This low-mileage 1968 Chevrolet Corvette 327/350 HP was found in Scottsdale, Arizona and impresses with not only its rare and desirable combination of factory options but also its amazing condition. The appeal of a Rally Red 1968 Chevrolet Corvette 327 is unmistakable. Only the chiseled bodylines and subtle badging are needed to tell anybody who dares mess with a 1968 Chevrolet Corvette 327/350 HP to think twice.

The 1968 Chevrolet Corvette is what many consider to be the ultimate sports car specification.  Beyond its desirable factory equipment, trim and original drive train is this Corvette’s status as one of few that still retain their original body panels and floors as well. The interior is highly original, including the restored upholstery. This is a very special and perhaps unique example of one of the rarest and most coveted of all muscle cars. With its combination of factory options, originality and condition, this is one 1968 Chevrolet Corvette that would be hard to duplicate.
