This car beats the Mustang in style and performance. If I can go on, it can also beat the charger also. And just for the fun of it, it can beat it's self in a race, which would be a tie. Darn it, the Corvette C3 is cool, stylish, fun, fast, & awsome.
@Mig25foxhound I don't know if I could sell that car if I owned it but I was shopping for a 70's Vette and ended up buying an 85 because the handling was a century ahead of the C3 cars. I love the one I have now but would I trade it in for maybe a 200? ZO6.... yeah, probably.
I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Porsche vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carbs and tank clean and rustfree!
oh no. I totally disagree. Yes, this is an absolutely beautiful, sexy car. But whenever you have a vette, The windows HAVE to be tinted. Having the window's tinted gives it that pure, sexy look.
Im embarrassed to ask this but I cant seem to find an answer anywhere. What is the difference between a 76 stingray and 76 stingray L48? What does the L48 mean?
The 76 model included two engine options. The L48 was the standard/base engine and produced 180hp. Buyers could opt for the L82 which was rated at 120 hp. Both are 350 cubic inches.
When you see a Corvette listed as
1976-L48 or 1976-L82 you will now understand the displacement under the hood.
That is not very much power for 350CI, it seems. I mean, considering that a Challenger with 340 four-bbl made 275 in 1970, I imagine these 350s you're talking about are way, WAY de-tuned (for the classic mid-70s emissions and insurance reasons, probably). Am I wrong?
i think there is a red one of these in front of a little garage in my town, and i think it is for sale. any help about what i should look for/what i should pay will be greatly appreciated. i am in high school so i dont have alot of cash. thanks for any help!
OMG!!! that car is BEAUTIFUL!!! I want to own one just like this someday. with the rack on the back and the big block chevy and body style....this car is just immaculate
Wow, a Washington State Corvette!!! I bought my first Corvette in Spokane back in 1973....it was a Silver Metalflake '65 Stingray Convertible with a 327 / 4 speed. (It came from Tulsa and was part of the "Tusla Vette Set") I've had 7 more since then and currently own 2 now. Once you've had one, you can't get them out of your blood. During the few time periods I didn't have one, I actually DREAMED ABOUT DRIVING THEM (at night), missing them!!! Only Vette owners know what I'm talking about!
about 2 miles away from my house one of my neighbors has a old stingray and i want to see how much they want for it. it has been there since i was 10 or younger im about to turn 20
Its just like the one I bought when I was 17 it was a LS5 with a M20 wide ratio that I changed to a M22 close ratio with 3.08 rear gears. It too was the Mulsane Blue with the Bright Blue interior. Mine hauled azzzz like that.
friend had a 71 .I got to drive it once .....then he ruined it with a 454 tunnel ram and steep gears,then put a 350 back in it and got it repoed.....just found it again after 20 years.......
To all you import guys...where were all your Hondas,Nissans, Toyotas back in the days this car was new?? Nowhere to be found...respect the fact that the Corvette has been around longer than most sports cars we know and love nowadays...even the 911 was a nobody back then,not to mention the Viper and a few Lambos and Ferraris....whether you like them or not,honor it for what it's been and still is...a great sports car..and they can still hold their own with the world's best!!
Oh the jap cars were around but just didn't last that long. Thats why you never see an old jap car. Their quality was terrible and they were slow and undesirable. Guess GM has been making quality for a long time and made cars back then that lasted.
A lot of these "older" GM cars and such are collectable, and were a lot more valuable then the "jap" cars back in the day. Which would you take care of, a beater civic to drive around, or a sports car (corvette). I actually do see old "jap" cars, and a friend of mine just completed a 1976 civic restoration. Dont think I dont like american muscle though, check out my vid in my profile.
Ahh the 70 Vet, bought one brand spanking new in 1970 cost me $7200. Silver grey, 350-350 went into hock up to my ears to get it but did i have fun with it for 6 years. Worth every penny I paid for it wish I still had it.
ive just put a 1970 454 LS5 into a roll-caged, sub-framed, 1969 Pontiac Acadian.
this is my 1st real muscle car.
its got a fully forged steel rotating assembly.
Headman headers (no exhuast yet) is now on electric fuel pump and is HEI electronic ignition. a top end rebiuld about 3600 K ago with a mildly lumpy cam. the transmissions bellhousing says " C 4 * " i dont know what it is. anyone know what that is? and what my car may really be like?
It's hard for me to believe but has anyone out there read the article in Hemmings Muscle Machines that feature a 1972 Dodge Polara CHP car and this is a big heavy car with a 440 727 torque Flite trans with the performance as follows:
0-60 6,7 seconds
1/4 mile 15.2 sec. at 92 mph
top speed 140
They said this car could hang with any car of the day and was made to not just hit 140mph but to maintain that speed.
Dont forget that back in the days, these cars had a VERY bad traction due to their skinny bias-ply tires! .. you could easily lose 2-3 seconds while burning the rubbers while shiftig into gears! .. I have a stock LS5 454 corvette and I can easily hit 60 MPH in 5 seconds.
Only one documented report was from Road & Track using an AC, Automatic 3.08 geared car. Not your optimum set up. and the car Top out at 145MPH!! Not too bad
Similar test of 1972 and 1973 LS4's with the much lower compression 8.5 were running high 13's and 5.6 secs with better gearing and 4sp. A 1970 454 LS5 is a rattler and would have decimated it's brethren and able to take all comers! ;)
Awesome car, very hard to beat a 70 454 LS5 in a Vette. Even the LS6 Chevelle would have a tough time against this machine as it carry approx 300-400 more weght. Do another vid!! Don't see too many of these anymore
It is so SILLY that in 1970 they put the LS-6 engine in the Chevelle, and not the Corvette ! Chevy, shame on you !! I dislike the fact that a Chevelle is faster than Corvettes. They put the LS-6 engine in the 1971 Corvette, but tamed and detuned to only 425hp. There SHOULD have been a 1970 LS-6 Corvette ! The 1970 LS-7 should have also been produced. The Corvette was cheated in 1970. Chevy, you should be ashamed !!
Wow dude calm down. Which top model was faster? Vette. And GM will always make sure that the Vette will always be faster than internal competition - take for instance the Camaro today, well, the Z06 rocks it.
Oh yeah, the engineers at Corvette built the first small block 427, which is the Z06 of today, nice!!!
i had one just like it 4 years ago brought her back from troronto to halifax nova scotia, 1800 road milers, made the trip in 13 1/2 hours, including the 5 hour ferry ride (cops couldent ticket what they couldent see!)
nice car mate i am so jealous they are a nice car but one of my favorites is the 1969 shelby mustang you cant really compare much but yer i love the 1970 stingray. how much did he pay fothe car?
beautiful car it's absolutely amazing. take a top view of a c3 vette and lay a chick on her back they look the same. curvy and sexy. (they also cost a fortune).
in 1970, the 427 was bore and stroked to 454ci. and called the LS5, stock hp was 390 and 450 footpounds of torque. the ls6 in that year was rated much higher, but did a trap speed of 106 mph. suggesting that its more like 370 hp.
RcColanator, ever gone away for the weekend in a 70 Vette? Try it, then you will understand the luggage rack. There aint room for squat inside a 70 Vette! I have a shot of the inside luggage area in my video "Dave's 540 Camaro & Corvette".
540merlin, hah, no, unfortunately I cannot yet say that I have tried that yet. That day is fast approaching though! I love your cars, man, you're living the dream.
I disagree. I have a 77 vette without racks and I have a sound system in the back. When I put the t-tops away I have to rearrange everything cause they barely fit...it sucks!!!.
I can't get enough of this vid !! That is beautiful. I have a '72 vette and a '69 vette. I believe firmly that the most beautiful and desirable vettes were from '69 to '72 :)
i love classic muscle 1970 stingray = greatest driving machine ever

My favorite incarnation of the Stingray: a 454 big block.

uhh no Kud4u
in 1970, the 427 was bore and stroked to 454ci. and called the LS5, stock hp was 390 and 450 footpounds of torque. the ls6 in that year was rated much higher, but did a trap speed of 106 mph. suggesting that its more like 370 hp.

That year the LS6 wasn't in the Corvette, it was only available in the Chevelle. 1971 Corvette got the LS6.

I really don't understand those luggage racks. They ruin the look and who buys a Corvette to haul shit around in anyway?
Awesome car anyway, I'm still jealous.

RcColanator, ever gone away for the weekend in a 70 Vette? Try it, then you will understand the luggage rack. There aint room for squat inside a 70 Vette! I have a shot of the inside luggage area in my video "Dave's 540 Camaro & Corvette".

540merlin, hah, no, unfortunately I cannot yet say that I have tried that yet. That day is fast approaching though! I love your cars, man, you're living the dream.

I think it makes it look like some kind of unusual utilitarian spoiler. I like it for some reason.
jakeharvey 3 years ago
I disagree. I have a 77 vette without racks and I have a sound system in the back. When I put the t-tops away I have to rearrange everything cause they barely fit...it sucks!!!.

I can't get enough of this vid !! That is beautiful. I have a '72 vette and a '69 vette. I believe firmly that the most beautiful and desirable vettes were from '69 to '72 :)

the style of the c3 corvette is well before its time,and its the only muscle car that actually got better looking after the emission's law!
I think that the c3 is he most beautiful car ever (and so was the XKE)

i should know this but i dont..... did 70 vettes come with the ls6 or just the ls5? either way great power for such a small car
1970chevellels6 3 years ago
1970 vettes came with only the LS5 engine for the big block. The LS6 was only available in one year, in 1971 along with the LS5.

Then there is the ultra rare DL1 700hp 540CID. Not many people know about that engine option.
