    It floors me.
    No pun intended. How does a car guy mix up a 1967 to a 1969 Corvette
    Also how can you not tell that the exhaust collectors and side pipes are aftermarket. The frame welds are not great. And where they did the cut out, they should have boxed it in even though they reinforced it further down. It just gives the vehicle more rigidity.
    They do look great though

    What a beast! That is some serious cam.
    That odometer only has 5 digits, so I bet it has rolled over at least once.
    If the clutch didn't slip it probably needs to be adjusted.
    I'd add a power booster to the brakes.
    I had a 69 Mustang Mach 1 428cj back in the early 70s. Loved street racing it. I never ran against a vette, but I beat everything else.
    I'm more into comfortable but fast German cars nowadays. 😅😂

    Nice appraisal. Nice Vette. Sounds pretty nice. Also sounds like it has an after market cam? The older vettes with side pipes usually sound crappy but this one sounds like I said pretty nice. I enjoyed your video and evaluation.

    Nothing like a 4 spd low gears and a big solid cam!! Id love to play with this one.

    Go buy a cadillac & some fruit roll ups. Tuff little hot rod for adrenaline rushes!
    Who complains its a 454 block instead of a 427? Only thing it definitely needs is a fan shroud
    Is this like an L88 or ZL1 clone

    That's not a 67 to start with. It's a 69 and it's a beauty. Every Vette should have side pipes and not one of those stupid racks on it.
    She's going to need some work though. Not too happy about the spraying the bottom like that though.

    If that’s a real L71 car then the guy that hacked it up was a moron. The original tach redlines at 6500 that was the standard tach for the L71. What a shame. The guy who did this build could have butchered up a regular 69. I wouldn’t want it.

    @mikes9939 Před 4 měsíci

    Somebody's former race car. Nothing original here at all and no way to know if the engine is correct because we didn't look at the front pad. It sure has a much bigger cam than the original solid flat tappet and the tri power is gone but the Victor Jr. runs better anyway, ask me how I know. Could be an interesting car to own if the price is right but it will be a lot lower than an original L-71 car. And it's NOT a '67 as you described at first, we'll forgive the Freudian slip however.

    a "cut up" and "modified" 69 Corvette is not worth much even if it has a 427 in it. anyone buying this car better keep it forever because finding any other buyer interested in this thing would not be easy. it is a shame what was done to this car.
