1970 Corvette Parts

Due to the United Workers (UAW) strike that pushed the past year’s production back, the 1970 Corvette couldn’t hit showrooms until February of 1970. The result? A large drop in total production numbers. The 1970 Corvette’s arrival also came at a time where Chevrolet was facing criticism for lack of perceived production value and build quality. They recognized the issues, and knew they had big problems to solve.

In 1970, those solutions were tied to a number of small, but mighty changes — most prominently in design. The exterior featured: fender flairs and louvers, rectangular exhaust tips, square mesh front grilles, parking lamps, and more. The interior featured: redesigned seats, additional headroom, easier access to rear storage, and a deluxe interior option with leather seats, wood-grained console and door panels, and higher-grade carpet.

With the help of these retouches, Chevrolet got the Corvette back on track. Although production numbers were low in 1970, these upgrades set the scene for the rest of the C3 models to come.
