Vehicle Description
During the muscle car era, several large dealerships produced their
own customized versions of popular performance cars, like this 1968
Corvette, badged as a GT, and now available here at Crown Concepts,
Tucson, AZ.! Examples include recognizable names like Yenko
Chevrolet, Nickey, and Baldwin Chevrolet out of Long Island NY. The
long time owner of this beauty added many of these features to this
Coupe, makes it a Clone/Tribute to a Baldwin-Motion car. And with
many of the exterior and mechanical modifications, it resemble the
very rare L88.
This Vette was originally equipped with a 327 cubic inch V8/300
horsepower, but upgraded to a 427 cubic inch/factory rated 390
horsepower. The last owner continued to improve on the power,
stating it reached 525 horsepower, which is listed on a Car Show
Poster, included with this car. It also received attention in many
areas, allowing it to be a very competitive track car over the
years, competing in Autocross and sanctioned SCCA events throughout
southwest United States. For a true Corvette enthusiast that wants
to continue competing in vintage type racing events, this is the
one to own. And because it was set up for this lifestyle, the car
has under 36,000 miles on it.
Back by a 4-speed manual transmission, you'll enjoy the power and
handling of this 2 door Hot Rod, and the comfort of a very good
interior, featuring Black Vinyl bucket seats, racing belts, and so
much more. From a very good engine compartment, with the
installation of all parts done right, to an interior that stands
out. All gauges are clear, and in excellent condition. Even the
original steering wheel is in top notch condition. The quality of
the exterior is fit and the finish is very good. Smooth body
surfaces stand out, and the paint has a very good shine and depth
overall. From front to back, top to the bottom, side to side, this
is one exceptional Corvette, and it is ready for you.
