6.0-Powered 1970 Chevrolet Corvette 6-Speed

This 1970 Chevrolet Corvette has several upgrades including a 6.0-liter V8 with a performance cam backed by a rebuilt T-56 6-speed manual gearbox, custom wiring, electric headlight actuators, an aftermarket stereo, rebuilt power steering, and new brake rotors, calipers, and master cylinder. Its new black vinyl interior is equipped with digital gauges and smoked glass T-tops. Other features include American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels, tires in staggered 17- and 18-inch diameters, and a VBP monospring upgrade kit. Refinished in pearl blue with a black base over a 1969 front clip and an L88 hood, this Corvette is available now and comes with a clear New Mexico title in the seller's name.

The body is refinished in pearl blue with an onyx black base over a 1969 front clip with chrome Stingray gills and an L88-style big block hood. Other features include electric headlight actuators from a 1990s Pontiac Trans Am, chrome bumpers, smoked glass T-tops, and aftermarket bubble-style taillights. In addition, blue aftermarket underbody lighting has been installed. The seller reports cosmetic issues including a few chips in the paint and a scratch on one of the fenders.

A set of American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels are wrapped in low-profile tires. Stopping is handled by new rotors and calipers along with a new master cylinder.

The reportedly new cabin is furnished with black carpeting, a black vinyl dash, black door panels with manual window cranks, and black bucket seats separated by a center console. An aftermarket three-spoke steering wheel is connected to the steering column. According to the seller, the cabin needs a new console plate, which they are currently building. They have also ordered a new horn button.

An aftermarket stereo is installed and plays through a sound bar mounted in the rear compartment, while aftermarket digital gauges with readouts for the coolant temperature, oil temperature, fuel pressure, oil pressure, and voltage are located in the center of the dashboard.

The original engine has been replaced with a 6.0-liter V8 using an LQ4 block and aluminum heads, a performance cam, and 36-pound fuel injectors topped with black Corvette LS2 coil pack covers. An aftermarket air cleaner, a 90-degree intake pipe, and a Magnaflow dual exhaust system with catalytic converters manage airflow while a rebuilt T-56 6-speed manual helps send the engine's output to the road.

Updated components include replacement bearings for the driveline and hubs, a VBP fiberglass monospring suspension kit, and rebuilt power steering hardware. Additional photos of the underbody are in the picture carousel to the right.
