    I think you either love or hate that color combo. Awesome drivetrain for that car tho.....

    Definitely a bad ass conversion!! Old school looks with modern drive train!! RESTOMOD 1000% This Corvette now has a more dependable drive train it'll get close to if not double the miles per gallon and it definitely has doubled the horsepower rating!!! You know what they say it gets smiles per gallon not miles per gallon now!!

    That being said ,is a complement to the vehicle because y’all always have a great selection!!!
    Thanks Nicks

    Not a big fan of the late model C3s or of the drivetrain swaps, but this one won me over. It is well done and for a Florida boy having working A/C in a beautiful car that can blow the doors off most of the street life out there is a big plus! Keep bringing in more C3s like this to choose from! As an aside, I usually take the dealer stickers off my vehicles once I buy them since I figure they aren’t paying me to advertise for them after they just took me to the cleaners, but I’d proudly wear the Maple Motors decals on any vehicle I bought from y’all. God bless.✝️🇺🇸🫡

    I had a 1996 and 2000 corvette so Im over them. I love the late 60's and early 70's those I would consider. Try making a tight u-turn in one of these things. With that said, this one looks and sounds great for someone who is interested in this year and model.

    Very good video. Yes nice car too. I enjoy your videos and explanations very much. A few years back I had purchased a 1932 Ford Hi-Boy from Art Corvette. IT was an excellant car. Now I keep coming back to your web-site to check what's up. I've got a 1969 Triumph TR6 that looks like it's been in a bottle most of it's life. Will be selling this year and honestly plan to check out Maple Motors when that time comes.
    Great Job and you give out a great vibe.
    Thanks

    Nick, I just want to say I am a Big fan of Maple Motor's and tell around about 5-10 people a week about y'all. I appreciate y'alls price range. Lord willing I will show up one day and bring cash for a vehicle, insurance, tag n registration, gas, and enough for Bryan's Motor Sports to fix the small stuff so I could do a road trip. I appreciate the integrity of y'alls business and any of these haters that keep popping off need to just be quiet and take care of their own business and clean their side of the street. Beautiful Corvette. Love a Chevy Corvette and love Maple Motor's. Sincerely, Tony

Also, you may have covered this before, but how do you get the "driverless car" shot at the beginning of these? Anyway, thanks for all you do, real fun channel.

    You guys and gals at Maple Motors sell very obtainable classics that you can drive and enjoy while you work on it. Drives me nuts seeing people complain on your pricing. The people whom complain about your prices obviously have no clue on the cost of vehicles in various conditions. In the many years I've been watching I quite literally seen 1 car that i thought was questionably priced a little too high. The vehicle that stands out that you could of had a higher price for was that 57 NAPCO 4X4, you could of easily asked 20k more! Those are very rare especially in the condition that the one you had was. I tried so hard to get the money for that truck.

    If Chevy had this drive train in the 73 to82 they would have sold 50% more Corvettes. This car is worth the extra money because without the LS2 drive train it would only be worth 10 to 15 thousand.25 k you won't be sorry, that's all this car needed to be great.
