1970 Chevrolet Corvette C3 454 Convertible for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1970 Chevrolet Corvette C3 454 Convertible is a used car showing 44,265 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Marlboro Maroon with a Black interior.

1970 was the first year a Corvette could be ordered with the 454 big-block, and the last before compression was lowered for 1971, which makes this LS5 convertible one of the final cars of that uninhibited era. It was acquired from its original American owner, and it has had two owners in all, with about 27,000 miles recorded since new.

Its last Dutch keeper was meticulous, and it shows. The black interior looks authentic, nothing seems to have been changed and changed again, and the body is neat, with just enough patina to remain believable. A handful of invoices can be inspected.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Chevrolet Corvette C3 454 uses the 454 cu in (7.4 L) LS5 big-block V8, new to the Corvette for 1970, rated at 390 hp SAE gross at 4,800 rpm and 680 Nm at 3,400 rpm, with a four-speed manual gearbox, wide or close ratio, or the three-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic 400 automatic.

FAQ

This Chevrolet Corvette C3 in the European market

Is this Chevrolet Corvette C3 priced above or below the European market?

At €64,500, it sits above the median of €59,500 for the 3 Chevrolet Corvette C3 advertised in Europe in 2026. 67% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Chevrolet Corvette C3 be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Chevrolet Corvette C3 cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €4,459 in the United States, excluding options. This car is advertised at €64,500, 1347% above that figure.
