1969 Convertible Values
Hi there 'Vettes!
Came into a little money, and always dreamed about owning a Corvette. I found interesting 1969 close to home that won't totally break the bank (but close lol). 1969 convertible with matching numbers. 350 auto PS PDB factory correct in excellent condition. Looks like a repaint in factory correct “976” Lemans Blue. Black interior. Owned last 27 years by same person. $31k, which from some basic research looks like a good deal. Wish it was original paint. Not sure if interior original. What do you folks think?

New links works - I guess FB doesn't work on this forum lol.
Actually they have two cars that look and as described seem viable. Here is a 1970:

If you’re not experienced with C3 Corvettes I would recommending hiring a trusted person to do a THOROUGH pre buy inspection. I would do a bore scope up into the birdcage and look for water intrusion up at the windshield. If you haven’t driven a C3 maybe you could get a ride or drive thru a Vette club or car show? This is my second C3 so I knew exactly what they are and what they aren’t.
Good luck with your search!
