1971 Chevrolet Corvette LT-1 Convertible - 4-Speed War Bonnet Yellow Documented
A numbers-matching LT-1 350 paired with a 4-speed manual, wrapped in rare War Bonnet Yellow over Tan-this '71 Stingray nails the C3 sweet spot: high-revving small-block, driver involvement, and classic chrome-bumper style. The car shows 90,714 miles and comes with period documentation and an organized history binder.

Exterior
War Bonnet Yellow presents with deep gloss and uniform metallic pop across the long hood and sculpted quarters. Chrome bumpers, egg-crate grilles, rocker trim, and emblems show strongly. Rally wheels and raised-white-letter tires complete the period stance, while the white convertible top lends a crisp contrast.
Interior
The tan cockpit appears well-kept: seat upholstery, door panels, dash pad, and console show tidy surfaces. The original-style gauge cluster is clear and the shifter plate displays the proper 4-speed gate. Factory radio stack remains in place; fiber-optic panel and console trim look clean.
Engine Bay
Underhood you'll find the correct look for an LT-1-ribbed aluminum valve covers, chrome lid air cleaner, and tidy wiring. The bay shows proper decals and a dual-reservoir master cylinder. Starts easily, idles with that signature solid-lifter cadence, and pulls strong through the revs.
Undercarriage
Lift photos show straight frame rails, intact floors, and neatly routed dual exhaust. Suspension components appear solid with honest finishes-no underbody surprises for a chrome-bumper C3.
