Chevrolet’s C3 third-generation Corvette marked a radical styling departure for America’s favorite sports car, with muscular and bulbous styling, plus a new interior. However, it remained largely the same as the C2 second generation beneath the skin. While later model year C3s were strangled by the emissions regulations that came into the fore, earlier examples were spared this fate, as this 1970 Chevrolet Corvette LS5 Coupe is blessed. The seller says that this car has minor upgrades here and there.
Exterior and Interior
The iconic design of the C3 is beautifully showcased by this 1970 Chevrolet Corvette LS5 Coupe in all its gold colored glory, which is reported to be an original color. Pop-up headlamps sporting twin circular lights per side add to its allure, as do the period-correct alloy wheels wearing BFGoodrich white-lettered tires. The bodywork of this car appears to be largely in great condition, with the chromed side exhausts and mirrors gleaming, and the necessary Stingray badging present and correct. Let’s not forget that this car is a T-Top which means you can pop the two tops and enjoy open-topped motoring at will. The interior of this 1970 Chevrolet Corvette LS5 Coupe is in black, and it’s reported that the previous owner had the interior completely re-done. A modern CD/Radio head unit has been installed, with aftermarket speakers in the rear luggage area, pointing at the two seats for driver and passenger. Comprehensive instrumentation includes a 160mph speedometer and tachometer that stretches to 7,000rpm with redline set at 6,000rpm. Auxiliary gauges live in the center console. A white ball-tipped gear shifter completes the interior.
Engine
The C3 generation could be had with a variety of motors ranging from 305ci to 454ci, and this 1970 Chevrolet Corvette LS5 Coupe packs the largest of them all, the 454ci (7.5L) LS5 V8. This engine was conservatively rated at 370hp from the factory, but independent testing at the time had them breaking 400hp. This car is said to sport a numbers-matching engine and factory four-speed manual transmission. The seller also reports that the carb is new. Power steering and disc brakes on all wheels ensure that handling and stopping are decent.
The third-generation Chevrolet Corvette remains one of the most recognizable American sports cars ever produced, with its dramatic curves, long hood, and unmistakable Stingray styling. Introduced in 1968, the C3 generation became an icon of American performance, and 1975 marked the final year of Corvette convertible production until the body style returned in 1986. This 1975 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible Restomod takes that classic foundation in a decidedly more aggressive direction, combining vintage Corvette character with modern V8 power and extensive custom styling. Showing just 54 miles, this example features a 6.0L LS2 V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, along with a custom widebody exterior finished in vibrant Yellow. Its aftermarket front fascia, sculpted hood, flared fenders, and 16-inch black Fuchs wheels give it a distinctive road presence, while the Black interior incorporates a Dakota Digital gauge system, vintage-style Corvette radio, and aftermarket steering wheel. With its combination of classic C3 styling, contemporary LS power, and extensive custom modifications, this Corvette offers an exciting interpretation of an American performance legend.
The eighth-generation Chevrolet Corvette marked a turning point in American performance engineering, and the Z06 takes that evolution to extraordinary heights. Drawing inspiration from Chevrolet's motorsports heritage, the C8 Z06 combines a mid-engine layout with one of the most remarkable naturally aspirated V8 engines ever produced. At its heart is a 5.5L LT6 flat-plane crank V8 generating 670 horsepower and revving to an astonishing 8,600 RPM. This 2024 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe 2LZ is finished in Black over a Jet Black leather interior, creating an aggressive yet understated appearance. Equipped with the desirable 2LZ equipment group, Magnetic Selective Ride Control 4.0, an adjustable front lift system with memory, and black exhaust tips, this example combines track-inspired performance with everyday luxury. Showing just 4,200 miles, this Z06 offers an exceptional blend of exotic engineering, advanced technology, and unmistakable Corvette character.
The C3 Corvette is one of the most recognizable shapes in American performance history, and the later L82 cars added a stronger performance edge to the dramatic “shark” styling. This 1979 Chevrolet Corvette L82 Coupe shows just 11,856 miles and is finished in Black over a reupholstered Red leather interior. Its enthusiast appeal comes from the 350ci L82 V8, 4-speed manual transmission, removable T-top roof panels, full auxiliary gauge package, and classic rear-wheel-drive layout. With its low indicated mileage, manual gearbox, and reupholstered cabin, this Corvette offers the kind of analog V8 driving experience that defines the C3 generation.
The Chevrolet Chevelle became one of America's most recognizable nameplates during the 1960s, offering everything from practical family transportation to serious V8 performance. Introduced as Chevrolet's answer to the growing intermediate-size market, the Chevelle quickly established itself as a favorite among American motorists, with the Malibu serving as its more upscale and stylish offering. The 1966 model year brought a significant redesign, introducing the sweeping body lines, sculpted rear quarters, and distinctive styling that helped define the Chevelle's second generation. This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Convertible captures that era beautifully, finished in classic Tropic Turquoise with a matching Turquoise interior and contrasting White convertible soft top. Under the hood sits a 283ci V8 paired with a three-speed column-shift manual transmission, an increasingly uncommon configuration affectionately known as the "three-on-the-tree." With power steering, power brakes, and factory-style appointments, this Malibu offers a traditional American motoring experience. Showing approximately 34,122 miles, this turquoise convertible is an appealing choice for enthusiasts who appreciate the simplicity, character, and open-air enjoyment of a classic Chevrolet.
The Chevrolet Nova earned its place among America's most celebrated muscle cars by combining a lightweight, compact body with the performance potential of Chevrolet's small-block V8 engines. By 1970, the third-generation Nova had established itself as a formidable competitor in the muscle car market, offering straightforward styling and impressive performance without the larger dimensions of a Chevelle or Impala. This 1970 Chevrolet Nova Coupe builds on that heritage with a 350ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, delivering the classic rear-wheel-drive muscle car experience. Showing just 7,739 miles, this example is finished in Shadow Gray Metallic over a reupholstered Black interior. Its SS badging, American Racing chrome five-spoke wheels, and Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires give it a distinctly vintage muscle car appearance, while an aftermarket sound system and additional instrumentation introduce a few modern conveniences. With its understated metallic finish, traditional small-block V8 power, and timeless Nova styling, this Chevrolet offers an appealing combination of classic American performance and enthusiast-oriented upgrades.
