2) There's no better complement to a gold exterior than a black interior. There seems to have been real care taken with the bucket seats, door panels, map pockets, and dash, because they all retain their rich darkness. The interior is not a complete midnight experience with the shine of the three-spoke wheel as well as some aftermarket wood veneer around the center console and gauges. A Corvette is a premium experience, so this one comes with features such as power steering, power windows, power brakes, heat/defrost, and tilt steering. There is a nicely upgraded stereo with a knob-style display that looks period correct, but it is really a more modern unit with a digital tuner and an iPod connection. The best sound this car makes is the growl from the 383 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. You might be thinking that's a misprint because Chevrolet never offered that displacement, but about 5,500 miles ago a 350 was rebuilt into a stroker motor. This increases the displacement of the small block for more power in a compact package. Although it looks just like most 350 motors, this stealthy engine now puts out 430 hp - we'll even show you the dyno sheet to prove it! 1969 was also the first year for the now famously stout TH350 three-speed automatic transmission. All of this power gets to the road via a set of Goodyear GTII performance tires. Even without the modern rubber, these C3 Corvettes have a lightweight surefootedness that makes them feel more secure than just about any other domestic contemporary. When it's time to stop, there are disc brakes at all four wheels. This coupe screams honesty, right down to the included maintenance records. The icing on the cake is this Corvette is the sneaky street-eating motor. BiN $29,995 (Ended) on December 14, 2016. 1) 1969 Corvette Stingray. The mileage is actual and the car features rare Riverside Gold paint that is in excellent condition. The car is also fully optioned with factory AC, tilt wheel, power brakes and power windows. Everything works as it should on this classic Corvette. Clean examples of these cars are getting harder to find especially in this rare color combination. Don't miss this opportunity to own a very nice Corvette. December 14, 2007 |
