The L89 was very rare, it was the same engine as the 435, except
the L89 was outfitted with Aluminum Heads which saved about 80lbs
on the front of the car. This particular example is very rare as it
is "Unrestored" as certified by its "Bloomington Gold Benchmark"
status; this means the car earned a "Bloomington Gold- Gold
Certification" and a "Bloomington Gold Survivor" award. This car
has the "Original-Born With" motor and drive-line. This car has
also earned an NCRS Top Flight and the coveted Muscle Car &
Corvette Nationals Triple Diamond Award (Car has to earn a
Bloomington Gold, NCRS Top Flight and Gold Concours).
Cars can be restored numerous times, but they are "ONLY ORIGINAL"
once! This is a great investment in an all original example or a
rare big block L89 Corvette.
