71, original code 983 Brands Hatch Green? If so 3445 made in 71.
Interior Vinyl or leather? 417 or 420 code? If that's the original saddle it was special ordered.
Nothing like an early C3!

Our 68, 3 Speed Stick, 411 interior 978 exterior. Mostly numbers matching. FUN!
(I didn't add the Sting Ray badges or the wheels. I have OEM ralleys and P01s as well (hubcaps)).

L46 350HP was not available in 71. I believe that car is a 70.
Are those pics from the previous owner's dungeon or yours? Let's get that beauty out in the daylight all cleaned up and give us some proper pics! Sweeet ride!
I had a '71 for many years...enjoyed it immensely...but the time finally came when I had to "thin the herd". The two Oldsmobiles won out and I had to sell the Corvette and the GTO...but they went to good homes!
Blow crud out the frame with compressed air. Especially at the rear kick ups in front of the rear wheels.
Get inside the frame and bird cage with LPS3, Fluid Film, Krown or some type of creeping rust inhibitor.
Repeat...behind the doors in front of the rear wheels above the rear axle mount, core support etc. Do the whole frame and as much of the cage as you can get to.
Pull the inner & outer trim off the A pillars and around the top of the windshield inspect the bird cage. Sauce it up too.
