1969 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

This extremely rare Five-Star NCRS (National Corvette Restorers Society) Bowtie 1969 Big
Block Corvette 427 390 HP Automatic is truly original. For 38 years, this car was in Palo Alto,
Calif. Then in 2007, it came to Inver Grove Heights, Minn. It has 19,200 original miles with its
original Monza Red paint and standard black interior. This is a true survivor and has not been
altered in any way, other than normal maintenance. To this day, this car still maintains the
original exhaust system as well as the original spare tire.
The car is a Five-Star NCRS Bowtie Award Winner. Recent awards include:
-- Two NCRS Top Flight Awards

of 13 Bowtie Corvettes in existence.
The car starts, runs, drives and stops as it should. This is a very rare original Corvette and has all
of the original paperwork.
