Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 26th year in the classic and muscle car business. Chevrolet's ''halo'' car, the magnificent Corvette, has been haunting the dreams of American enthusiasts for a remarkable 71 years.

urethane front bumper met federal 5 mph impact standards, and by 1974 the handsome chrome bumpers were a thing of the past. Our beautiful Riverside Gold (980) 1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible is a fine example of this historic marque. Beneath the hood is Chevy's one-year-only L46 350ci/350hp V8. This numbers matching (VD 19S722244) successor to the beloved L79 327/350 is such an outstanding engine that Zora Arkus-Duntov, the Corvette engineer dubbed ''the father of the Corvette'', was reportedly very upset when it was cancelled the following year. Additional features include a fully independent suspension, power steering, 4-wheel disc brakes, numbers matching (VD S722244, DC PD08B) Muncie M21 close ratio 4-speed manual transmission, auxiliary hard top, AM/FM radio, luggage rack, correct paint and trim codes (PNT 980, TR ZQ4), and appropriate red stripe tires (215/70R15) wrapped around rally wheels. This car is an absolute jewel that's thrilling to drive, gorgeous to look at, and surely a good investment.
