Today’s AutoHunter Spotlight is a special one – a 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray where 100 percent of the sale proceeds, excluding buyers premium, will go to Fostering Community, a nonprofit serving children in foster care.
This C3 Corvette is powered by a 350cid V8 with a chrome-finished Edelbrock air cleaner and high-performance camshaft. It’s paired with a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission.
The fiberglass body was professionally repainted in Steel Grey metallic and is equipped with color-matched removable T-tops, pop-up headlamps, and vented front fenders that wear the Stingray emblem.
Inside, the sports coupe sit black vinyl bucket seats, matching door panels and a dashboard that houses the factory Pioneer AM/FM/cassette deck.
The 5-digit odometer shows 1,000 miles, which the seller believes to be 101,000.
Being auctioned for charity, the proceeds will be going to the Louisiana-based nonprofit, Fostering Community, whose mission is to “improve the lives of children impacted by foster care through advocacy, resources, and support,” the nonprofit states on its website.

The auction for this C3 Corvette Stingray ends May 19 at 12:00 p.m. PDT.
