1969 Chevrolet Corvette in Lavergne, Tennessee

Vehicle Description

A numbers-matching 427 big block, four-speed manual, factory-correct Daytona Yellow, and a factory hard top - yes, this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is everything you want in a fast and distinguished vintage 'Vette. Also, this comes highly documented with it's original tank sticker, protect-o-plate, and more!

Daytona Yellow is a great color to have on a big block 'Vette. It's a rare color offered for only a couple of years, and its name alone instantly reminds you of the Corvette's victories on the racetrack. It brightly highlights the crisp lines of the big block hood and where the tall rear fender line meets the European styled Kamm tail. And we know you'll love the way it also looks with the color-matching factory hardtop. The early C3 cars are the ones to own because of all the great brightwork. On a properly presented '69 that means nicely finished intricate chrome bumpers, bright rocker panels, and shining inserts so this Stingray's truly has gills. Top it off with a correct rally wheel package on cool redline tires, and this is the kind of car that will grab attention in even the most finicky Corvette crowd.

Nothing matches up better on a yellow car than a dark black interior. It's the kind of timeless color combination that looks both period-correct and will always have modern appeal. The whole package is exceptionally tidy, which is a good thing because there will be plenty of people checking out the inside of this droptop as you go for a bit of wind-in-your-hair cruising. The C3 Corvette is a true driver's car with the three-spoke sports steering wheel, large dual gauges right in front of you, and a full set of auxiliary readouts to the side. 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.

When you twist the key, the symphony begins. There's just no mistaking the big power and big rumble from a big block that's serenading through a dual exhaust. With 390 advertised horsepower, this numbers-matching L36 427 cubic-inch V8 is a true legend forged in steel. And lovers of originality will not only covet the motor, but the level of detail, too. This one has everything you want from the shiny valve covers with correct Tonawanda decal, to the Rochester four-barrel carburetor still feeding the monster motor. Out on the road, having the original Muncie M21 close-ratio four-speed means you get full control as you attack the backroads. And the fully independent suspension, limited slip rear end, and four-wheels disc brakes means this classic has great modern moves, too.

The sale comes complete with a huge documentation packet, including warranty card, owner's manual, maintenance records, and it's original tank sticker. So you have a beautifully presented convertible with all the right documentation for a true classic. And also it's a huge power machine you'll love driving. That level of appeal never stays around long, so don't miss out. Call today!!!
