This matching-numbers 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is
powered by the optional L46 350ci V8 rated at 350 horsepower and
paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, giving it the kind of
drivetrain combination that makes these chrome-bumper C3s so
desirable. Finished in Cortez Silver over a black interior, this
Corvette has a sharp, classic look and benefits from a thoughtful
blend of originality and tasteful upgrades.
The black interior presents as original and has been upgraded with
a modern Kenwood Bluetooth radio head unit for improved usability,
while the exterior was freshened in 2024 with a repaint and new
clearcoat. The car has also been updated with a Holley Sniper EFI
system, helping provide improved drivability and more consistent
performance over a traditional carbureted setup.
Additional upgrades completed in 2024 include a Borgeson power
steering unit, tilt steering column, electronic ignition, rebuilt
suspension with polyurethane bushings, new BFGoodrich tires, and a
Vintage Air climate-control system. Combined with power brakes,
these upgrades make this Corvette a much more enjoyable car to
drive while still preserving the character that makes a 1969
big-horsepower small-block 4-speed car so appealing.
This convertible is offered with both a black vinyl soft top and
the factory-painted removable hardtop, adding to its versatility
and overall appeal. The sale also includes the original 4-barrel
carburetor, original radio head unit, a binder containing photos
from a 1989 restoration, receipts from the 2024 work, and a copy of
the original GM order sheet.
With its matching-numbers L46 engine, 4-speed manual transmission,
attractive Cortez Silver over black color combination, and a strong
list of recent upgrades and documentation, this 1969 Corvette
Convertible is a well-rounded example that offers both classic
Corvette styling and improved road manners.
