1969 Corvette L46 350/350HP
 

Seriously looking for a nice driver,does not need to be perfect, But prefer original unrestored car, Will consider a coupe or a hard top roadster ! in any color ! must be 4spd !!! thanks 717-629-2727

What is your price range?

Depends on the car ? But was thinking Mid $30's

I think you should be able to get one hell of an L46 for that price; mid thirties is big block territory.

That's what I was thinking! For a hard top roadster, A nice original / survivor in a good color , & some documentation is what I'm hopeing for, I prefer the small block over the 390 hp BB, So I'm realistic on finding something in this price range ?

I have seen some nice L46's lately and FWIW 69 is the best year of the C3's.
I wish I had never sold my 69 Daytona Yellow L46 coupe.

I mentioned your search to my wife regarding our 1969 L46 and she is not ready to part with it. I had tossed the idea around since I don't drive it that often. I am sure you'll be able to find a great car in that price range.

would love to see it ,any pics?

This is one I just ran across not an ac car, 26k one repaint - however it's red roadster and the engine compartment looks pretty original... minus the master cyl.
606-297-150six or 606-792-833three.
This car should be looked at the tub appears to show original grease pencil marks under the rood grime...

I know you would really like one with an original engine. However if you find the otherwise perfect car built after Oct. 17, 1969, I have an original L-46 short block stamped V1017HW, meaning L-46 without air conditioning.

I have looked closely at the rough area down by the starter with a jeweler's lupe, and there is no partial VIN. So, neither you, nor anyone would know for sure it isn't the original engine. Not insinuating that you could REPRESENT it that way, but it would be the second best to an all numbers car. Engine is strong, but needs the heads rebuilt. I was anxious to get it together, and just slapped the used heads on there without even valve seals. True 2.02 heads, but I want to keep them for another project. Can't even remember if they are the originals for this short block.

Here is an original paint 70 L46 M21 coupe with paperwork for 14k

Thanks for all the leads & private messages , I ended up finding very original, 1968,paint,interior, drivetrain 427 Coupe, 86,000 original miles, in Safari Yellow for way below my set budget ! The best part was talking & taking the time to get to know the seller/owner. At the end of the day he said he wanted me to have the car, because everything everybody else picked apart on the car, the less than show quality original paint,un detailed engine compartment etc... is exactly what I loved about the car . He told me after owning & enjoying the car for 29 years. "Its not always about the money " Life is good !!!

Congrats.

Good stuff Jeff... Pleasure meeting you at Joe's shop too. Congrats!

Glad you found one under budget and over optioned (if that can be)... congrats can't wait to see photos.

Thanks Dan for all your knowledge & help !!! Def made it a whole lot easier to know what to look for & what to pay . I'm pretty stoked ! Should be a fun car ?

Congratulations. Post up some pics as I'm sure we'd all love to see your new car.
