Transmission M40 Power Steering Power Brakes Louver Trim Deluxe
Wheel Covers PO2 newer RWL tires This was the signature color for
the 1969 Chevrolet Corvette. '69 was a production number due the
fact this car was so popular and they ran way over "15 months" --
Almost 39k Corvettes came down the assembly line in St. Louis that
year. Many of them were Riverside Gold, but you seldom see this
color on the re-paints any more!!! It's easy to have the caps
switched over to standard trim rings and center caps. This
particular example was purchased by a High School student right
here in Overland Park, KS at the young age of 16 (approx. 15 years
ago) He cherished and took excellent care of this (remember when
you got your first car!? How you would literally wash the paint off
of it?) It was treated with a brand new professional paint job a
few years back. The engine was rebuilt and other regular
maintenance items were addressed at that time. Unfortunately, this
young man is no longer with us. Someone else must now take over the
delicate loving care always afforded for this beautiful 1969
Corvette.
