Equipment
327/340hp L76, 4-speed, centerlock wheels, store brand tires, leather, Vintage Air, power windows, AM/FM radio, aluminum radiator, disc brakes.
Condition
Matching numbers California car. Good paint with a crack on the right front fender and two small chips on the right door. Some chips on the edge of the driver’s door as well. Lovely, mostly original interior with great leather that shows only mild wear on the outer bolster. Clean and honest with a few additions that are technically incorrect but do make the car more usable and enjoyable.
Market commentary
This would be an appropriate result for a Split Window Corvette restored to and maintained in NCRS standards and it reflects on the attitudes of the Mecum bidders, and on their intended purpose for this thoughtfully modified example that it brought this much. It’s not quite a Resto-Mod, but it is getting close and the Mecum bidders paid well for its utility and comfort.
