427/430hp, Automatic Transmission Excellent and
Very Original, Special Collection Earthquake '88,
When Corvette aficionados get together to talk
shop, the subject of classic Corvettes will
inevitably come up. When it does, it's a fair bet
that the ultimate Corvette will be a topic of
discussion. We're talking about the legendary
L-88
This monster was produced for only three years in
very limited quantities ('67-20, '68-80, 69-116)
and were strictly race cars that you could drive
(barely) on the street. The horse power rating
was
a joke and listed as 5hp under the L-71 427/435hp
engine to discourage the average buyer, who had
no
idea what this beast really was, from ordering
one. The actual horse power was closer to 560
The cars success on the track, both in the 1/4
mile (11.7 @ 120mph bone stock, even the skinny
tires) and road course speaks for itself and just
mentioning the name L88 still strikes fear in its
competitors All L88's are special, but this one
is a stand out It's one of the rarest ever
built.
One of only a 17 automatics and the only Red L88
Convertible known to exist An L88 equipped from
the factory with a Turbo 400, 3-sp automatic
transmission lent itself perfectly for the drag
strip If you add into the equation the fact that
this one's also a convertible, you end up with an
even rarer package |
