Car history: |
1) For the 1970 model year, Chevrolet introduced their ultimate iteration of the smallblock V8. Known as the LT-1, this new high-performance engine was available in the Corvette, Camaro Z/28 (replacing the high-revving 302) as well as in the Nova - though only as a COPO special order. The new high-compression, 350 cubic inch unit was thoroughly reworked with an 11.0:1 compression ratio, solid lifters, high performance camshaft, a big Holley 780 CFM carburetor, and new intake and exhaust manifolds. The engine produced a very heady 370 horsepower in the Corvette, making it the ideal choice for drivers who wanted to get the most out of their Corvette's handling. The LT-1 was so good that it formed the basis for the ultra-rare and desirable 1970 ZR1 road-race package. Much lighter than the big block 454 and nearly as powerful, the LT-1 is considered one of the greatest iterations of the 350 cubic inch small-block V8. Chevrolet offered the LT-1 option from 1970-1972, though with each subsequent model year getting a drop in compression and horsepower, thereby making the 1970 models the most desirable of the breed. By 1970 a few minor refinements were made to the C3's Mako Shark-inspired styling. Most notable were the egg-crate side grilles that mirrored that of the front grille. The fenders were flared slightly to prevent rock chips and the seats reworked for greater comfort. The tweaked looks make for one of the most cohesive and attractive of all the C3 Vettes. A labor strike that had begun in 1969 made for a relatively low production of 17,316 1970 Corvettes. Of that total, 6,648 were convertibles and it is believed that only 400 of those were fitted with the LT-1 option. BiN $69,900 'Ended) on March 23 and 30, 2017. |
