1969 Chevrolet Corvette

For sale in our Detroit showroom is this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette. With only 43,194 miles, it's a true survivor! This chrome bumper beauty is equipped with the classic 350 cubic inch V8 that has a nice rumble and drives nicely, as it shifts through a 350 turbo automatic transmission. The eye-catching Riverside Gold paint compliments the curves of the vehicle, with accents of chrome and silver. The unique color is the most interesting part of this car, as this option was only available in 1969. In 1969, small block engine displacement increased from 327 CID to 350 CID though hp stayed the same. The optional Positraction rear axle in this Vette for sale, mandated on many engine/gearbox combinations, was installed on more than 95% of the cars. The "Stingray" for sale script nameplates appeared on front fenders. Exterior door handles were redesigned so the finger plate would actuate the door, eliminating the separate release button. Backup lights were integrated into the taillights on this Corvette for sale. Side mounted exhausts and front fender vent trim were options for this year only and this Corvette was optioned without side exhaust. On the inside, revised door panels provided additional shoulder room in the C3's tighter cabin and headrests became standard. Accounting for 57% of the cars, coupes with their removable roof panels began a trend of outselling roadsters. An extended production cycle due to a labor dispute increased '69 for sale's volume. This was the last year for the L88 engine and the only year for the ZL1 option, which offered an all aluminum 427 cu in (7.0 L) big-block engine listed at 430 hp. Pull the T-Tops out on a nice day and you will enjoy every minute behind the wheel. With a rare color and the classic American look, this V8-powered chariot of freedom is begging to be driven by a proud new owner Options include: AM/FM radio, power steering, power brakes, seat belts, factory rally wheels, T-Tops, and more!
