Chevrolet Corvette 1968 Description
Shining correct color, T-tops, ultra-low mileage, and a numbers-matching 427 cubic inch V8... that's why we all love this first-year C3. This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette gets all the important stuff right and it's ready to rock without a second thought. Get in and drive!Silverstone Silver is a great color to have on a big block 'Vette. This one has been given a professional respray that really lets the precious metal finish radiate in the sunshine. Now the paint lives up to its European racetrack namesake by being both sophisticated and sporty all in its first impression. This one has been exceptionally well cared for over the years, so the clearcoat has a nice luster that accentuates the new-for-'68 body, which is particularly appealing with the big block hood. For many, the early chrome bumper cars are the ones to own, and the brightwork here is nicely finished. Top it off with a correct rally wheel package on standout redline tires, and this is the kind of car that will grab attention in even the most finicky Corvette crowds.'Vette owners are some of the most fastidious about care, and while this one is approaching the half-century mark, the mostly original interior continues to look quite nice. In fact, since this one has only averaged 900 annually over its lifetime, there has been little time to wear down the inside. The bucket seats are inviting, the carpets remain plush, and the door panels have stayed crisp so this is a well-sorted sports car. The interior is not a complete midnight experience with the shine of the three-spoke wheel and the gearshift. The driver gets the original gauge package with the large speedo and tach straight ahead. In the center is a full auxiliary readout package, heat/defrost controls, and just below that is the original AM/FM radio. But one of the best parts of this coupe are the removable T-tops and rear window... that way you can share this highly original interior with the world.Tilt the hood forward and you'll reveal the numbers-matching L36 427 cubic inch V8 that looks absolutely fresh from the factory. Everything appears correct, including the chrome valve covers, distributor shield, and stickers on the chrome air cleaner. It's a clean engine bay that you'll be proud to show off it's even a 2nd Flight NCRS car. But while we know you'll love this for the car shows, this one is also meant to be enjoyed on the open road. After all the TH400 three-speed transmission is the perfect paring to let the big block go from an easy cruiser, to a snarling beast with just the tip of a throttle. Plus, the fully independent suspension, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes keep this a superior handling classic sports car.Complete with factory buildsheet and title docs, this is the C3 that has the right look and pedigree to get all the best attention from the Corvette community. They just have to get you off the road long enough to show it off. Call now!!
