Is this 1969 Corvette Stingray C3 the BEST generation?

The 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was the second year of the C3 generation of Corvettes. Under the hood is a 350ci V8 with a nice balanced 350 HP connected to 4 speed gearbox. Why is the C3 Corvette the longest running generation? Find out all the details!

Pinnacle of the C3. Last of the high compression 427.

I was searching your reviews and found this one on the 1969 Corvette. I will never forget the first C3 I saw; a new '68 427 just purchased by my next-door neighbor's friend. It was so different and beautiful. In those days the Corvette featured new GM technologies before they appeared on other cars. I still own my C3 coupe; a 72 model. I will present a different opinion pertaining to the side vents. They are functional. They were added during development when it was found the nose wanted to lift at high speeds. They allow air to exit from the under-hood area and thus reduce the lift.

I love the contours on corvettes. It's why it's my dream car.

The front three gills on the ‘68 & ‘69 C3 Corvettes are functional. Honest!

I traded my 2012 dodge Cummins 3500 for a 69 C3 lemans blue with blue interior white top with matching blue hardtop. 427/390 4 speed and it’s absolutely mint. I’ll never sell it! New subscriber here.

One of the sharpest models out there....hands down in my opinion. Not much beats it in my eyes. Nice choice for those who choose em. 😍😍😍😍😍

The C3's were technological dinosaurs (even back then), and rust buckets (the birdcage) but those lines never ever get old....good video Joe

My dream car when I was a kid! Great video Joe! That front end is just perfect, tiny chrome bumper!

C-3 are my favorites; especially before the domed rear window.

I love this true classic!! Thanks for the awesome video guys!!! So awesome you got a c3 this clean!

[peterhanson]

That is a pretty Vette. I love that steering wheel and the side pipes on that beauty. Glad to see that ugly luggage rack wasn't put on it.

The Corvette c3 is a masterpiece of art on four wheels!!

I'm holding out for a c3 blue t top manual. I'd sell all my cars for that

[michaeljordan]

It's a beautiful Corvette. The color, hood and wheels on this car are perfect.
My favorite is the 66 or 67 big block which is an awful daily driver and after that I'm a C4 guy.
