<font color="blue">Here's the flyer my buddy in Jersey sent me...his words...
"1968 Corvette L-89 427 coupe"
"This car is a body off restored numbers matching real L-89 Car. Only 624 of
these were made. It was off bodied by Tim Thorpe of Thorpe Restorations in
Ofallon, Illinois. He is a Bloomington Gold Judge. He also feels this car could
have been a C.O.P.O ( central office production order) car because of the
options that it has (who knows). I also have the tank sticker and 1 old
title.
Almost everything replaced on this engine was done by Duckworth Racing to
factory specs (uses leaded fuel).
Even though this car was restored I went over car according to the assembly
manual and purchased many parts I felt weren't quite right or not nice enough.
Example: Real G< old stock radio knobs...paid $300.00 ..... these knobs were
only used on 68 Corvettes, no other year, no other model.The list goes on and
on.....
I drive this car periodically and it is very fast and very reliable. It does
not overheat in traffic as many big block cars did.
It wins trophys..........no bragging........just fact............
$55,000 now.......will be in the 60's by the fall...............
the car is stored in an environmentally controlled garage.......
This car is a steel block, aluminum head 427 rated at 435 horsepower (tri-
power) which has actually been found to be 500 horsepower. The L-88 car had a
bit more tweaking and a huge 4 bbl carb and was 550 HP. Here are the options
this car has....4 speed, Power steering, J56 brakes (heavy duty power disc
brakes), headrest option, telescopic steering wheel, am-fm stereo radio, the
original pollution pump (not a repro), rally wheels, speedminder speedometer,
and reproduction Firestone Bias Belted redline wide oval tires (not radials,
like the originals) It is Silverstone silver with a black interior.
I have a notorized letter from Corvette Mike stating that this is a numbers
matching car...Tim Thorpe Restorations has all documentation on this car as to
it's originality. </font>
