The '69 Corvette is widely recognized as the most desirable of all the chrome bumper Sharks. This was a year of firsts and lasts. The first being the introduction of the 350ci small block for the first time in a Corvette and the last being the exit of the mighty 427 big block. But as mighty as the 427 was and is, y for the most popular choice in power plants for '69 was the 350ci small block. This was a workhorse engine that gave plenty of power in its 300hp base version, ut it was user friendly, asy to live with on a daily basis and you could drive it year round without fear! But, he '69 Corvette was offered with two small blocks, he second being the meaner 350hp version, hich is in the example being offered here . . .
If you could go back in time to your local Chevy dealer and order a new '69, e'd bet a lot of buyer's would order one just like this; Monza Red, lack interior, 46 350/350hp small block, -21 close ratio 4-spd transmission, ower steering, m/fm radio, ide louver trim and both tops! The original owner took very good care of his baby as it's managed to survive in almost original condition, aving only been driven 36k miles! The interior looks to be original and is in great condition and everything works, ven the fiber optic system and clock! The paint is beautiful, he White soft top in excellent condition and correctly dated. But the best part of the car is how it runs and drives. It starts up instantly, dles smooth and accelerates right now!! And the radial tires help it go down the road straight as an arrow! It also has excellent documentation including the Owner's Kit, rotect-O-Plate, riginal Window Sticker and more! We don't often get original examples in that have been cared for as well as this one has. Don't miss your opportunity to be its next caretaker!
