Roadster."Corvette '68... all different all over!". That's the
quote from the sales brochure for the redesigned 1968 Corvette. For
1968, both the Corvette body and interior were completely
redesigned. As before, the car was available in either coupe or
convertible models. A soft folding top was included with
convertibles, while an auxiliary hardtop with a glass rear window,
(included with this car), was offered at additional cost.The
enduring new body's concealed headlights moved into position via a
vacuum operated system, and the new hide-away windshield wipers
utilized a vacuum door. The door handles were flush with the top of
the doors with a separate release button. Front fenders had
functional engine cooling vents. Side vent windows were eliminated
from all models, replaced with "Astro Ventilation", a fresh air
circulation system. In the cabin, a large round speedometer and
matching tachometer were positioned in front of the driver.
Auxiliary gauges were clustered above the forward end of the
console and included oil pressure, water temperature, ammeter, fuel
gauge, and an analog clock. A fiber-optic system appeared on the
console that monitored exterior lights and there was no glove box.
The battery was relocated from the engine area to behind the seats
for improved weight distribution.For more information on this
