$49,990

THE VETTE NET is a professional Corvette brokerage network and proud Lifetime Business Member of the National Corvette Museum. We are pleased to present this truly exceptional, one-family-owned 1968 Corvette Convertible, beautifully finished in timeless LeMans Blue and powered by its factory-rated 327/350 HP L79 mated to a crisp 4-speed manual gearbox. Some Corvettes are bought and sold. This one has been kept. For its entire life, this 1968 Shark remained in the care of a single family and has actual 44K miles with only 1500 since restored. When the time came to give it the treatment it rightfully earned, they took no shortcuts. Over a meticulous six-year, comprehensive frame-off restoration—thoroughly photographed at every milestone—they preserved the soul of this classic while executing mechanical and cosmetic perfection throughout. Restoration & Mechanicals (check out gallery for over 70 pics) Chassis & Suspension: Stripped down to bare fiberglass with every original body panel intact. The chassis was disassembled down to the bare perimeter frame, inspected, and professionally powder-coated. The front and rear suspension were rebuilt with new bushings, ball joints, and wheel bearings throughout. Powertrain: The numbers-matching 327 ci / 350 HP L79 small-block V8 was completely rebuilt to factory spec, delivering the high-revving muscle and distinct soundtrack that made the L79 legendary. The original 4-speed manual was fully inspected, refreshed, and resealed. Power meets the pavement through a stout 3.70 rear gear—the sweet spot between off-the-line launch and backroad carving. Modern Comfort & Cruisability: Mindfully upgraded with modern power steering, power disc brakes, and integrated Vintage Air conditioning, making it just as effortless and comfortable on a 90-degree July afternoon as it is on an October morning cruise. Rolling Stock & Weather Gear: Rides on BF Goodrich redline radials sourced from Coker Tire, perfectly capturing the original late-sixties stance. Complete with both tops—a clean soft top and the factory hardtop—giving you full open-air motoring or the quiet, clean roofline of a coupe. Current Condition: Driven only ~1,500 miles since completion. Fully sorted, shaken down, and still show-floor fresh.
