By 1968, the Corvette had run for two generations and the third generation made its appearance. Sadly, most of the third generation, which spanned 1968 to 1980 would see the worst of the Malaise Era and emissions controls. Power outputs would be severely constricted as a result. This is why pre-1973 cars such as this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray are comparatively desirable to their younger brethren. This particular example has done a light for its age 79,899 miles and appears to be a well-kept example.
The third generation Corvette would see a radical new styling direction by Bill Mitchell and Zora Arkus-Duntov. Modeled after a concept car by Larry Shinoda called the Mako Shark, the bulbous fenders, and muscular outlook would set it apart from the second, as well as fourth generations. This 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray comes with a dark blue paintjob and polished silver rims that play host to suitably meaty BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The pop-up headlamps on the C3 are present and correct, and take a moment to note the semi-podded appearance of the double headlamps, as well as the fact that they can be partially viewed through the grille when lowered. Further details include the white detailing on the inner parts of the side vents, the iconic Chevrolet logo, and the Stingray badging, which on the third generation onwards, became one word rather than two. The black two-seat interior of this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray appears in similarly good condition, and appears as period correct as possible. Purists will note the push-button radio, original gauges, and the little indicators in the cabin that alert the driver if a tail lamp or license plate lamp is out. The center console hosts a plaque with the engine power and torque figures, as well as switches for the power windows.
As the plaque on the center console informs us, this 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray packs a 350ci V8 that was factory rated for 350hp and 380lb-ft, with a 11:1 compression ratio. This is one of the major reasons why early third-gen ‘Vettes are so desirable, as by 1975, the 350ci was strangled to its lowest output of just 165hp! A Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed automatic gearbox handles power transfer to the rear wheels.
A first-generation Chevy Corvette is a fantastic car to own and drive. It’s a piece of American automotive history, after all. Produced between 1953 and 1962, over 69,000 were made. It was also the only Corvette era to come with a six-cylinder engine choice, something that Chevy quickly realized didn’t suit a flagship sports car. Thankfully, all Corvettes thereafter have packed a V8. Many people nowadays want an original first-gen Corvette, but there are some who love restomods. If that sounds familiar, have we got the car for you! Say Howdy to this Pennsylvania-based 1960 Chevrolet Corvette LS3 Restomod that’s got just 1,000 miles after its comprehensive makeover. There’s a lot to learn about this car, so let us give you the highlights, but don’t forget to shoot us a DM or give us an old-fashioned phone call if you’re interested.
Now in its third generation, the 1980 Chevrolet Corvette (or C3) was coming to the end of its life. But this typically American creation still had a lot to offer, with the solid underpinnings of the C3 ’Vette and the gorgeous Mako Shark II-inspired bodywork. Launched in 1968, it was still known as a serious alternative to the best that Europe had to offer. Our featured car includes a 350ci L48 V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission and features several upgrades to improve not only reliability but performance as well.
The C8 Corvette has graduated to become a proper supercar-killing mid-engine monster. But for many, the C7 Corvette is an icon in its own right. It likely is the last front-engine ’Vette, a formula that lasted seven generations. And in ZR1 guise, this 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Coupe 3ZR is every bit as formidable a package, ready to dominate the street and the track. Our featured car is reportedly a low-mileage example, with just 2,290 miles on the odometer. It’s also equipped with the 3ZR Premium Equipment Group and a host of performance-focused upgrades, making this a rare opportunity to own one of the most powerful Corvettes ever built.

Ford has the Mustang, and Chevrolet had the Camaro. Back in the ’60s, it was a winning duo for consumers, with the two frontrunners in the pony car race battling on both backroads and race tracks. Our featured 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is a fine specimen just waiting to go to a new home. It features a striking blue exterior, a well-kept black interior, and a 383ci stroker V8 under the hood. This immaculate classic has reportedly been subject to a recent motor and transmission install, which means it should offer a trouble-free ownership experience to whoever is lucky enough to take possession next.
Now in its second generation, the 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle was known as one of the most popular mid-sized cars in Chevrolet’s lineup. It featured a long hood and a short deck, and an almost fast-back-like design for the coupes. Then there was the SS. Few names in the muscle car world carry the same weight as the Chevrolet Chevelle SS. This example, finished in menacing black with bold white racing stripes, is a fully restored and upgraded tribute to American performance. With only 900 miles reported since completion, this true SS has been fitted with a host of new components, including a monstrous 402ci V8 engine, a fresh 6-speed manual transmission, and an upgraded suspension setup that makes it every bit as capable as it is aggressive.
