One of the best classic Corvettes to get your hands on is a third-generation example. That’s because the third generation is a definitive classic, but it’s not old enough to enter the higher echelons of classic Corvette price ranges. Furthermore, the third generation comes with some truly awesome styling, a range of grunty V8s that could really make things move before the Malaise Era came about, and more creature comforts. If all that sounds appealing, here’s a pre-Malaise era 1969 Chevrolet Corvette with 63,066 miles on the clock for you to consider. We’re told that the car has undergone a frame-off restoration in 2017. Furthermore, the current owner says that this car is just 1 of 102 units from this model year with a MA6 heavy-duty clutch.
The C3 or third generation Corvette debuted in 1968, with styling inspired by the Mako Shark II concept car from a few years earlier. In fact, the C3 is pretty close to the Mako Shark II concept; something that can’t be said of many other cars. This particular 1969 Chevrolet Corvette showcases those concept car muscular flanks, twin pop-up headlamps and side air vents in a lovely shade of yellow. We’re told that the car has got a Protect O Plate as well. You’ll also be glad to note that those iconic pop-up headlamps are functional. The two-seat interior of this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette comes in black. You’ve got two comfortable leather-upholstered seats, a full gauge pack, a sporty three-spoke steering wheel, and a comfortable, ball-type gear shift knob. Then, there’s a push-button radio and a heating plus ventilation system. You’ll also likely have noted a pair of indicators beneath the radio titled Left Lamps and Right Lamps. Beneath the gear shifter is a further trio of indicators titled Left Tail Lamp, License Plate, and Right Tail Lamp. This is a really neat system that can tell you if an exterior bulb has burned out, allowing you to replace it in a timely manner and avoid getting a ticket. How does the system work? In the simplest manner possible; fiber optics from the requisite lamp to the console indicators. Now isn’t that smart thinking by Corvette engineers? Heck, the entire car is a testament to their capabilities.
Now for the most amazing bit, the 427ci V8 that powers this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette. The plaque beneath the gear lever proudly proclaims the factory-rated outputs as 435hp and 460lb-ft. That’s similar to a sixth-generation, or early seventh-generation ‘Vette! A 4-speed M21 close-ratio gearbox sends power to the rear wheels through a G81 posi-traction rear axle with a 3.36 rear axle ratio. Then, you’ve got a K66 ignition system, the aforementioned heavy-duty clutch, new brake calipers, a new fuel pump, and F41 special-purpose front and rear suspension.
Being selected as the Pace Car for the prestigious and historically significant Indy 500 is no small feat. Automakers vie for this honor, and Chevy’s Corvette has held the torch multiple times. The Corvette’s first outing as an Indy 500 Pace Car was in 1978, with the C3 generation. Then, the C4 performed pace car duties twice, in 1986 and 1995. The C5 did it twice as well, the C6 racked up a four-year streak from 2005 to 2008 and a fifth time in 2012, the C7 had four outings, and the current C8 has done it five times (discounting the electric E-Ray variant). Chevy has capitalized on these outing as well, creating limited-edition Pace Car variants for lucky customers to buy, own and drive. That’s why this particular 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car Edition is significant as it marks the start of the Corvette’s Indy 500 Pace Car journey. Only around 6,500 units were made, and this example from Pennsylvania bears just 75,249 miles so far. Snap it up, quick, because it’s a piece of history.
A third generation Chevy Corvette is an interesting classic car to own and drive. You see, introduced in 1968, it came modeled straight after a concept car and looked out of this world. Then, the Malaise Era hit in the Seventies and took down any American car with it in terms of power and performance. Despite this horrific environment, the Corvette managed to remain the fastest car in America, proudly carrying the torch of being the best home-grown performance car out there, and keeping the spirit of driving alive. Today’s 1981 Chevrolet Corvette is a fine testament to the heavy burden that the Corvette bore during those times. It’s got just under 45,000 miles on the clock and currently resides in Milford, Pennsylvania.
Chevy’s Corvette is a car that many aspire to own and drive at some point in their life. Few cars in the world, let alone America, have reached such legendary status. Few cars in the world continue for over seventy years after their introduction. The Corvette is thus one of a handful of all-time automotive greats. Made across eight generations, it’s weathered tough times and emerged victorious. Even during the dreaded Malaise Era, the Corvette was the fastest American car available at the time. Today’s 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible comes from far happier times, specifically the C6 or sixth generation of 2005-2013. The C6 saw a shift towards tauter styling, improved handling and of course, more power. Today’s 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is thus a fine example of a C6 as it bears only under 23,000 miles on its odometer. Coming with the Memory Package, Preferred Equipment Group and so much more, this Wisconsin-based Vette could be yours for the taking – if you act with speed.

Whichever you are, this 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle is a perfect pick for you. The Chevelle only saw three generations; however, it was one of Chevrolet's most successful nameplates.

It is currently located in Anderson, California, and ready to transport you back to the good old ‘60s.
Chevy’s C/K Series of pickup trucks debuted for the 1959 model year, as the successor to the Task Force line-up. For the next four decades, four generations would be made, until 2002 when the C/K Series became the Silverado that we know today. Yup, the good old Silverado comes with a fair bit of history behind it. Today’s 1985 Chevrolet C10 Restomod is a third generation example that’s been extensively resto-modded into a true head-turner. Yes, even a workmanlike truck can be made to be stunningly eye-catching and of course, deeply potent in the performance department. So join us as we take you on a whistle-stop tour of this Florida-based truck that is just a call or DM away from becoming yours if you please.

Coronet is one of those names from Dodge that the current generation won’t know about, but the previous one definitely will. This nameplate floated around Dodge’s hierarchy for a few decades, moving between the automaker’s full size and mid size offerings. It was made as a coupe, convertible, sedan, station wagon and even a elongated 8-person limousine in early iterations. Now, we’ve got a nice fifth-generation 1967 Dodge Coronet for sale, from the period when the Coronet was a midsize car. This particular car is something of a restomod and resides in Anderson, California. Oh, and it’s quite suitable to go racing in, as well as own and cherish. Let’s learn more.
Fondly known as the Goat, the Pontiac GTO is one of Pontiac’s most hallowed models from the Sixties. It was conceived as a smart way to get around a General Motors management ban on divisions competing in auto racing. Three gentlemen named Bill Collins, John Z DeLorean and Russ Gee found a way round this ban. Why not give customers a car that they can then race when and how they please? Simply focus on street performance with a healthy dose of usability tossed in, then let customers do as they please. With a name inspired by none other than the Ferrari 250 GTO of the 1950s, the Pontiac GTO was born. Today’s 1967 Pontiac GTO is from the first generation and comes with under 70,000 miles on the clock. Hence, it’s a great classic to own and love, as well as drive enthusiastically. It’s also got an interesting gearbox!
