The C3 Corvette was produced from 1968 through 1982 model years. Corvette chief Zora Arkus-Duntov wanted a striking new Corvette; although engines and chassis components were mostly carried over from the previous generation its body and interior were new. Though initially flawed the 1968 like the 1958 would improve and mature into a car precisely right for its time. The so-called Shark was produced during one of the most troubled periods in America: civil unrest burgeoning federal guidelines fuel economy and pollution regulations oil embargoes rising fuel and insurance costs runaway inflation and a lingering recession. The 1968 coupes had removable T-tops and rear window. Side vent windows were eliminated from all models. Sting Ray nameplates were absent on the new 1968 body but Chevrolet still advertised the car as a Sting Ray. This particular car is a true 46000 original mile car that comes with the correct numbers matching 427/390 horsepower V8 and automatic transmission. Finished in red with a tan soft top and black interior the car looks stunning with its original style rally wheels wrapped with white letter BF Goodrich Radial T/As. The car has gone through a mild cosmetic restoration that included new paint and tan soft top. Both of which look great. No tears to the soft top or staining to the rear window. The paint looks great with no imperfections. No stress cracks to be found anywhere on the body. Both front and rear bumpers look great and are said to be original for the car. No pitting dents or major damage on either. The same goes for the correct 2 piece rocker moldings. The interior of the car is said to be all original and in excellent condition. Both seats look great with no major wear to be found. Carpet is good as well as the dash which shows no buckling or cracking. Door panels and kick panels are all equally as nice with no major wear to be found. All gauges are in good working order as are the lights blinkers wipers horn and AM/FM radio. The only thing that we have found that does not work is the original clock. 1968 engines were carried over from the previous generation but a new optional automatic transmission was introduced. The new 3-speed Turbo Hydramatic was ordered in 5063 cars in 68 and this was one of them. Coupled with the original 427 Cu In 390hp V8 the car is a blast to drive and is full of good old American torque. The engine is original for the car (IQ) as is the 4bbl Rochester carb (7028216). The motor is very clean and unmolested. Options under the hood include power steering and power brakes. This is a very solid example of a low mileage 1968 Corvette that performs as a 46000 mile car should. The underside of the car shows no rot and is very solid with only a thin coat of undercoating. The original spare tire is still under the car! Currently the mileage shows 46924 and is said to be original for the car. VIN number is 194678S408817 and the car is being sold on a clean Illinois title.
