My X has an older friend to share garage with!
 

Have been looking for several months now and finally brought one home about a month ago to share the garage with the X5. I love the X and its civility and usefullness, but there is really nothing like raw american horse power and two seats!!!

1970 Corvette convertible. Numbers match, 4 speed, 350/300 h.p.

That's not just a Vette- it's a Stingray!

Dude- you know how many cool things are out on the aftermarket for that thing? Big disc-brake kits, suspension upgrades, even a fuel-injection conversion kit.

Nice looking car, one of my all-time faves and possibly the world's greatest engine.

Nice car! Any pics of the interior?

It's well in order and restored so I'm going to go the original route I think. Toying with the idea of having the engine re-built for an extra 50 HP or so, but keeping stock parts...

I plan on taking lots of pics in the next couple of weeks as it warms up here in the north east. Maybe even some with the X5 and the vette together. I'll include some interior pics too.

Just Beautiful. Congrats.
I miss my '71 every day of my life and will be getting another, no doubt about it. If you decide to have some fun and stay "OEM" perhaps build the motor to LT1 spec (370hp) but substitute the newer grind hydraulic cam so it is much more streetable for a daily driver. Congrats again. That is a true classic and way cooler than any new $100K+ car.

It sure does turn heads.....surprisingly enough it's a HUGE hit with kids! The corvette wave is pretty cool too.

thanks for the compliments guys! Hopefully will have some pics of the X and the vette together to post...

Love those old sting rays!
