Absolutely gorgeous and very rare this "chrome bumper"LS 5 Corvette Roadster represents the high point in performance for the C3. This particular car still retains its original driveline incl.numbers matching engine block and G/box. Internally though there are some nice performance improvements incl. 500c.i. Crank with H beam rods and forged pistons + a nice performance cam that gives this car a note that is just music to your ears!
The original white exterior is very clean and straight with a nice shine and only the odd little stone chip here and there to speak of.On the inside the Bright Red leather trim is just stunning and as new throughout as the entire interior has been restored and looks amazing.
The car also features extensive suspension upgrades including C4 style front suspension upgrade kit and Bilstein Shocks around + box section front control arms and upgraded rear suspension components incl? new neoprene bushes throughout.
I do have a copy of the original window sticker for this car and the car is listed on the US NCRS registery. It is believed to be a "1 of 1"car as having factory A/C in a Big Block Roadster with manual trans and manual windows makes this a truly rare vehicle.
I am sure this is someone's dream car!Is that you?
Feel free to call and discuss this Classic Stingray further or give me a call and arrange a personal viewing......

$66,000

Ray, I think what Sirfixalot means was that Mrsfixalot will get everything and he will just end up with the seat belts   :nutkick:

Thanks Camo, thats good news for all C3 owners selling or thinking of selling their Corvettes... it was a very rare car, that makes a big difference... i suppose its more affordable than $110K for a 69 Tri Power or $90K  whats being asked of a NCRS Blue 72 Big Block at the moment in QLD
