Which engine options do you prefer? (where applicable)
We do have the 1970 convertible with hardtop, but there are more third generation Corvettes worth collecting:
1969 Coupe 427 ZL1
1978 Indiana 500 + the 25th Anniversary Edition.
1982 Collector Edition
Couple of corrections
The 454 was designated LS-4 and was the replacement for the 72 and earlier LS-5 454. It first appeared in 1973 (at 280 hp). It had dropped to 270 hp for 1974.
The Turbo-Hydramatic was the 3 speed automatic available in 1974, the 4 speed automatic 700-R4 didn’t show up until 1982.
More corrections a manual is also available which should be chosen since automatics were awful back then but I would go for the Corvette ZL1 and ZR2 first before I go for the facelift
Note: The 427 engine has different horsepower ratings: 390 and 400, with torque remaining unchanged; a 3-speed automatic is offered as an option, but not for the 435-horsepower models
0-60: 7.8 seconds (this is an estimated time achieved with the automatic; times for the manual are slightly faster, likely in the high-6 to low-7’s)
Top speed: 125+ mph (estimated)
Note: An “L-48” version of the 350 engine is standard, producing 185 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque in the process
Note #2: Over 6500 units of the Corvette Pace Car were made in 1978 to celebrate the car’s 25th anniversary at the time; most of these cars were equipped with the L-82, while the L-48 was extremely rare
0-60: Between the high-7 and mid-8-second range, which varied on the transmission choice
Top speed: Likely in the low- to mid-120-mph range, which varied on the rear-axle ratios
Note: 1975 was the last year for the Corvette convertible before it was dropped for 1976; Chevrolet produced around 4629 units, but it wasn’t that popular, with many buyers instead opting for the coupe body style
