My 69 Corvette 427bb

[yogurt_slinger]

I've been looking for a big block C3 vette for a while now, and I finally picked one up... I'm in love.. Nothing like a big block.
Options are, PS, PB, PW, 390hp/427bb, auto (th400) and its got sidepipes on it too.

Sorry to see you have no TM game, but being that I work with lots of BB Chevy stuff these days, I can understand the attraction. That should be a high dollar collector car right there if it's the original drivetrain.

I still have my R/T but, I'm waiting for Jackson to finish it, he's a busy man. I love the Spirit but, theres nothing like the sound of a big block.
It does have a corvette 427 but not the matching 427 which doesn't bother me. I'm not a purist, I'm more of the *restomod* type. So, it may be getting a cam, EFI(pro jection III), and heads in the future.

Hey Bryan, great looking car, love the color and the pipes! I know what you mean about the sound... one day many years ago, I put a maroon 69 with manual trans through the gears HARD running from the county cops

Congrats and post some "actions" pictures when you can

we saw it, drove it, scared me half to death, and bryan had to rub one out before he signed his life away.

So, Bryan, when you coming down and taking me for a ride?



Seriously, nice set of wheels. I have always wanted a 67 427/4 spd myself.

Not the first time I've bought a car without seeing it in person but it is the most expensive for sure.. The seller was pretty upfront and had a good rep. He sells quite a few vettes most of which I've been following on ebay the last few months so, I was pretty confidant in it. Of course I picked it up myself just to be sure though.



HAHAHA!! yeah its slow alright just wait until I do a few things to it, then it'll be REALLY slow

Come on over! I'm already thinking of getting another one...hehe (don't tell the wife) maybe a 327 4-speed convert.....black Thats not until I get this one where I want it.

Thanks for the koodos


Thanks
Bryan

Great looking Vette Bryan!

Beautiful color. I had a Silver '69 Roadster with both tops several
years ago. Loved it.

I wouldn't kick it out of my driveway....

C2s and C3s melike, all the other chevy parts bin specials, not so much.

Parts bin specials? Huh?

Beautiful car. The C3 vettes took a while to grow on me. Not sure why. Still not a fan of the later soft-bumper cars.

Great looking car! My dad had a late C3 when I was growing up, I've always wanted to get one.

Yah know.... I was the same way. I originally wanted a 62-65 nova or 64 mailbu but, in the last 8 months, the vettes grew on me. But only the chrome bumper cars. theres just something sexy about the bumper C3s. Wife wanted a 05-newer but, to me any yuppy with $35K can get a new one. A person with some class has an older one, one that retains or increases in value. You want *refined*, get a new one.. you want a LOUD, HARSH, MONSTER, get an old bigblock car LOVE IT.

I bet the radios in the new vettes sound awesome. My radio doesn't work in mine, I wouldn't be able to hear it over the side-piped big block anyways which is just fine with me

Hehe. Screw a stereo. A free-breathing big-block IS music.

Looks like a nice car. I always liked the way C3s look but after crawling over them and sitting in them i decided i dont like them for myself. Takes all kinds, though, and im glad somebody out there is keeping them nice like that.
