Description of 1969 Chevrolet Corvette L36 427/390HP Convertible

A numbers-matching 427 big block, four-on-the-floor, and a well-done factory-correct package makes this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette is everything you want in a fast and distinguished droptop Stingray. And it's just coming off long-term ownership.

Fathom Green is a great color to have on a big block 'Vette. It has the mean attitude similar to black but with added sophistication like a British Racing Green. This car was owned by the same person for the last 30 years. There a restoration done early under this owner, and it included a quality respray that has a hint of metallic element. And because the car has been cherished during this time, it still retains a nice gloss in the sunshine. So it's exactly how you want a sunshine-friendly droptop classic to be. Nice body panels combine with the nice paint to deliver a terrific job of highlighting all the best parts you love about a C3, like the sharp pointed front end, wide flared fenders, and the vented hood that tells the world there's big block power underneath. This is a great year for brightwork with a deep shine on the bumpers, luggage rack, side vents, and Rally wheel package. Plus, those side pipes are a great way to show off both shine and performance.

The tan folding roof has a sophisticated apperance when it's in place, and when you take it down, you get the same chic look from the factory-correct saddle interior. This one is done exactly the way you want it with updated leather seats, the correct AM/FM stereo, provisions for updated R134a air conditioning, and an overall tidy appearance. The C3 Corvette is a driver's car with the large dual speedo and tach package right in front of you, and there's a full set of gauges to the side (even the clock works.) But we know what really grabbed all your attention...the bright chrome shifter seizes your focus like a beacon begging you to get in and start this one up.

Under the hood is the numbers-matching L36 427 cubic-inch V8. It has quite a tidy look, which is part of this car's well-respected history. The motor was even rebuilt in 2015. It fires up eagerly as the big V8 inhales deeply with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with a sweet rumble you hear so clearly through this iconic side pipes. This one runs and drives with the confident feeling of a car that has been carefully maintained for decades. So you'll love taking full control of the monster motor with the numbers-matching Muncie M20 four-speed manual transmission. And because the C3 was one of the best sports cars of its day, the fully independent suspension, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes mean this monster 'Vette is easy to tame.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and build receipts. It's the kind of Stingray that will leave others green with envy, so don't miss this deal. Call today!!!
