A CORVETTE L88 CONVERTIBLE SOLD AT A MAJOR AUCTION FOR 3.4 MILLION DOLLARS, SETTING A NEW WORLD RECORD. CLICK ON THIS LINK FOR THE ARTICLE FROM THE PUBLIC DOMAIN OF THE INTERNET: http://money.cnn.com/2013/09/11/autos/corvette-record-auction/index.html THIS IS A RARE AND UNUSUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THE CORVETTE ENTHUSIAST. PLEASE READ THE AD AND VIEW ALL THE PHOTOS TO UNDERSTAND THE COMPLETE STORY. NOTE: IF YOU ARE SEARCHING FOR A CONCOURSE, 100% CORRECT NCRS TOP FLIGHT EXAMPLE, THIS IS NOT THE CAR FOR YOU. THIS L88 IS BEING SOLD FOR A FRACTION OF THE CURRENT MARKET AND AUCTION VALUE OF A TOP FLIGHT L88 VETTE. THE REASON FOR THIS IS THAT ALTHOUGH THE NUMBERS MATCHING ENGINE BLOCK STILL RESTS IN THE ENGINE BAY, THERE ARE COMPONENTS THAT ARE NOT CORRECT TO A NCRS RESTORED L88. IT'S THAT SIMPLE. THIS BEAUTY HAS BEEN BEAUTIFULLY RESTORED, BUT IT HAS BEEN RESTORED TO AN OWNER'S PREFERENCES, AND IT IS NOT COMPLETELY CORRECT. 1152 MILES SINCE RESTORATION. PLEASE VIEW THE PHOTOS AND READ THE DESCRIPTION, THEN YOU CAN COME TO YOUR OWN CONCLUSION. CLICK ON THIS LINK FOR PHOTOS OF THE SEVEN LEAF SPRINGS, 7,000 RPM TACH, HEAD STAMP, AND ENGINE PAD: http://s514.photobucket.com/user/redeuce/library/NEW%20L88 At some point in ownership, some modifications and upgrades were made to suit the owner’s interests. These changes were made back in the day, before the market value of these vehicles skyrocketed into infinity. This is more common in the muscle car hobby than miraculously finding a 40 or 50 year old vehicle with every nut and bolt completely original after all these years. Gear heads purchased and modified them in the era. Today, hobbyists have labeled these "Day Two Restorations". That is the case with this vehicle. Then a fresh frame up was recently performed, preserving the Day Two modifications. Keep in mind we are selling this beautiful Corvette for a fraction of what a completely original example would sell for. However, the original, numbers matching engine is still installed in the vehicle. The VIN number, engine code, and build date are clearly visible on the engine pad, on the block. Look at the photos at the top of the ad to view it. Also, the block is the correct 512 casting code. Remaining options for the L88 are present on the vehicle. However, some components, including but not limited to carburetors, intake manifold, air cleaner, alternator, hose clamps, and water pump are not correct. These components are readily available, and at this price, the new owner can definitely make the car completely correct and still be way under market value. Or, since it is a freshly restored example, drive it and enjoy it as it is. Even an L88 clone or reproduction sells for more than we are asking. We believe this is the perfect opportunity for the Corvette buff. Enjoy it as is, or improve your investment by replacing the incorrect parts. We ask that interested buyers contact us for an appointment for an inspection if you have any questions or doubts, so there is no confusion. ALL LEGITIMATE TRADES WILL BE CONSIDERED. CLICK ON THIS LINK FOR A VIDEO OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE PUBLIC DOMAIN OF YOUTUBE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBysHa3k0mk Due to an extended labor strike, the 1969 Corvette build cycle was one of the longest for U.S. cars- September of 1968 until December of 1969. Serial number range 700001-738762. The VIN number for this Corvette decodes as follows- 1- Chevrolet Division 94- Corvette 37- Two Door Coupe 9- 1969 S- St. Louis, MO. Assembly Plant 726419- Sequential Serial Number Although it was one of the most aggressive, powerful vehicles ever built, the L88 was a very discreet offering by Chevrolet. Manufactured from 1967-1969, approximately 216 total units were manufactured, 116 of them in 1969. Chevrolet actually discouraged L88 orders from dealers and the public. It was developed for the track and never intended for street cruising. Many were even optioned as radio and heater delete. To qualify for SCCA A-Production and FIA GT events, the L88 had to be offered as a standard factory option, so GM quietly, almost secretly offered the car for sale to the public. Automotive icon Zora Arkus-Duntov headed the project, with motivation from legend Don Yenko and the Sunray DX Motorsports Team. The L88 was in fact first offered to teams such as Sunray DX Motorsports, for events such as Sebring and Daytona. The beast even crossed into the realm of drag racing, and was quite successful. In an unexpected twist of fate, more of these ended up on the streets in the possession of the general public than were used for the intended purposes of racing. Due to the newly enforced stringent emissions standards of the day, GM was forced to cancel the L88 after 1969. It remains today as one of the most feared and respected examples in Muscle Car era history. The average car enthusiast may believe the only difference between an L88 and a standard Corvette is in the engine bay. Of course the engine featured Cam Am spec aluminum heads, forged crank, 12.5:1 pistons, solid cam and valve train, and a 850 CFM dual feed Holley carb. The L88 included much more than just the engine upgrade. Mandatory factory upgrades included a Muncie M22 Rock Crusher or M20 Turbo Automatic, power assisted heavy duty brakes, F41 heavy duty suspension with new coil springs and dampers, G81 Posi-Traction differential, and a Cowl Induction Hood.

THERE WERE ONLY 100 OF THESE MODELS SCHEDULED FOR BUILD, AND THIS IS NUMBER 007. THIS CAR IS FEATURED IN THE CUSTOMER SECTION OF THEIR WEBSITE AND ON THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE. 306 ORIGINAL MILES. STILL COVERED UNDER 3 YEAR/36,000 MILE WARRANTY! GO ON THE INTERNET AND FIND ANOTHER ONE FOR SALE. THE LAST 2014 HPE650 CORVETTE LISTED FOR SALE, FOUND IN INTERNET ARCHIVES, WAS LISTED AT $107,000, WITH 6,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THERE ISN’T ANOTHER CORVETTE LIKE THIS, WITH THIS MILEAGE, AT THIS PRICE, ON THE PLANET. DON’T MISS AN OPPORTUNITY TO OWN THE ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE CORVETTE FOR 2014. Hennessey Performance Engineering was founded by iconic racer and tuner John Hennessey, in 1991. For almost a quarter of a century, this company has been building extremely fast automobiles. The company is located in Lonestar Motorsports Park in Sealy, Texas, which also serves as their test track. In the beginning, John Hennessey developed his own turbocharger and exhaust systems for the Mitsubishi 3000 GT that he owned. He set many speed records with this car. Forced induction was his passion, both turbochargers and superchargers. Soon, HPE started branching out to other import models. In 1993, HPE was concentrating on development of the fastest Vipers on the planet, and by 1996 began modifying Vipers exclusively. By 2004, HPE acquired Lonestar Motorsports Park, in Sealy, Texas, which served not only as the test track, but by 2008 the company headquarters. In 2008, HPE also opened the Tuner School, the first school dedicated to training high performance vehicle tuners. In 2009, HPE expanded its’ product line to GM products, the Corvette, Camaro, and the Cadillac CTS. HPE now also modifies various vehicles from Ford, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Dodge, and GMC. This full service facility offers everything from ported cylinder heads to camshaft upgrades, as well as the supercharger and turbocharger packages. HPE even modifies existing combinations. Fast forward to 2014, and the C7 Corvette story. At the Las Vegas SEMA show in 2014, Hennessey delivered a state of the aftermarket speech. In an interview afterward, he explained the reasoning behind the development of the C7 Corvette program for 2014-2015. The Z06 was the epitome of Corvette performance. However, there were none available in 2014, as Chevrolet put the car on hiatus while developing the 2015 year model. And for the 2015 model year, there would be a limited inventory available. In addition, GM was somewhat unclear in their advertising. Online and print marketing revealed a stripped down price of $78,000. However, the reality of economics, supply, and demand would come into play quickly. “Most dealers are going to be lucky if they get allocated one car and they’re gonna have a lot more orders than vehicles that they can deliver.” noted Hennessey. He also pointed out that few would be be built as base models in the upper $70’s, and most would be loaded out with the Z07 package and push the $100,000 range. To compound the problem, some dealers were charging as much as $25,000 over MSRP, bringing the possible cost to $125-$130K, and that is if you can even get one, depending on your position on the order lists. He theorized that many Corvette buyers might be disappointed. Hence, HPE developed two options for the C7 for 2014-2015 models. Limited to 100 units per package, per year, this allowed more Corvette enthusiasts to own the pinnacle of performance Corvettes. The HP650 upgrade resulted in 662 HP, and the more aggressive HPE700, peaked at 708 HP. HPE took this concept one step farther, offering three upgrade packages for the Z06. Although HPE had offered similar upgrade packages in the past, the 2014-2015 options were unique in that they actually were producing an almost direct replacement to the factory 2015 Z06. The ground pounding vehicle in this ad is number 007 of the 100 HPE650 units for 2014. The 6.2 liter LT1 is already a potent engine, and the Z51 3LT is a great performance car on its’ own merit. With the addition of the HPE upgrades, the performance and handling is equal to, or exceeds, the Z06.
