The Chevrolet Corvette is a true American icon, and a Corvette C3 convertible like this one perfectly illustrates why the Corvette has remained so beloved. The styling is unmistakably Corvette: the long hood, flowing body lines, pop-up headlights, and those signature front fender curves. At Gallery Aaldering, we believe the color combination of Monza (Rally) Red with a red interior suits this Corvette beautifully.

This car has undergone restoration and mechanical work in the past, which explains its very tidy condition today. The body is straight, the red paint is exceptionally clean, and the panel fitment is precise. The wheels complement the car’s appearance and complete the picture. For a closer look, we invite you to browse the extensive photo gallery on our website.
Inside, the cabin presents well, with its unmistakable steering wheel and rounded gauge cluster instantly signaling that you are in a C3. The carpets are in good order, and the seats are in excellent condition. Altogether, the interior conveys a neat and well-kept impression.

Under the hood lies the high-output L45 350 cubic inch V8. This engine sounds fantastic, fires up without hesitation, and delivers plenty of torque. In our view, the four-speed manual gearbox paired with this V8 is the ideal combination, highlighting the Corvette’s sporting character. The transmission shifts smoothly, and once on the road, the handling of this C3 leaves a lasting impression.

The third-generation Corvette, like this one, was built between 1967 and 1982. The 1970 model year, represented here, introduced several updates. For the first time, the body featured integrated fender flares that not only enhanced the car’s muscular stance but also offered practical protection against road debris. At the front, a new eggcrate grille was paired with matching side vents, while the turn signals grew larger and more square in design. At the rear, the round exhaust outlets were replaced by larger rectangular units, giving the Corvette a more powerful and mature appearance. Inside, redesigned seats were offered along with an optional “Deluxe” interior package that included wood accents, deeper carpeting, and leather upholstery. Beneath the surface, Positraction became standard, as did tinted glass and a manual transmission with revised gear ratios.

As for engines, the L45 350 cubic inch (5.7 liter) V8 remained the backbone of the lineup, delivering the perfect balance of reliability and performance. It was versatile enough to make the Corvette equally enjoyable as a swift sports car or a comfortable cruiser. Production in 1970 totaled just 17,316 units, limited by a late start to the model year, which adds to its appeal among collectors. In short, the 1970 Corvette represented subtle yet meaningful refinements to an American legend and remains a wonderful driver’s car, especially with the characterful L45 V8 under its long hood.
