We will start off with the exterior of this Corvette. It features
one of the nicest body's we've ever seen on a C3 Vette. There's no
signs of abuse or damage and it's clear that it has always been
extremely well cared for. The fit of all the panels and doors is
stunning. This '68 is a convertible, and it comes with Both the
Hard Top that's done in body color and Soft Top that's done in
white. When it was restored, they made sure to go back with the
factory color scheme. The Le Mans Blue paint has meticulously done
leaving a stunning finish. It's been kept buffed and polished to a
deep rich shine that's slick as a ribbon. In '68 they added the
vacuum hidden wipers that are all working on this car along with
the hidden headlights. Both the front and rear bumpers on this
Chevrolet are like new and sport a brilliant shine along with the
rest of the trim and stainless. All the emblems are like new as
well from the cross flags to the 427 accents on the Big Block Hood.
To finish off the look it's sitting on the Rally Wheels with new
beauty rings, top hats and riding on Red Line Tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of this Convertible. On the
inside it's also done in the factory optioned Medium Blue.
Everything is like new, and it has the Vinyl Bucket Seats. The door
panels are near flawless from the trim to the handles and window
cranks. Inside the jams are all stunning along with the seal
plates. The carpet has been replaced and is like new as well.
Looking at the dash we can see that it's in remarkable condition
and that everything is like new from the pad to the console. All
the gauges are working as they should, and it has been upgraded
with the Digital Radio. Both bucket seats are gorgeous along with
the console that houses the four-speed shifter. Inside the cargo
area all of the carpet is equally impressive, and the rear hatch
opens and closes with ease and the convertible top release operates
with ease as well.
Finally, we will get to the heartbeat of this Chevrolet. Under the
hood everything is nicer than the day it would have come off the
showroom floors. The firewall, inner fenders, and radiator support
are all in phenomenal condition with no signs of abuse. For power
it's set up with the Matching Numbers L68 427/400HP Engine that
features the factory Tri Power Intake and the Holley Carbs, 3659 on
the ends and 4055 in the center. It's dressed in the factory style
Air Cleaner and Valve Covers. For exhaust it has the correct
Manifolds 3880827 and 3880828 with dual chambered exhaust kit that
exits out the back. This Corvette of course comes with Four Wheel
Disc Brakes and all the lines are in excellent condition. When you
look under this Vette it's clear that has never been abused. All
the frame is rock solid and in phenomenal condition. All the
suspension is in excellent condition as well and a new leaf spring
has been installed out back. The 427 engine runs through the
Matching Numbers Muncie Four Speed Trans and the factory AZ 3.55

impressive and is a blast to drive.
