1969 Chevrolet Corvette

The Atlanta Showroom is offering this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette. This Corvette has been loved by its previous owner for 32 years. This Corvette houses a 350ci/350hp V-8 mated to a Munci 4-Speed. This rebuilt vette has about 10k miles placed on the odometer and ready for you to put the pedal down to the carpet. The undercarriage has been worked on the past so the ride is smooth and handles like a Vette should. This vette has a book of receipts documenting the care placed on this double chrome bumper Corvette. Duntov's primary aim of his professional life was to make the Corvette the finest sports car in the world. The styling department viewed his car as a unique opportunity to fool around with the swoopy shapes and flashing lights that somehow to them mean "sport." It is within this minor tempest that the Corvette finds it’s bearings, Duntov viewing his automobile as a purposeful, well-balanced sports car, while his rivals see it as a Flash Gordon Thunderbird for the Hugh Hefner school of mass-cult glamor. A Corvette begs you to get on dry pavement, with no place to go except a carefree spin down some interesting roads, the Corvette is an ever-loving kick. The controls are nearly perfect, the throttle, clutch and brake pedals flawlessly placed, with smooth linkages that belie the potency of the car. The close-ratio manual transmission is a joy to operate, and the suspension—firm at low speeds, but perfect from 70 mph upward—is ideally suited for this automobile. In fact, one of the most extraordinary things about the Corvette is its overall smoothness. Most cars having an excess 300hp are jerky, neck-snapping, uncivilized and bull-like, but the Corvette's controls are so well designed that utter novices can jump aboard and drive like veterans. Options include: AM/FM radio, Cassette, Convertible Top, Hard Top, Seat Belts, Vinyl Interior, Raised White Letter radial tires, Rally wheels.
