This is an American hero you simply can’t ignore. The lines. The silhouette. That color. Donnybrooke Green—not just any green, but a deep, classic shade that shifts subtly in the sunlight. And then there’s the interior: Saddle tan. Warm, elegant, and the perfect match for that rich dark green. If you ask us, it’s a rare and special combination for a true American icon. What we’re talking about here is a 1970 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Under the hood: a 350 cubic inch V8 putting out 300 horsepower, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Just the way you want it. No automatic, no unnecessary extras. Just shifting gears, turning the wheel, and enjoying the ride. Beneath the surface, you’ll find the familiar mechanicals of a classic Corvette, but visually, Chevrolet broke new ground in 1968. The design took heavy inspiration from the radical Mako Shark II concept, which explains the flared fenders, the low-slung nose, and those dramatic rear haunches. The result? A car that looks like it’s moving even when it’s parked. And as a convertible, it’s everything you want in an open-air experience: the V8 rumble behind you, the sun above you, and the feeling that you’re driving something truly special. This particular Corvette was owned by the same person for over 25 years. Always garage-kept, well cared for, and it shows. The bodywork is crisp, the paint is in great shape, the chrome gleams like it should, and the wheels are spotless. The interior is original, with well-preserved upholstery, a welcoming atmosphere, and that unmistakable American charm. Mechanically, it’s in fine form. The V8 is responsive, the gearbox shifts with confidence, and the driving feel is just pure fun. One turn of the key and you instantly understand why Americans call this “America’s Sports Car.” And here’s a fun piece of trivia: Chevrolet thought this car was so cool that in 1969 they had three of them specially built for the Apollo 12 astronauts. All in black and gold. Out of this world, literally. That tells you a lot about the status and appeal of this car. Very few C3 Convertibles were finished in this color combo. And in this condition? Rare. So whether you’re looking for a Sunday cruiser, a standout for your collection, or simply ready to turn a long-held dream into reality, this is your moment.
