LOL, thanks Richard.

Seems a little slow on this thread so I'll throw one on that's not seen every day. I parted with this car around 10 plus years ago. The restoration efforts were performed during my ownership. I believe this '70 Chevelle LS5 convertible to be one of the earliest produced with a Van Nuys build date of 12/17/69. It came with the original build sheet.....buckets and M22 equipped. I followed these particular convertible models equipped with the LS-5 for probably a dozen years through ads, etc. and found none that were fully documented with a production date earlier than this. They could be out there but I never found one with docs. I was told at one point that one of the very earliest LS-6 versions was produced one day earlier at Van Nuys as well. Don't know if that is true or not. Both the noted LS-6 one and mine were shipped to Denver but to different dealerships. I don't have the full history of our car but know it spent considerable time in CO & OK. The car still needed a very few small finishing items when I sold it. Very solid, rust free, and original for the most part. I would term it a high driver level after restoration.......too nice to drive eventually for my comfort level anyway.

Today is the birthday of my 1969 L71 Corvette.
Dec. 16, 1969
It’s a very late build, Tuxedo black car.
Apparently it was originally a Sidepipe car according to all the previous owners.
Not sure why the guy I got it from removed them.
The black and white pic is from the second owner.

Very nice 67 Vette, thanks for sharing this with us.

Tuna Joe, that '69 Vette is killer. I had a buddy in HS whose sister had a chrome bumper C3 and I loved that car; I've always loved the C3 in general, but the chrome bumpers are my favorite like most people. Can't wait to see that completed.
And to me, C3's have been criminally undervalued for so many years now.

And of course, that '67 is stunning as well.
