One of my favorite Corvettes right there!
Absolutely! Good grief does it get any better than this?
L88 Too epic for my plebian eyes and ears.
Wow I'm shocked it didn't sell for a lot more. A documented Bloomington Gold L88?? A black '69 coupe just sold on BAT for $610k.
that was a deal!
Awesome. Love to see the C3s getting love.
SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!
Dream c3 right there.
Speechless
My favorite car period Dad had that cr when I was boy....
And yet, for a genuine L88, that seems about 1/3 of where it should actually sell.
For real. I'm shocked it "only" sold for that much. For a Bloomington Gold documented L88?
Does seem low. A black '69 coupe just sold on BAT for $610k.
Price went up fast rare rare rare
Me: Oh look, my dream car
Also me: doesn't have $300 much less $300,000
Nice.
LOVE😍😍😍
Omg...a FREE video from Motor Trend (Freiburger sucks)
I just want a 68-72 C3. But to see that sell… gonna be tough
Yeah but L88s are unicorns. The "lesser" or base models aren't terribly expensive even for a nice one.
@@sidefx996 still tougher to come across simply because that iconic chrome bumper
My neighbor had one, gave it to his son.
I'm genuinely hoping that it wasn't a l88
Seems a bit low to me actually.
It seems really low for what it is.
jelas☺️
He said 67-89 & that’s a lie they were only produced from 67-69 brah 🤥
Should have sold for at least $800,000.
First
310k for that? You can get a 69 Corvette with a 427 for like 15,000 where I live. Being a convertible definitely adds a lot of value but this shouldnt have gone over 60,000.
It's the 427 race engine not the regular one. 12.5:1 compression 550+ actual hp. It runs like garbage at idle so it's not really meant for the street. This isn't a run of the mill 427...
Oh my word that is too much money for one of those. I have nothing against the cars, in fact I rather like a corvette of that generation and a few others besides, but I'm not a car collector. I like driving. And it makes me sad to see all these amazing cars driven waaaay out of the realm of affordability for the average person. The corvette is "the peoples' sports car." Yet these vettes sell for massive 6 figure sums. Maybe the most galling thing is almost all of them, almost all of the time, will be secreted away and never driven. The owner will stand around impressing his friends with how fast that L88 "could, in theory" accelerate from a standstill.
They should be driven. They should have tiny little dings and scratches, they should be covered in bugs, you should put MILES on these things. Cars can be a great investment, if you get lucky and you wait 35 years. But property and art and firearms will always be better investments, I'm begging you if you're someone who can afford cars like this, drive the things let them get hot let them foul plugs learn to do some maintenance yourself. The first thing I would do if I bought one of these? I'd rip all the factory stickers off that I could find. I'd park it near the door at Walmart. I'd occasionally take it up a gravel road. So I wouldn't even have the temptation to think of it as an investment. I would just be so grateful I had it and drive it everywhere I could. Heck I'd let other people drive it, I'd put snow tires on it and see how a big block in a glass car handled fresh powder : D
There are tons of C3s in junk yards you can pick up for 15-20k, this however is a super rare L88 with limited production.
