Time for me to pass my 73 coupe on to a new owner who can appreciate her and care for her. I am moving out of state and loosing my garage space. Car is currently being stored in Georgetown TX.
The car: 1973 coupe, LS4 454, 4-speed, A/C, PS, PB, PW. Three owner car with 50k miles. 73 only Blue-Green color with deluxe black leather interior. I have the build sheet but it is in rough shape.
Car was sold new in Tucson AZ, then went to San Diego CA, then to me in Austin TX. It does not know what rust or salty roads are. To be honest, there is rust in the exhaust system.
Price: $22,500.00.

It is a very original car but by no means perfect. Second owner changed the color to silver before putting it back to the correct green. Front bumper is fiberglass rather than urethane. Has composite mono leaf rear spring with adjustable strut rods. I drove car, including trip from TX to Bloomington Gold, but when it hit 50k miles I parked it as I did not want to put more miles on it. Big mistake. Just spent, last month, over $3000 getting it drivable and safe for the road (brakes, tires, tune, etc). Car has a paint blemish on rear deck which was there when I got the car (shown in the pictures).
Car has a Jenson stereo installed but I have an original stereo from a 73, that is weak on one channel, that will go with car. It also has an after market leather steering wheel installed and I have an original wheel that will go with it. Also have several boxes or misc 73 parts collected over the years that goes with the car.
I do have the emission parts in a box, not on car. Someone had used a bolt cutter to get the air tubes off of one side so I have a new set if air tubes for the car.
Please PM me through the Forum or email, tom73vette at sub global dot net, if you have questions. Currently I am not close to the cars location so showing may be difficult. But if you are a serious buyer I will make it work. Because of this, please no tire kickers.
