Default Thinking of picking up a 69 vette

I don't know much about this era of the vettes, but I have always liked the lines of it. It sounds like its in good shap.

Any thoughts on the price? Whats the scoop of this generation of the vetter? What block is it?

Thanks!

good cars i have had several of them, pay close attention to the frame,trailing arms and rear wheel bearings. thats the stuff that gets neglected, the brakes are another concern if the calipers have been changed to stainless steel sleeved that is a plus.
you are right about the lines of a c3 they are very sharp cars.
