1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
For Sale is a 1969 Chevrolet Corvette in Lemans Blue with black interior. It currently has 73000 original miles. I purchased the car from the second owner who did a complete frame off restoration in the late 90’s. The chassis and birdcage are extremely clean and free of rust. The car drives great and is mechanically very solid. The car has a 350 4 bolt engine that has been bored 30 over with a mild cam. The transmission is a Turbo 400 that shifts perfect. The car has been cared for extensively it had the engine and transmission rebuilt 4000 miles ago. The car has seen no rain or snow and has been garage kept all its life.

Cosmetically it is in great shape but it is not a trailer queen. The car was stripped completely during the restoration process so it has only the correct Lemans Blue paint on the gel coat. It has a small 1” crack in the back driver’s fender that can be easily fixed (was next on my list but now that we are expecting a new baby I don’t expect to give the car the attention it deserves). The paint is in good shape and it gets compliments and thumbs up at shows and on the road. Has won several awards at local shows. Chrome is in excellent shape. Everything was re-chromed recently and the back of the bumpers has been powdered coated to prevent any pitting. Emblems that were not in great shape were replaced. All lights and optic fiber system work perfectly. The T tops are in great shape and have no leaks.
