Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Side exhaust, Rally wheels with hubcaps and trim rings, red line tires, wood grain steering wheel, AM/FM radio.

Condition

Oil misted engine compartment and chassis but clean and detailed up top. Good upholstery and top. Windshied header chrome is scuffed. Clean, orderly underbody. A quality car, but getting a little old and shopworn.

Market commentary

Cataloged as a 435hp but badged and numbered as an hydraulic lifter 400 hp. It's been looking for a home for a long time, starting at Auburn Fall last August at $97,500, then Mecum Chicago in October at $92,500 and Kissimmee in January at $95,000. Two of those three times (as well as here) it's been represented as a 435hp car, a claim that begs understanding when the engine is clearly marked and stamped as a JC-code 400hp. Let's just say it brought a reasonable price today for what it is, a very pretty Corvette roadster with three deuces on its Big Block motor.
