Found this this week in Okla City he ran a add on craiglist and i was the first to respond 69 corvette 427 needing restored $12,500 with a few new parts
Well i picked it up for 11k and the few new parts turned out after inventory to be $13,500 worth of parts the car has been in storage for the last 20 yr,s
It only has 39k on the meter i will be doing a frame off on this one there is no rust at all anywhere

Cool find!

So your going to restore it to original or with mods?

[hardtime19]

There are a few mods there for the car like the racing heads and a offroad crank and pistons and cam w/roller bearing and the hooker headers
But my my aim is to make it just like it came from the factory. it is just to nice a find to mod out. It is all numbers matching now and the mods would just ruin that at my age (70) speed is not needed I have (4) vetts now, but this has been my dream car ever since i got back from Vietnam

400 horse air car is a fantastic find, especially in that condition at that price.
