This 1973 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible marked "America's Sports Car" transformation from a muscle to a touring sports car. Chevrolet even advertised that "We gave it radials, a quieter ride, guard beams, and a nose job."
A number of detail changes made the 1973 a better, quieter, and more comfortable Corvette than its predecessors. The most noticeable was the front bumper. Gone was the traditional chrome bumper, now replaced with plastic energy-absorbing .....
structures with body color flexible urethane coverings to meet federal 5-mph accident standards. It was the only year that a "rubber" bumper and chrome rear bumper were used at the same time. The hood was redesigned to eliminate the issue ridden windshield wiper covers and provide carburetor air from the high-pressure area at the base of the windshield. More important changes were invisible, including improved sound deadening treatment, new body mounts and side impact door beams.
