Chevrolet’s Corvette model is a hallowed nameplate that is well sought after and admired by enthusiasts, collectors, and the general public alike. The model is currently on its eighth generation, with a myriad of special editions and exclusives along the way. From the Corvette’s long production history, the 3rd generation, which was called the Chevrolet Corvette C3 was produced from 1967 to 1982, and is a much sought-after American classic. Our subject vehicle is an artfully restored 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible from Texas which reportedly has just 10,000 miles after restoration.
Exterior and Interior
This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible has been repainted 7 years ago during its restoration to this color specification which is the famous and eye-catching Safari Yellow. 5-spoke retro wheels from Cragar Wheels adorn this car and complement its muscular design. All exterior badges and signals are in place, and polished to a mirror shine including the chrome parts. The car's distinctive shark gills on the sides are highly visible, a homage to the ‘Mako Shark’ concept car that inspired this generation of Corvette. Considering that this car is a convertible, the original hardtop in matching Safari Yellow is included with the sale. The interior of this Corvette is finished off in black leather. The car is reported to sport the factory A/C unit. Adorning the interior is the timeless Chevrolet 3-spoke steering wheel with the Chevrolet logo in the middle. The center console hosts a slew of gauges along with the Corvette labeled radio/cassette player. Factory power windows are present. It is said that all the electrical items were re-done during the restoration and are in functioning order, including the windshield wipers and blinkers.
Engine
The 1968 Chevrolet Corvette convertible is said to have a numbers-matching motor and transmission. While the C3 generation had many options for the powertrain, this factory automatic Corvette is equipped with the original 327ci 5.4L V8 motor that is rated to put out 300hp, and mated to a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic transmission. Stopping power is courtesy of a four-wheel disc brake system, and grip is provided by a set of new Cooper Cobra Radial tires. Suspension is a fully independent set-up and power steering is present to aid with maneuvering.
The 1986 Chevrolet Corvette represents one of the defining early years of the C4 generation, when Chevrolet pushed the Corvette further into the modern performance era with digital instrumentation, aerodynamic styling, and Tuned Port Injection V8 power. Showing 99,665 miles, this example is finished in Black over a Red leather interior, a classic combination that suits the C4’s sharp, low-slung profile especially well. Its 5.7L L98 V8 is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, while features such as the removable targa roof panel, digital gauge cluster, Delco-Bose audio system, and power-adjustable sport seats give it the period-correct mix of technology and grand-touring comfort that made the C4 such a major step forward for the Corvette.
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.
Few American performance cars have the visual drama of an early C3 Corvette, and this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod adds a serious dose of big-block attitude to that already iconic shape. Showing approximately 58,617 miles, it wears Tuxedo Black over a Black interior and keeps the unmistakable low-slung proportions, removable T-tops, and cockpit-style cabin that made the third-generation Corvette such a standout. The real story, though, is under the hood, where a 467ci V8 built from a 454ci block brings the car well beyond factory specification. With the current owner reporting 609 HP and 597 LB-FT of torque on 91 octane, this is the kind of Corvette built for someone who wants classic C3 style with considerably more muscle behind the throttle.

This 1972 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that proves you do not need stripes, spoilers, or a big-block badge to have genuine muscle-era appeal. Showing approximately 53,285 miles, it pairs a 307ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic, giving it the easygoing, torque-rich feel of a traditional small-block Chevy cruiser. The custom orange finish gives the car plenty of presence, while Rally-style wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make the package feel especially usable. It is a clean, straightforward Nova built around the formula enthusiasts still appreciate today: V8 power, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and unmistakable early-1970s Chevrolet styling.
