I have to agree with you there, they are my favorite year C3. I vow to work up to owning one one day.

Before I bought my red '69 L46 vert, I had no idea people liked the look of those cars in particular. I was just looking for a fun convertible for cruising on nice days. I was initially going to get a '32 Ford Hiboy, but that 69 Corvette just caught my eye.

I still wouldn't mind owning a Hiboy one day, and also a 50 Merc with a chopped top and DeSoto grill, and a 40 Ford with primered flames, and a 427 Cobra (original or kit), a 67-69 tricked out Camaro...

Unfortunately I don't know if I could ever part with the vette just to be able to have a different fun car. I might be stuck with this one!

I like my 69 Daytona Yellow L68 roadster. I'll like it even better when I put an interior in it this Summer.
