Nothing but Chevy Orange for me. :D

I thought late C3's came with "blue" engines? I know the '69's didn't but what about late model C3's?

Didn't notice it initially.. After looking again - I noticed that the engine was blue.. The color doesn't bother me...

Appears to be a nice looking '69 vert. Forget the *Ford Blue*.... drop a nice crate engine in it and someone will have a nice ride. :cheers:

Olivier....

Watch your behind.... I only need 18,000 more posts and I'm gonna pass your butt up. Jesh!!!!!! (Might take 10 years) :cheers:

Then again... I have tickets on both the 50th Anniversary Pace Car(500 tickets) & the '03 Go for the Gold Vette(2003 tickets) at the Corvette Museum and if I win one of them I will not even have time with the cruising around I will be doing. Of course.... there will be an initial YIPPPPEEE here!

Dang, that car looks like mine! Seats look like '70-73. I wonder if it was originally a BB (got the hood). I'll bet it goes for $12K or more.

What's up with the coolant on the intake? Why can't some of these people take at least 10 seconds to clean stuff like that up before they take pics???? Not a good sign.

Those look like the seats from my '70. Steering wheel isn't original either.
Looks to be out west from the picture background. Wish it were closer.
