Despite a price increase, the 1973 Corvette experienced strong sales, surpassing the previous year’s figures, with Chevrolet producing and shipping 30,464 units. The coupe variant emerged as the preferred choice, with 25,521 units sold, while the convertible accounted for 4,943 units.
Despite the higher price tag, the coupe was available for $5,561, while the convertible was priced slightly lower at $5,398. An original, unaltered 1973 Chevrolet Corvette has recently surfaced on eBay, presenting a nearly flawless package.
While the vehicle appears in excellent condition, interested buyers are advised to conduct a thorough inspection or view the Corvette in person to verify its condition.
The lack of detailed information, including engine specifics and potential rebuilds, may deter some buyers. However, the Corvette’s originality and completeness remain appealing factors.
Of the Corvettes produced that year, 5,710 units were equipped with the 350 engine rated at 250 horsepower. While the base L48 configuration may not offer the highest performance, a restoration project could include upgrading to a more powerful engine option, such as the 348.
Listed at $18,000, this Corvette’s selling price aligns with its condition. Located in Tacoma, Washington, interested buyers can negotiate with the seller using the Make Offer option. With 14 individuals already monitoring the listing, prospective buyers are encouraged to act swiftly, as the auction is set to conclude in 28 days.
