For Sale: 1968 Chevrolet Corvette in Statesville, North Carolina

Vehicle Description

HIGHLIGHTS: • Finished in eye-catching LeMans Blue with matching blue interior • 327ci V8 engine mated to a 4-speed manual transmission • Power steering, power disc brakes, and Vintage Air A/C • Chrome sidepipes, 18"" rally-style wheels, and a killer exhaust sound! • Retro-modern stereo with upgraded rear speaker pod • A driver-focused classic with show-stopping curb appeal! BODY OVERVIEW: The long, low, and unmistakable silhouette of the early C3 Corvette is iconic, and this example captures that presence with style. The body is straight, well-aligned, and presents just the way a properly appointed classic should-bold, aggressive, and timeless. Chrome sidepipes add muscle car swagger and auditory satisfaction, while the 18" rally-style wheels are just the cherry on top! PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: LeMans Blue is the star of the show here. The finish looks fantastic in the sunlight and will turn heads wherever you go. While not a fresh out of the booth respray, it shows beautifully with only minor imperfections from regular use. It's a car you won't be afraid to drive or show off-no trailer required. INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: The matching blue vinyl interior is both vibrant and nostalgic, and pairs beautifully with the lustrous blue exterior. The black cloth convertible top complements the color scheme nicely and provides a cleaner, more modern appearance than the factory vinyl top. A retro-modern stereo system and upgraded speaker pod blend classic looks with modern sound, making this cockpit a great place to enjoy any cruise! A tasteful aftermarket steering wheel has been added to flow with the retro-modern theme. MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: This '68 packs a 327 V8 backed by a 4-speed manual transmission for that proper Corvette experience. A driver's car for sure! Enhancements like MSD ignition coil, Accel plug wires, headers, and chrome sidepipes bring a little more show, and a little more go. Power steering and power disc brakes make it comfortable to drive, and Vintage Air A/C keeps things cool when the top is up. The car runs strong and sounds fantastic! WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: • Stunning LeMans Blue paint and matching interior • Proper small-block V8 + 4-speed manual for maximum smiles per gallon • Chrome sidepipes make all the right noises • First-year C3 convertible is just plain cool! WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: • Not a nut-and-bolt restoration-this one's been driven and enjoyed, and was never meant to be judged • A few non-functional accessories (blower motor, wipers, horn) • Purists may turn up their noses at the upgrades DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? The blower motor, wipers, and horn are not operational. Please see Does It Work list at the bottom of this ad. WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? This Corvette is perfect for the enthusiast who wants classic C3 looks, isn't picky about originality, wants an aggressive sound and drivability upgrades-an owner who wants to clock some miles, and wants to stand out at the local cruise-in. It's a head-turner with just the right amount of attitude!
