Don't take this personally, but I can't believe anyone would even ask this question ! Thought it was a joke or a trick question as previously posted .

The 1969 is in Lebanon, Middle East and has very little information and no pictures of engine, frame, suspension, etc.

Is there a link for the 76? It's sounding more like a deal, at $15K or less...

The prospective buyer lives there, so not sight unseen.

If you look up the conversion from Lebanese pounds to US dollars, the price of that car at 40,000 LBP is 44 cents.

This thread is beginning to show some weird stuff.
Why would anyone who lives in the USA, buy a 69 Corvette from an Arab country and ship it to the USA.
It makes no sense when there are so many here for sale.

l Was confused as well, but according to the last post from MelWff the buyer lives in LEBANON where the 69 is located & not the USA. Still sounds & smells fishy

The 76 has been repainted. No black available from the factory. Something to consider.
