Vehicle Detail
This beautiful 1969 Corvette Stingray Roadster finished in the highly desirable Cortez Silver exterior with Gunmetal (silver gray) interior is appealing to everyone who enjoys classic corvettes. This highly desirable classic has original specifications including paint, upholstery, engine, transmission and appears almost as it might have when the car was on the Chevrolet floor back in 1969. This classic vehicle has the optional 350 cubic inch, 350 horsepower engine mated to the 4sp transmission, with power steering to make driving both exciting and enjoyable. The cars motor although not original and without the (AIR) smog pump, does have the original CE (Chevrolet Engine) 5-year/50,000 mile powertrain warranty replacement block that was available to Chevrolet dealers in 1971 for any corvette built in 1969 that needed a replacement block. The original block was replace with the (CE) block in 1971 when the car had 48,000 miles on the odometer and is stamped accordantly. The heads, intake, clutch housing, carb, transmission, starter, and exhaust headers are correct numbers matching components for the car. The car starts right up, runs strong, the transmission is smooth and car drives very well. I will point out that if I was not selling the car at this time I would replace the bushings in the front suspension to make the steering tighter. All the lights including the fiber optics, gauges, clock and the original radio work as intended. The car rides on a new set of BF Goodrich T/A radials. In sum this beautiful Stingray is ready for showing, driving pleasure or both. Having traveled the actual 89,305 miles shown on the odometer over its 41 years, this classic corvette is in exceptional condition and has been a driver not a trailered show car. The cortez silver paint is in excellent condition and has no paint chips or blemishes. The overall condition in every respect for the dash pad, door panels, seat coverings, carpets and the convertible top (no hard top) is very good to excellent. The car has never been in the rain since I purchased it in 2006. At the time of purchase the car had been repainted, a new top installed and new carpets installed. On a personal note I hate to sell this car. I put only 659 miles on the car since 2006 and have maintained the car to a high standard. Since purchasing the car I have purchased and installed the correct numbers matching starter, distributor cap, distributor wires and all ignition shielding. All ther correct heater and radiator hoses have been installed along with the correct A/C fuel filter. Correct GM oil filter is installed and a new air cleaner lid (correct A/C) installed. New points, plugs and coil all which are correct for the car. I have some past owner documentation on the car along with maintenance and cost information. The only reason I am selling this car is that I have a future business opportunity pending, Good luck on the bidding!
