early-1970s Chevrolet styling.
