    When I was a kid my dad had a ‘71 Corvette with a blueprinted 454 that was an absolute beast. My mom drove it one time and got out of the car crying.

    I've had my '72 for almost 50 years. Try pulling the wiper door over-ride (vacuum) switch below the steering wheel, it should open the door. There's a headlight door over-ride too, also a vacuum switch. They're on either side of the large wiper motor over-ride (electric) switch. If that is engaged the wipers won't run. It and the wiper door over-ride are used to aid in changing wiper blades. The headlight door over-ride is used when changing headlamps.

And Nick, my brother, you did an awesome job as usual presenting this beauty. I only wish I was buying it! Great price and not too much of a project for this Disabled Vet to handle once my back surgery is done! Lol The new owner will love this ride! Keep finding these awesome C3s and keep up the great videography my brother! ✝️🇺🇸🫡

    Years ago my buddy has a 1969 427 and had the popping in the rear factory limited slip differential more noticeable after coming out of a turn. I changed the fluid for him which was filthy that contained the LS additive and the noise went away. I latter confirmed with a Corvette expert that was the issue as the clutch packs were sticking together and abruptly releasing in and out of turns.

    • @petercarey6883
      @petercarey6883 Рік тому +1

      NO, '71 was not the only year that the back window came out. They were removable from '68 through '72. It's a cool feature. Aside from T/T steering column this is a base model. This is obviously a 350/270 hp but it has the LT-1 fined valve covers or knock offs which are more pleasing and done by a lot of guys back in the day. There's no mention if the factory valve covers come with it and if the owner's manual comes with it as well as the original radio. Sinc the car is pulling; it will need all four corners aligned and probably new tires and brakes. He also should have tried the manual override for the wiper lid and headlight bucket. It's a decent driver, but it's overpriced. It will need a little more than TLC to make i a reliable driver. I couldn't tell from the underside shots if if has the spare tire tub and hopefully the spare tire. It would also be nice to know if it has the tank sticker and/or the window sticker. At the right price I'd be interested because it does need work and I haven't even touched upon the body paint or the fact it could probably use an Al Knock interior.

      No disrespect intended but I would disagree. I re-watched the driving portions of the video and couldn't hear the tell tail sounds of the M22 Rock Crusher transmission. Not saying you are wrong but a simple test would be to drop the fuel tank and look at the secondary "factory window sticker" affixed to the top of the fuel tank.

      Fair Enough, as my son likes to say. I think we are of the same mindset, not saying they're out to pump&dump Used Cars in the Classic Kurt Russel/Jack Warden style. It only makes sense that a buyer might reason that the asking price is fair, but only if the few minor mechanical issues were fixed.
