Fuel Required is pleased to present this rare 1968 Chevrolet
Corvette Coupe in our McDonald, PA showroom. This timeless beauty
has remained mostly original and is finished in the very desirable
Rally red paint with black interior. This Corvette is believed and
represented to be a matching numbers car. This example is powered
by the L36 427 cubic inch V8 engine coupled to a 4-speed manual
transmission. The car benefits from rare factory options such as a
telescopic steering column. The odometer reads 45,9270 miles. For
1968, both the Corvette body and interior were completely
redesigned over the 1967 model. As before, the car was available in
either coupe or convertible models, but coupe was now notchback
fitted with a near-vertical removable rear window and removable
roof panels (T-tops). The enduring new body's concealed headlights
moved into position via a vacuum operated system rather than
electrically as on the previous generation, and the new hide-away
windshield wipers utilized a problematic vacuum door. The door
handles were flush with the top of the doors with a separate
release button. Front fenders had functional engine cooling vents.
Side vent windows were eliminated from all models, replaced with
"Astro Ventilation", a fresh air circulation system. A fiber-optic
system appeared on the console that monitored exterior lights and
there was no glove box. The battery was relocated from the engine
area to one of three compartments behind the seats to improve
weight distribution. All cars ordered with a radio, like the C2
cars, continued to be fitted with chrome-plated ignition shielding
covering the distributor to reduce interference. This vehicle was
part of a well-maintained private collection. This vehicle
qualifies for a complete classic vehicle warranty up to 10
years/40,000 miles. We always recommend, welcome and encourage
personal or professional inspections of any vehicle in our
inventory prior to purchase.
