1969 phase III Corvette

[JoeC]

I looked through one box of mags and found this but it is a gold Phase III GT. I have heard that a gold/black stripe GT was sold to a pro football player (when new) whose team colors were gold and black. This may be it. On a side note the pictured small block cross ram motor was for the Motion LT1 350 1969 Z/28 Camaro " Green Meanie". You can see it in the backround of the engine photo. The Green Meanie was built after Motion saw the Car & Driver/Penske built " Blue Maxie" 1969 LT1 350 Z/28 raffle car. Joel felt the Blue Maxie was too wimpie with AC and had to build a LT1 Z/28 with more power and no AC. This Green/white stripe 69 Z/28 car used the ZL1 stlye hood which they called the "Green Meanie hood" but today most people call it the ZL1 hood.
