First-year C3 generation makes its mark with this 1968 Chevrolet
Corvette dressed in Rally Red. A true milestone in American
automotive design, featuring clean lines and bold contours that
would influence sports cars for a decade to follow. The exterior is
enhanced with classic 15" steel wheels topped with beauty rings and
center caps, while a white vinyl convertible top adds visual
contrast. A luggage rack mounted on the rear deck gives extra
utility, and the BFG radial TA tires sized at 235/60R15 provide
ample contact patch with the road. The driver's side mirror gives
good rearward visibility while maintaining the sleek profile of
this American icon.
Red vinyl wraps the interior from door to door, creating a sporty
visual package. The bucket seats offer good lateral support during
cornering while maintaining period look. A floor-mounted shifter
for the 4-speed manual transmission sits in the center console
within easy reach. The RetroSound radio with auxiliary input brings
modern audio compatibility without sacrificing factory appearance,
complemented by speakers in the rear. The dash retains its clean
layout with all gauges clearly visible. Door panels remain in good
condition. Power steering reduces effort during maneuvers, making
city driving more comfortable.
Original numbers-matching 327 cubic inch V8 engine with HT suffix
code generates 350 horsepower, flowing through the authentic Muncie
4-speed manual transmission. A Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor
handles fuel mixture duties efficiently. MSD components upgrade the
ignition system for increased reliability. The independent front
suspension with control arms and coil springs works in conjunction
with the independent rear suspension. Four-wheel disc brakes
provide stopping power. Dual exhaust with FlowMaster mufflers
produces an appropriate soundtrack. Additional mechanical upgrades
include a newer radiator, fan with clutch, and new water pump.
