classic vintage chrome chevy vette 427 v8 3-speed auto transmission silver
Description
With distinct factory-correct colors, numbers-matching big block V8 power, and a Tri-Power upgrade, this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette is a great standout classic. So it has a sharp look that instantly attractive, and it only gets better the deeper you dig into the details.
Cortez Silver is one of the brightest and most distinct metallic colors offered on the Stingray, and it was only available for two years. So that's why they spent plenty of time and money getting the paint looking so good. In fact, we have thousands $$$$$ in receipts from the 2004 restoration. And when you take good care of quality, it lasts. That's why you have crisp body lines, mirror-like chrome bumpers, excellent fitting T-tops, flush headlight doors, and an overall look of a well-done car worthy of a nickname (how about Quicksilver?)
The interior highlights why this one is a particularly great driver's machine. The factory-correct red has an aggressive look that's fantastic against the exterior silver. And they invested heavily during the restoration to make sure that the seats, carpeting, door panels, dash, and much more feel bright and fresh. It really has a quality classic feel right down to the little things, like storage bags for the T-tops and the working factory-style AM/FM radio. There's an unmatched feeling as you grab the three spoke steering wheel, gaze through to the large speedo and tach, and see your full auxiliary gauge panel at eye-level. And this experience only gets better with the wind running through your hair. That's why it's great to not only have the T-tops, but also the removable rear window to allow this coupe to give you a convertible-like experience.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 427 cubic-inch V8. And while the displacement alone will have you excited, there's also been an upgrade to a triple set of dual-barrel carbs under the iconic triangle air topper. They further upgraded the big block with a new performance camshaft and long tube headers feeding a roaring 2.5-inch dual exhaust. The TH400 three-speed transmission was part of the work during the restoration. It's an ideal pairing that's stout enough handle the big power motor, and at the same time, provides smooth automatic shifting. The Corvette's fully independent suspension, power steering, four-wheel power disc brakes, and upgraded Bilstein shocks makes this big block beast quite fun and easy to tame.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, maintenance records, and build receipts. This is a sharp-looking and powerful coupe that's done the way you want it, and it's ready to run right now. Don't miss out, call today!
