Fathom Green w/Black interior, L68 427/400hp, 4-speed manual transmission.

The Corvette presented here is completely unrestored. The paint, interior, glass, chrome, etc. are all original to the car. The
engine is the correct #’s matching L68 427 cu/in 400hp big block.

This car was shown for the first time in August of 2014, where it received the N.C.R.S. Top Flight Award (Blue Ribbon). And equally important, it qualified to be judged as an unrestored Corvette at the 2015 National meet in Denver that July, where it received two stars out of a possible 4-Star Bow-Tie Award. The car was judged to be original in all four categories.

The car was purchased from the original owner in St. Paul MN. back in ’07 by a collector client of ours. And we just acquired it from its out client (the car’s second owner). And as with many vintage Corvettes, this particular ’69 has an interesting story behind it . . .

The original owner and his buddy both purchased brand-new Corvette’s upon their return from Vietnam in ’69. Together they would cruise in their cars
around the St. Paul area. Sometime in 1970, a tragedy occurred, when his buddy was killed in an accident in his Corvette.  After that, the original owner of this car lost interest and rarely drove it again. By 1974, the Corvette was put into storage and not driven again until it was purchased by its second owner.

The paperwork on this Shark is amazing, with service receipts all the way back to ’69! We even found a gas receipt from ’71 stuffed into the map pocket!

This Corvette is a true time capsule and a great running and driving car!
