Re: 1969 427 Vette Project
The car will have the original white top again if we paint it silver. The car still has its orig dated rally wheels and orig white lettered spare.

Re: 1969 427 Vette Project
The car was optioned like a L71 427-435hp car. It has the 4:11 gears, trans ign, F41 susp, heavy duty clutch, speed warning, M-21 but is only a L36 427-390. The orig owner must have ran out of money when he got to the engine order box. He must have fell about $215 bucks short on the L71 and bout $800 of the L88 haha.

Re: 1969 427 Vette Project
Great car!
My $.02 worth is lose the rack, paint it silver, put the white top back on. That color combo will be killer! Even though I really don't care, it will be original too.

Re: 1969 427 Vette Project
I've never seen a non-solid lifter big block (ZR1 excluded)with F-41 suspension. I'm not saying it didn't happen, but I've never seen this option on a 390 horse 427. I didn't think that the 4:11 gear was available with the 390 horse motor. Does the car have a tank sticker? If factory optioned the way you state, it has everything a 435 could have. It looks like a 6,500 RPM redline on the tach. Are you sure it wasn't a 435 HP car? Is the engine in the car the original engine?
