Friday’s Featured Corvette for Sale: 1975 Corvette Greenwood SportWagon

The story behind the SportWagon Corvette goes that a drummer commissioned the first wagon concept because he needed the cargo room to haul his drums to various gigs. Looking to make a good design better, the Greenwoods greatly improved upon the concept and an earlier kit designed by Chuck Miller by making the SportWagon much more aerodynamic and aesthetically pleasing, as well as giving the SportWagon the much needed rear hatch to allow access to the rear of the Corvette. After a mockup was sent to SEMA where it became an instant hit, John Greenwood then farmed out actual production through kits from American Custom Industries and Ecklers.

It’s estimated that between 15 and 24 SportsWagons were produced from the kits sold by ACI and Ecklers, and those kits contained several cues that show it was an official Greenwood SportWagon kit. The Greenwood logo was etched into the rear glass and an emblem was tastefully added to the B-pillar located behind driver and passenger windows.

This 1975 Corvette SportWagon is being offered from Coffee’s Corvette and Classics in Old Forge, PA. Painted in Classic White with a Black interior and Black Spoiler, this SportWagon features those Greenwood design cues mentioned above. This Corvette is powered with a stock L48 350 cubic inch V8 coupled to an automatic transmission and is listed for $29,900. A head turner anywhere, this SportWagon is ready for the weekend car show or a trip to Home Depot. Additional details and Contact information can be found at VetteFinders.com
