22-Years-Owned 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

Description

Introduced for 1968, the third-generation Corvette, commonly known as the C3, brought dramatic styling inspired by Chevrolet's Mako Shark II concept while retaining the sports car performance that had defined the model since its debut. As the inaugural model year for the C3 generation, 1968 Corvettes featured distinctive chrome bumpers, a removable roof panel design, and styling cues that would define the Corvette through the ‘70s. 

Acquired by the seller in 2004, this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is powered by its numbers-matching 327ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Finished in Rally Red over a reupholstered red vinyl interior, the car is equipped with removable T-top roof panels, a luggage rack, rally-style wheels and four-wheel disc brakes said to have been serviced with replacement of the master cylinder and calipers.

This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is now offered with an owner's manual and a clean Kansas title in the seller's name.
