Rathbone’s Chevrolet Corvette

    • Currently 3.5/5 Stars.
     

Yellow '93 coupe. It's a 6 speed Z07. The car has a black cloth interior, as well. I've never seen a Corvette with a cloth interior before. Appearantly this was a no cost option. It wears better than leather, doesn't get so hot or cold, and grips you better when taking corners.

It has FX3 (adjustable ride control), ZO7 (big brakes, larger sway bars, wider wheels, etc.), and a 6 speed manual transmission, but it doesn't have much else - just the performance options. No CD, and no digital HVAC controls which was a disappointment for me. I like being able to set the temperature at 72 or whatever and not have to mess with it anymore. My Blazer has this and it's great.

This is my first Vette, but I had a '94 Trans Am back in the day and loved the 6 speed transmission. I'm looking forward to takng some long trips. I also have a '69 Firebird 400 convertible but it's not really well suited for going much more than a few miles at a time.

Z07 suspension package - 824 cars produced with it in '93
Competition Yellow paint - 517 cars produced with it in '93
Cloth interior - total of 426 cars built

With each of these rare options it likely the only one built with this combination.

Just added a full Corsa exhaust system. Much quieter and better looking than the old Supertrap system.

5/16/09  Well, I sold this car yesterday.  It was a great car and I feel like I sold it too cheap but the economy sucks and what can you do?  I'm looking for another but this time a 6 speed convertible.

Nice, now I know what mine would look like yellow. My parents live in palm coast and I live in daytona. I'd love to see your car in person. Oh ya, my parents have 3 yorkies and a great dane. Do you meet with any car clubs around there? Your vette is sweet by the way. Check mine out. Maybe you have seen me around palm coast.
