very cool, cant beat the sound of those big blocks.. A very desirable corvette. looks clean, Suspion tune up and set of Michleans on those stock rally wheels came to my mind. Value can only go up. wow
Hi Phillip, I never knew the relationship between the Apollo Astronauts and the 1969 Corvette C3 Stingray. That Gold color looks really sharp in the Sunshine. How do you keep the Engine Compartment looking like it is brand new out of the Showroom? There aren't even any water spots on the Silver Air Filter cover if it was recently washed. How do you afford Auto Insurance for your fleet of cars? Seems like it would be expensive keeping them insured year around. With the Corvette you probably store it over the Winter months. For living in Germany your English is excellent. Were one of your parents American as you don't have too much of a German accent? Some German people have such a strong accent and it is very noticeable they are German.
Hi Ben I really appreciate your detailed interest:) So, the engine is overhauled and modified only a few hours ago, that might be the trick.. Insurance in Germany in general is quite expensive, but classic cars instead can be insured very, very inexpensive! It’s called H- Kennzeichen. Thanks a lot for your language compliments, have no foreign relatives, but have to do with a lot of Americans in my business and also in aviation.
Yes, needs the 427 standard hood, not an L82 hood with 427 numbers. The steering wheel looks ok though, fatter than stock must feel better so that’s good. No excuse for a one tone horn.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate that
Thanx for sharing your beautiful ride!!! It has a great look and sound. Those 427's are torque monsters. What's your rear axile gear ratio?
Not sure 100%, but I think it’s 3.09 ratio
@@driven_aviator Thank you...I think you mean 3:08. :-)

What do you mean by wrong? Those things are the way I like them, so they are pretty „right“ for me.
