Vehicle Description
-Tuxedo Black with Black Interior, Black Soft Top, 327 V8 Engine,
4-Speed manual gearbox, restored.
1968 saw GM completely redesign the Chevrolet corvette, known as C3
generation, the body and interior were completely updated utilizing
the same chassis from the C2 corvette.
This Chevrolet Corvette convertible was purchased by the owner in
the mid-2000s, and a subsequent restoration was undertaken.
Over the next ten years of this Corvettes ownership it was treated
to much service-maintenance, upgrades and further restoration. This
included a full repaint, powder-coated frame, a new black soft top
as well as black tufted vinyl upholstery. Mechanically it received
four-wheel drilled and slotted disc brakes, 15? Ansen Sprint
wheels, uprated suspension springs/shocks/linkages and the
four-speed manual transmission was overhauled in 2021 and updated
to include a Hurst shifter. Further work included the supply and
installation of hooker headers, chrome side exhaust pipes,
Edelbrock intake manifold, MSD distributor and ignition control
unit and an aluminum radiator with dual electric cooling fans.
A labor of both passionate as well as monetary love has gone into
this Corvettes build resulting in a what is clearly wonderful
condition throughout and a Corvette that has been mechanically
sorted. Not to be missed, this Corvette C3 is complete with its
large history file and on ready to use condition.
