Default Looking for my first Corvette
Just thought I would give this a try.
1969 300 HP, automatic, Monza Red convertible.
VIN # 194679S732238
I sold it to Pro Team in 1995.
Any info is appreciated.

Larry

You have wrong numbers in your VIN 194671S1 32238 does not fit in
That is not a 1969 VIN

Please explain. I have a pic of the engine pad stamp.
I created the vin from the numbers on the block so I may have left something out.
Should there be a 9 in that slot?

You are right. Thank you. I changed it in my initial post to 1946719S32238
Is that a valid VIN
