1968 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster
Third generation (C3; 1968–1982)
C-550
The third generation Corvette, patterned after the Mako Shark II concept car, was introduced for the 1968 model year and was in production until 1982. C3 coupes featured the first use of T-top removable roof panels. It introduced monikers that were later revived, such as LT-1, ZR-1, Z07 and Collector Edition. In 1978, the Corvette's 25th anniversary was celebrated with a two-tone Silver Anniversary Edition and an Indy Pace Car replica edition of the C3. This was also the first time that a Corvette was used as a Pace Car for the Indianapolis 500. Engines and chassis components were mostly carried over from the C2, but the body and interior were new. This 1968 Corvette, with what is believed to be 76,900 actual miles has been carefully restored and updated with a 1969 350ci/327 hp high performance small block engine coupled to an automatic transmission. Power brakes and power steering make driving a breeze. Finished in classic red exterior with white top and black interior, and set off with bright chrome Boss wheels make for a great look. This is a well maintained, undamaged body Corvette that is a lot of fun to drive.
