Seven Hills Motorcars is glad to offer this gorgeous 1971 Corvette in nice condition with power steering. power brakes. automatic transmission. and T-tops with the pop-out rear window. This car looks great. runs great. and is a nice driver quality car overall. It is finished in the handsome and desirable color combination of Brands Hatch Green (983) over Saddle (420) interior. This is the factory correct color scheme as verified on the trim tag pictured below. While this Corvette is not completely "numbers matching. quot; it does have a 3970014 engine block. which was used in some 1972 Corvettes according to Alan a Colvin's book Corvette by the Numbers. We have this car priced to sell and are offering an excellent opportunity to own a desirable Corvette at an unbeatable value. One could easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price with minimal work and effort. It gets a ton of attention going down the road and turns heads everywhere it goes. The clear Ohio title pictured below shows that Seven Hills Motorcars is the owner of this Corvette and that the mileage is original and "Actual" at around 72. 00. Please peruse all of the photos. video. and information below to get a true sense of this Corvette.

As a side note. this Corvette is not a dealer auction vehicle.   We hand pick each car after careful inspection.   Our Corvettes come from owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did.   We invite and encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car inspected.   Please take the time to scrutinize each picture.   We photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel confident about your purchase.   If you have a question about the Corvette. just give us a call.

   

condition    

Exterior

The Brands Hatch Green exterior is in nice driver condition. As one can see in the photos the finish has fine gloss. deep shine. and smooth finish. The wheels are in excellent condition with no curb rash on the beauty rings. The tire have about 60% tread left. There are no major blemishes that have been intentionally excluded from the photos. There are some small imperfections around the car that were too faint to show up in photos. but nothing that is really noticeable from about five or ten feet away. The chrome bumpers and other bight work on the car show well overall with no major rust or pitting.

Window Date Codes

Driver: VT - "V" denotes December and "T" denotes 1970 meaning the driver's side window was made in December of 1970.

Passenger: UT - "U" denotes July and "T" denotes 1970 meaning the passenger's side window was made in July of 1970.

Rear: AT - "A" denotes September and "T" denotes 1970 meaning the rear window was made in Septmebr of 1970.

Please note that "Astro Ventilation" side glass and even the pop-out rear window on this Corvette are date coded and original as each piece predates the car's body build date of February 18. 1971 (G18). Original glass is a good indication that this car has had no major accident history and never sustained significant damage.

 

Interior

 

The saddle interior of the Corvette looks terrific. The seats are in excellent shape and look in person just as they do in the photos with no rips. splits. or excessive wear. They are not worn in typical area where the driver gets in and out. The carpet is also in good condition with no holes or major stains. This included the rear carpet which is often neglected. There is a small amount of wear on the carpet directly behind the driver's seat. which is visible in the photos. The dash and console are not faded. but there is some cracking on the right speaker grill. The door panels have no cracks. splits. or wear to the arm pads. but they do look wavy. This car has not been smoked in; there are no burn marks and no aroma of cigarettes whatsoever. The T-top bags are also included with the car.

 

Mechanical

This car is in seems to be in decent mechanical condition. It starts right away every time. idles okay. and runs well. The car shifts well throughout the power band. The brakes are responsive. Also. the engine compartment is clean and nicely detailed as one can see in the photos. As with many carbureted cars. it is a bit cold blooded. There is no notable blue smoke when starting or driving the car. All the exterior lights and turn signals work as one can see in the video. All of the gauges work with obvious exception of the clock. The vacuum for the headlights worked with we first purchased the car. but would not operate properly when we shot the video. With the very cold and inclement weather we have experienced recently we have been unable to take the car out on the open road. We drove it around our neighborhood when we first purchased this car and it drove okay. but have not had a chance to take it on the highway. There are some items on the car that do not work such as the wiper door and blower for the heater. The car would benefit from a tune up and some overall maintenance. it also has a sporadic tic from the right side. As with most 1968-71 Corvettes the fiber optic light monitoring system is not totally functional. None of these items immediately affect drivability and most sellers would not even disclose such details. This Corvette has plenty of power and is very fast. Not enough can be said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car. especially with the T-tops out on a beautiful day.

A note on the fiber optic light monitoring system. We consistently receive many questions about the purpose of this system; exactly what it is and what it does. The sole and main idea behind the fiber optic light monitoring system is to simply confirm that all of the exterior lights. headlights. indicators. tail lights. etc. . are working and to make the driver aware of a a burned out bulb. Each lamp on the outside of the car has an actual fiber optic cable the runs to an indicator on the center console. There are nine small indicators on the console and each has its own finer optic cable. When the bulb goes on the light travels through the fiber optic cable and illuminates the corresponding indicator on the console. If someone does not remember to plug the cable end into the lamp housing. does any work to the center console. or if there is a break in a connection or anywhere along the cable. that indicator no longer works. As one can image. over time this is very common.

Overall Condition

 

Overall. this 1971 Corvette is in nice driver condition. It is a great value and we have priced it to sell. In my opinion and based on our experience the "Chrome Bumper" cars from 1968-1972 are the most collectible in the entire Corvette market right now. The value of these cars has gone up exponentially in recent years. They are all solid investments for a collector. The Ohio title indicates the low mileage as "Actual" and the previous owner stated the mileage was original. One could easily enjoy this vehicle for several years and sell it for more than the purchase price with minimal effort.

 

Thank you for looking and please email or call with any questions.
