1993 Chevrolet Corvette

1993 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible With 40 years of heritage and refinement behind it, the 1993 Corvette was the classic American two seater. Corvette's 5.7 Liter LT1 V8: this 300 HP V8 combines smooth in city performance and ferocious capability at high RPM, with either the 4-speed automatic or the 6-speed manual, this is driving the way it is meant to be. Technology in the 1993 Corvette also includes sophisticated fully independent suspension with precision crafted aluminum componentry, an all disc four wheel antilock brake system, and a traction control system that helps Corvette utilize all available traction by regulating wheel spin. Corvettemuseum.org  For consignment, a 1993 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible with a title verified 43,332 actual miles. This red on red car features a desirable accessory hard top but also has a soft top for on the fly top dropping action.  Exterior Torch Red, colloquially known as Arrest Me Red in some circles, baths this American sports car with the two stage quality it deserves. And while you may be a familiar with the facelifted C4 Corvette, let's talk about some unique features here including the hard top, which makes the car coupe-like in the same vein as the C5 Z06 would favor, retaining a decklid by eliminating the long, sloping rear window. Also on this car are 17-inch GS style wheels which would adorn the special edition '96 C4's and look great with the red! (The original saw blades come with the car.) They're wearing staggered size tires with an early 2021 date code. Finally, there's a spoiler on back which would be subtle if not for its contrasting black color, and it gives the car a degree of sportiness lacking in mere mortal C4's. An area of crazing is the only imperfection we find on the outside.  Interior Spectacular red leather for the buckets which have extensive bolstering to keep you in the seat when negotiating a tight curve. The driver's seat has a few cracks and wear off of the red at the entry side and each seat has a 40th anniversary badge embroidered in.  The center console houses storage, seat controls, and the automatic shifter, all in great shape with some typical scratches on the faceplate. Analog gauges arch towards a center digital readout which like all instrument lights, illuminate in orange. The center stack favors the driver and includes a push button AC panel and AM/FM/Cassette radio. Bright red carpet covers the floors and door panels, which have a black mid panels. A soft black headliner covers the underside of the hardtop cleanly.  Drivetrain Presenting cleanly is the venerable 5.7 liter LT1 powerplant, fuel injected and rated at 300 horsepower. It's mated to GM's 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the Positraction rear axle with 2.59 gears.   Undercarriage Some minor oxidation and some residual oil are the only things that detract from a very clean underside. Here lives the dual exhaust system that flows through the stock style mufflers, then exits via rectangular polished tips. Four wheel power disc brakes are on board and suspension includes single fiberglass composite mono leaf spring with unequal length aluminum control arms and stabilizer bar in front and fully independent 5 link system with fiberglass single leaf spring, aluminum upper/lower trailing links and a strut tierod assembly on back. Drive-Ability We surround ourselves with red surfaces and bring the LT1 to life, once again finding we're impressed with the pleasant exhaust note, the rip roaring acceleration, and the train on rails type handling. Everything works on this car and as they say, this is about as much fun as you can have and still have your clothes on!
