Vehicle Description
1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible - TriPower - 427ci V8 -
Original Color of International Blue - Power Brakes - Power
Steering Garage Kept Motors is pleased to offer this handsome
chrome-bumper C3 for consideration. 1968 marked the first year of
the third generation Corvette and is considered among many Corvette
enthusiasts to be one of the most beautiful Corvette body styles.
This particular car is in awesome condition with the current owner
acquiring the vehicle in 2005. The car has an original look to it
with just a few tasteful modifications that those eagle-eyed
Corvette enthusiasts may notice. The car shows extremely well as
many of the usual (and easily noticeable) points on the C3
Corvettes that show wear or age are in great condition. This
Corvette is finished in factory correct International Blue (code
990) over the correct Blue Vinyl interior. We dare say that the
exterior is in excellent condition, which is not a term that we
like to use, and we don't use it often. The usual C3 Vette
blemishes like scratches on chrome and tail light trim, scratched
door handle plates, and ill-fitting rear decklid vents are not
issues on this car. Body panels line up just as they should, and
the paint is glossy, showing depth in the clearcoat. Inside the car
is a factory correct Blue Vinyl interior (code 414) that is in
awesome condition. Just as the exterior is in amazing condition,
this interior has been meticulously restored and maintained. Seats
are free of wear on bolsters, the many gauges on the dashboard are
clear, center console trim is in great condition, and door panels
are in excellent condition. Under the hood, you'll find the numbers
matching, 400 horsepower, Tri-Power, 427ci V8 engine, which was a
factory upgrade from the base engine offering. Checking the engine
upgrade box when ordering the car was most definitely worth it!
Gear selection is handled by a 3 speed automatic transmission. Side
pipes were added when the car was restored, which look great, and
the sound emanating from them when going through the gears is
awesome! This is a beautiful Corvette that is a first year of the
C3 car. Chrome bumpers, 427 V8, awesome paint and body, and
International blue paint are just a few of the positives on this
car. It won't last long, so act today. Be sure to check out all the
