1969 Chevrolet Corvette L88 Coupe

First time offered for sale and ready for NCRS judging under your name! This car has gone thru a complete nut and bolt body-off restoration. Odometer reads 18,538 original miles. This car has never yet been shown at any car shows.
Original selling dealer was Bob Robertson Chevrolet in Houston TX and this car was in Texas until 2008 when it was purchased and brought to Minnesota. It has the original front coil springs, shocks, and rear spring. These are normal things that would be changed, but not for this car. This L88 had a beautiful Texas frame with all the components still there and in excellent condition. Lots of pictures available from before the frame was taken apart.

​This car comes with the NCRS SHIPPING data record listing build date of Mar. 12, 1969. There is also a 3-ring binder of owner history and information on the car, including a copy of the Texas title before it was transferred to Minnesota. History and photos are available going back to 1980 including a classified ad from the Houston Chronicle dated Wed., Oct. 31, 1979.
