Welcome Gary

You have an L36 Singray.  Good for you.  Tell us something about the condition and your plans for it.  Post a picture when you get a chance.

Vette(s): 1969 Stingray Coupe. 427/390
Just brought it home the beginning of the month.  I'd say it's probably 85-90% restored, numbers matching.  A few things to work on, but that's fine with me, gives me time to learn the car and read up on a few forums.  Right now, just ordering the things I know I need and what I might need.  I'm sure I'll have a "few" questions for the pro's here once I get into it all a little deeper.
 
Thanks!

Before You get to far into it.  There is nothing like the Factory service and maintenance manuals.  Most if not all of the aftermarket generic maintenance manuals leave a lot to be desired.  

Mitchell manuals are an exception if you can find them. 

Ecker offers a CD 
ebay has some also

http://www.ebay.com/sch/Parts-Accessories-/6028/i.html?_nkw=service+manual+69+chevrolet+corvette&_vxp=mtr&_rdc=1

I purchased a number of repair manuals before someone on this forum provided a link to the manufactures manual.  I know that my 82 with the Crossfire is different from a lot of similar vettes 78 -81 but they all have their one of a kind things I'm sure.  

Any way unless a more knowledgeable 69 vette guy says differently My first purchase would be the factory manual.
