1969 Chevrolet Corvette

Description

The bold red-on-red presentation and fun T-tops r make this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette instantly attractive. So when that's also combined with a major investment in power and poise - including a fuel-injected 435 hp stroker V8 - you start to see how this speedy red Stingray is irresistible.

Red Corvettes are so legendary they write songs about them, and a Stingray like this instantly tells you why. It has an all-American flair with a nice gloss in the paint that's the right balance of attractive yet driver-ready mature. There are also flush-fitting headlight doors, crisp lines, and well-defined fenders to give this the look of quality. Plus, nothing says Americana like good brightwork, and the early C3s are known for it. The front bumper draws attention to the shark-like front end, and the '69 even added chrome to the fender vents to really bring out the gills of this street shark. And everyone loves to see Chevy's classic Rally wheel package shining brightly.

And while the exterior leaves a lasting impression, the red interior really doubles down on this rosy appeal. It remains attractive while staying driver-ready, which is the overall theme of this Stingray. So you'll love taking out the T-tops and sharing this total red package with the world. There's even R134a air conditioning if you feel like adding a cool wind to this breeze (will need repair). Other nice upgrades include a retro-style AM/FM/cassette stereo and a newer three-spoke steering wheel with excellent grip. In fact, this wheel goes nicely with other driver-oriented features like the large speedo and tach in front of you, the full auxiliary gauge panel at eye level, and an EFI controller on the center console.

When you look under the hood, the ribbed racing flag valve covers and shining air grabber with callout make this look like a standard small block. But you already know better. This stealthy setup is really a 383 cubic-inch ATK crate motor installed within the last few years. It has nice features like a large aluminum radiator with an electric fan to help keep it running cool, and wrapped headers that add power and rumble to the dual exhaust. Best of all, this is topped with a Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection system for the best in power and consistency. The motor is rated at 435 horsepower, and we have the dyno sheet to prove it! C3 Corvettes are already built to be great drivers with a fully independent suspension, power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes. And this one takes it up a notch with upgrades like tubular front A-arms and Bilstein shocks.

The sale comes complete with build receipts, maintenance records, the dyno sheet, and T-top storage bags. This is a red-on-red Stingray that knows how to be powerful and turn heads. So if you like your classics to be truly memorable, call today!
