I haven't seen any color numbers for '69 or '70.

That information about specific combinations is not available anywhere. Many times we have information for certain year models about how many were 4 speeds (about 30,350 for example in 1969), and information on how many were gold, but no information exists for how many gold with 4 speed and with convertible top exist. Some people try to guess about the rarity of combinations but that is all it is, a guess.

I was interested in knowing how many were made, there couldn't have been many. I don't see many on the internet{ebay,cars-on-line,etc,} Just high hopes of having a somewhat rare car.

Funny how just about everybody notices the same thing about their own car- finding a twin is pretty rare no matter what year or colour or combination of options.

Taken to an extreme including ALL options on a given car, most Corvettes are actually '1 of 1'.

Statistically, mine is less than 1 of 1 so I guess it really does not exist.

Having a 'RARE' car is fun. But it's not ALWAYS good. There are very few 68 and 69 3-speed cars. They're very unique but not too desirable.

Not really expecting rare just different than your everyday ordinary reds and blacks, just making a point and was wondering how many riverside gold cars were made in 69?
