Corvettes on eBay: Barn-Find 1973 Corvette with 31,570 Original Miles


There are some folks who prefer the look of a 1973 Corvette because it offers the best of both worlds.

Unlike the 1972, it has a urethane bumper on the front.

Unlike the 1974, it still has a chrome bumper on the back.

Well, if you like the eclectic style of the ’73, then this might be just the car for you.

Up for sale right now is a 1973 convertible that was just pulled out of a Wisconsin barn a few days ago, showing just 31,750 miles on the odometer.

The seller says the car is a one-owner, purchased in early 1974 as a leftover, and he believes the mileage is accurate.

While the car doesn’t look very nice cosmetically, the seller notes that it’s “all there” and would be “a very good car to fix and drive or do a total restore.”

The body is in good shape, he says, other than needing a few minor repairs, as well as the standard new nose. It always did bother me that the bumpers didn’t match up with the rest of the car due to being made out of a different material, but this one could be replaced with a fiberglass unit that paints up well.

The frame is described as very solid with only some surface rust and no rot. It’ll need a new leaf spring in the back, and you’ll need new exhaust pipes. The interior looks okay, the seller says, but will need work along with the convertible top.

“I don’t think it would take much to make the car run,” he says of the L82-equipped Corvette. “It was parked and just forgot about until now. All in all a very good project either way.” You can “Buy It Now” for $8,500 or place your bid.
