Serious inquiries only please. PM me for more info.

Thank you!

The car drives like a dream and turns heads everywhere

My car was an original 350/300 numbers matching car. I have carefully preserved the original engine, transmission and all other parts I removed from the car. I was lucky enough to have a lot of the original documentation that came with the car such as the original order form, dealer binder with owners manual, build sheet and assorted tags, etc. I even have the original owners finance papers. Their note was only $111 per month They traded in a '64 convertible on this '69 so they were true Corvette fanatics
