About This Car:
This 1971 Corvette LT1 Convertible has received ten NCRS Awards and two of them are the highest NCRS Awards that a corvette could ever win; the Chevrolet Bowtie Award and the Duntov Mark of Excellence Award. It was also awarded the NCRS Performance Verification Award, two Top Flight Awards, Special Interest Award and four Certificate of Appreciation NCRS Awards. The ten NCRS awards it has won all come with the car.  This car has proven itself at the highest levels with the National Corvette Restorers Society.  You are looking at a true time-capsule with impeccable pedigree and history.  The car is so original that it was even used to contribute to the Master Pad and Build document library, which helps with the teaching and understanding of engine/car originality. 

The 1971 model year is one of the best years to collect for the C3 corvettes due to the government emission regulations that severely limited the horsepower on the 1972 model year, as well as safety regulations that spelled the end of chrome front bumpers on a Corvette. The Steel Cities Gray exterior is a beautiful color on this C3 Corvette Convertible.  Loaded with great options such as LT1 330-HP Turbo-Fire 350 V8, M21 4-Spd Close-Ratio Transmission, Auxiliary Hardtop, Power Steering, Power Windows and much more make it the car to own.  Also included with the car are the Original Window Sticker, Original Car Invoice, Original Corvette Order Copy, Original New Car Vehicle Inspection Form, Owner’s Manual and the list goes on.

This car is coming out of one of the best collections in the world. It has always been stored indoors, trickle charged, maintained and detailed by professionals. The history on the car since new is known and it has always been well cared for. The Cylinder Case and Engine Pad have been certified original numbers-matching.  The Cylinder Case – Engine Pad Certification was completed by NCRS Judge Al Grenning on March 15, 2022. The Classic Car Affirmation Service verified the Full VIN 194671S116798; Casting Number 3970010; Casting Date C251; Assembly Date V0330CGZ; VIN Derivative C11S116798.  A fine example and true collector grade quality.  This car will be a great addition to any collection.
