For Sale: 1968 Chevrolet Corvette in O'Fallon, Illinois

Our Nashville showroom digitally showcases this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette, but not just another Corvette, this one has the L71 427 cubic inch engine topped with 3 Holley� 2 barrel carburetors under the hood, pushing an advertised 435 horse power! Now I mentioned "advertised horsepower" because, the big three auto makers would during the 1960's and '70's well, kind of fib about the horsepower in order for customers to be able to get them insured. Let's face it, telling an insurance company that you just bought a 3,200-pound sports car that produced about 500 horsepower would get you nothing but a dial tone. This 1968 L 71 is the nicest example that I have seen in a long while. All dressed up in British Green with black vinyl interior this C 3 should be in the dictionary as the classic example of a late sixty's sports/muscle car. No expense was spared in the restoration of this historic car. The current owner has spent countless hours and yes dollars in disassembling, rebuilding and reassembling this car. The car was fully documented and photographed during its rebirth and is correct down to the shock which by the way are properly dated coded. This numbers matching L71 Corvette for sale is stunning and a joy to just look at, but we all know the real joy of a car like this is behind the steering wheel. Now I know a few of you will challenge all this, I welcome it, the tank sticker, photographs of the tear down and rebuild and even the cars NCRS judging sheets where it was deemed a top flight Corvette are available to prove this thoroughbred's linage. Options for this 1968 Corvette for sale features: AM/FM radio, T-Tops, Telescopic steering wheel, Seat belts, Posi traction, and bias ply tires on Rally rims.
