1969 L89 Ragtop

L71:
Just purchased a pretty rare car
1969 L89 ragtop,auto, 6,600rpm shift kit,  3.70 rear,  according to the NCRS only 5 ragtop L89 auto,s ever built
Monza Red,  black leather,  pw,ps, tint wind,speed warning  37,000miles original
3 owner car,  never wrecked,  spoke to the original e reckons not much beat him
Original backing sheet from Harry Mann chev when he ordered it
Originally orderd it with 4 speed and side pipes but changed his mind  because his mate had  a auto L88 and reckoned the special high performance modded high shift point turbo 400 smacked everything
So it was crossed out on the form,  and went the alloy heads to keep the weight down and his mate had them on his L88
I had a auto L71 coupe 10 years ago,  regretted selling it, quick car, been looking ever since
Exactly the car i would have ordered $6,400 in 1969 , what a bargain

i only use it as an indication of whats there and what isnt , ive owned 7 x 435 cars , only ever judged one of them , that was enough
this baby is getting headers , wide tyres ,ralley wheels with no trim rings lowered , done up nastalia , like it would have been drag raced in the 70,s
