| Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to digitally present this slick 1968 Corvette Convertible. 1968 was the first year for the C3 or third generation of, "America's sportscar," and this one has it all. A triple black, chrome bumper, side pipe, 4-speed, are you kidding me! Under the hood is a mean spirited (3914678) NM 327/350 HP L79 that was recently tuned, had the carb rebuilt, and a HEI distributor installed. Before bringing the car to us, the owner had new brakes installed, the starter replaced, a new clutch assembly installed along with new Cooper Cobras. The black paint job is so good you'd swear it was dipped which is why we parked this beauty in the main showroom here at Tampa. This '68 definitely has the right look and absolutely has the right sound. What sounds better than a Corvette with side pipes? A few side notes - The owner does have the original steering wheel that goes with the car and a new shifter boot that just needs to be installed. The wipers and blower motor are currently not working but just in case you're wondering, the headlights work great. For the money, you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer, better running and driving C3 than this black beauty. |
