Seven Hills Motorcars - 1969 Corvette Coupe

Exterior

The LeMans Blue exterior is in very nice driver condition. As one can see in the photos the finish has dazzling gloss and smooth finish. The chrome bumpers and other bight work on the car look great with no rust, pitting, or cloudiness. Often Corvettes will have particularly chipped up front ends, this car does not. The underside of the front end, a very fragile part of the car, is in great condition as evidenced by the photos. The wheels look great and have absolutely no curb rash on the beauty rings. There are no major imperfections that have been excluded from the photos. From certain angles is appears as if the hood has been repainted. There are some small blemishes that were too faint to show up in photos, but nothing that is really noticeable from five or ten feet away. There are NO rust issues with this car. The frame is solid with no rust in front of the rear tire around the "key hole" and there no rust visible on the "A" pillar around the windshield.

The car looks just as good in person as it does in the photos.

Window Date Codes

Driver's: XV - "X" denotes February and "V" denotes 1969 meaning this piece of glass was made in February of 1969.

Passenger: VX - "V" denotes December and "X" denotes 1968 meaning this piece of glass was made in December of 1968.

Rear: JV - "J" denotes May and "V" denotes 1969 meaning this piece of glass was made in May of 1969.

Please note that all of the "Astro Ventilation" door glass on this car is date coded and original as the pieces predate the car's body build date of July 12, 1969 (L12). Original glass is a good indication that this car has had no major accident history and never sustained significant damage.

Interior

The black interior of the Corvette is also in fantastic condition. The seats show virtually no wear. They look in person just as they do in the photos, with no slits, tears, or split seams. They are not worn in the typical areas such as where the driver gets in and out. The carpet is in like new condition as well with no stains, rips, or holes. This includes the rear carpet which is often neglected. The dash and console are in great condition with no cracks or sun fading at all. The door panels are in great shape with no splits or tears. I must disclose that the seats do have the slightest tinge of cigarette smell. The aftermarket radio works well and sounds much better than the stock radio ever did. Most importantly, the console was not cut or modified for the installation.

The interior looks just as good in person as it does in the photos.

Mechanical

This car is in awesome mechanical condition and is an exceptional driver that needs nothing. It is tight on the road and at highway speeds; the car drivers terrifically. Everything on the car works. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to one side or the other. The car has a non-numbers matching Chevrolet V8 under the hood. It starts right away every time and runs well. There is no smoke when starting or driving the car. The entire vacuum system for the headlights and wipers works as it should, including the vacuum override switches. The horn works as do the headlights, interior and exterior lights, blower, and wipers. The heater core has been bypassed. All of the gauges work with the obvious exception of the clock. The only item I am aware of on the car that does not work is the fiber optic light monitoring system, which is the case with most 1968-71 Corvettes. Not enough can be said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car, especially with the 4-speed and t-tops out on a beautiful day.

Overall Condition

Overall, this 1969 Corvette is in great condition for a driver. This car is a great value and I have priced it to sell. This car always turns heads and gets ton of attentions wherever it goes. The 1969 model year is one of the most desirable and collectible for Corvettes. It is an excellent choice today and in the future as an investment. One could enjoy this vehicle for several years and sell it for more than your purchase price with minimal effort.
