I've only had my car for a few weeks, but I also found some stuff behind the seats. Thats one expensive roof panel. I havent found a window sticker yet though

I missed this, your car had a 5.7L motor. That is a rare one.
They didn't make many 89 vettes with that powerplant.

Nice find!!!! I only found some McDonald's fries around my seats when i bought mine.

I think there's a website or service out there that can reproduce window stickers for specific cars. not sure Anyone else remember seeing what i'm talking about or am i just going crazy?

Yes, they can. I think the window sticker I have is a repo, I could be wrong.

I'm pretty sure the museum can do it for you?

Im guessing the original owner I bought it from ditched the hardtop, he was a big dude, probably 6'5" and close to 300. Wish I had it, the blue top is getting pretty crappy looking these days.

Only if you sell it on Ebay! Hell, you've got a ZR1 too, you're probably already an uppity ****!

That was like finding hidden treasure!

Under Standard Equiptment, second column, says one piece removeable fiberglass roof, Im assuming it came on the car and the blue roof was in the hatch? I could see the original owner not using it as he was taller than me and my head a almost touches the roof
Or was that standard, but this one just came with the blue roof, just like it says cloth seats and in the option category it says leather? Not sure.

the window sticker shown in the picture above is for a car that had a blue roof replace the solid lift-off panel, not two tops for the car.

The two top option was C2L and was just over $900 (MSRP) vs. a bit over $600 for the tinted panel.

Yes, options take the place of standard equipment.

I think I found some extremely old onion rings and about $10.00 in change under my drivers seat last night. The prior owner must have had a wife like mine (She carries only large bills and no change) there was only 35 cents under the pass seat.


I think if you register with the corvette museum websight they have a deal where you can get reproduced window stickers based on your VIN
