ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK
Engine Bay
The engine bay, much like the rest of the car, remains in fantastic original condition. Painted surfaces show a bit of age and patina in an exact manner you would expect from a survivor class car. The valve covers have been repainted in their correct color and the radiator has been replaced. There is an aftermarket expansion tank located on the passenger side of the engine bay. Correct clamps, hoses, brackets, and wiring were used throughout the engine bay to help with the original nature of the vehicle. Brightwork such as the air cleaner cover remains in great shape with good shine and original looking stickers in place. Original stickers are present in their correct locations.
Trunk Area
The “trunk area” located behind the seats, is in good original condition as well with some fading on the carpets but otherwise clean and tidy. Lifting the battery box lid reveals correct and original stickers still in place. The top, which stows neatly into this space, appears to have the original framework but has had the material replaced at some point.
Underside
The underside of the car appears exactly as expected with a well-kept survivor quality example such as this. Although some minor road dirt and surface corrosion have accumulated in some areas, the underside appears solid and dry. The exhaust has been replaced but the original tips were kept and put back on. There are no signs of mechanical issues present upon inspecting the underside.
MECHANICALS
Engine
This C3 Corvette has been well maintained over the last 21 years of its ownership and it shows in the strong running nature of the engine. The 350 c.i. V-8 barks to life with ease and settles into a smooth and consistent idle. It makes excellent power and has no flat spots or stumbles upon acceleration.
Transmission
The optional 4-speed transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and holds power throughout the rev range. The clutch take-up is smooth and consistent with good positive feedback.
