Thank you for the continued bids. I’ve lowered The reserve significantly- but we’re not there yet. Plenty of time left for all those interested.

Good morning. Thanks to all for a great auction week. With a little over 5 hours remaining, please let me know if there are any additional questions. This car has all the options you’d want in a 73 Corvette. A built 454, power steering, power brakes, power windows, functioning factory AC, and side pipes. If we hit reserve, the new owner will be extremely pleased. I’ll keep everyone posted 2 hours before the end of auction if I decide to drop the reserve. Best of luck to all bidders.

@Marco311- door panels show as new- no cracking as well as the dash. Less than 500 miles ago, the clutch was redone, a new Holly Carb, front brakes, and Ac service. I don’t have paperwork on the transmission, but it shifts perfectly. The rear end doesn’t leak or whine- so not an issue. My mechanic and I have gone through the entire car. It’s ready to enjoy.

I know that the door panels were subject to cracking along the armrest. (I had a '974) What is the condition of the door panel(s)? Are they free from cracks etc. Other than the engine rebuild, has there been any other major work done, and if so approx. when? ie: front end, transmission, rear end? Thanks a bunch.

Good morning. Thanks again for the continued bids. @Dreamintoo@198, with the rebuild compression ratio is 10.5:1 and differential gear ratio is stock at 3.55:1. I’ll be checking in all week to answer all questions. For those who own a big block Stingray with side pipes, it’s the epitome of a classic muscle car. Hopefully this one finds a new owner.
