Vehicle Description
This 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Sportwagon Ecklers conversion is for
sale in our Louisville KY showroom. The 1969 Corvette arrived on
the market as the next great car. Its curvy styling and
uncomprimising body lines made the car appear bigger than life.
Ofcourse though once people bought the car and the new had worn off
everyone had the same complaint, there's no storage room. You know
they were right even though the rear appeared to have ton of room
it was unusable and as for a trunk well there wasn't one. Needless
to say in 68 one of the biggest aftermarket manufacturers of
Corvette parts came up with a solution, cut off the rear glass
section of your new Corvette and fiberglass on this piece turning
your 68 Vette into a full on wagon. as you can imagine there was
not a lot of kits sold well correction there was not a lot of kits
installed and finished. Basically once people got the kits they
would A not have the guts to cut up there Vette or B cut it up and
not be able to get the kit to fit right. Either way there are few
of these left today and with kits no longer available they are sure
to go up in value. This 68 has the coveted glassless kit with just
a rear piece to see out of. The front has had the headlights placed
actually inside the grill and the front nose smoothed over giving
the car a very slick look. The red paint looks that much nicer
especially next to the The 350 under the hood is GM replacement
motor and appears to be roughly 10 years old. The interior was
completely customized with the bucket seats covered in a type of
crush material. The door panels have been done with the same
material and all in all the interior flows nicely. The back has
been covered with a carpet from top to bottom and goes well with
the rest of the car. If you have been looking for something totally
different that you won't have to worry about seeing another at a
car show this is for you. Options on this 1969 Eckler's Conversion
