The car is said to have been repainted in the factory Silver Pearl Metallic (Q) during previous ownership. Features include a black convertible soft top, cast rocker accents, concealed headlights, split chrome bumperettes, fender vents, 396 badges, reverse lamps, and dual exhaust outlets that exit through the rear valance. The hardtop is missing, and the seller reports a right side mirror and windshield post and hinge pillar weather stripping was installed during current ownership. There are paint chips and a rub mark on the decklid that are shown in the gallery.
The 15″ turbine wheels are fitted with three-ear knock-off hubs and are mounted with 205/75 BFGoodrich Silvertown redline tires. A full-size spare is mounted in the trunk well. Braking is handled by unassisted discs at all four corners. The calipers were reportedly rebuilt during previous ownership and a 1967-style dual-circuit master cylinder and adjustable rear radius strut rods were reportedly installed. The spare jack and handle are missing.
The cabin features bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl joined by a color-coordinated dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Equipment includes a vertically-mounted Delco AM/FM radio, Corvette-branded floor mats, a reverse lock-out shifter, a center-mounted electric clock, crank windows, and lap belts for both occupants. The door trim panels were reportedly replaced during current ownership, the shifter linkage configuration was changed to a shorter throw, and interior trim components were repainted in semi-gloss black.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and supplementary gauges. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 108 miles, approximately 750 of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown. The instrumentation is said to have been refurbished and the odometer was reset during current ownership.
The replacement 396ci V8 was reportedly overhauled and installed during previous ownership. Features include a Holley four-barrel carburetor, an aluminum intake manifold, a transistor ignition system, Accel ignition wires, long-tube headers, and a front-mounted electric radiator fan. Service since 2021 included replacing the thermostat and spark plugs, tuning the carburetor, adjusting engine timing, and repairing the vacuum advance system. An oil and coolant change was performed during current ownership.
The engine casting pad was machined and powertrain component stamps are shown in the gallery.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a close-ratio Muncie four-speed manual transmission and a Positraction rear differential with 3.56:1 gearing. The 2.5-inch dual exhaust system features Flowmaster mufflers.
