Background Story of this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette

Overview of 1968 Chevrolet Corvette For Sale by Owner

Ever since the internal combustion came to being and people could move about it didn’t take long for people to have the need to go faster. Over the years as cars became more common, it was becoming difficult to find one that ticked all the boxes at a wallet-friendly price, until Chevrolet introduced the Corvette back in 1953. The recipe was simple. Drop dead sexy looks and a price tag that was affordable, with its high sales figures over the years the Corvette has gone on to be an affordable classic which is steadily rising in value regardless of generation. It’s considered right up there with the American automobile greats. The C3 generation that ran between 1968 and 1982 retained the Stingray nameplate till 1976, as well as a few design cues from the C2 that preceded it. Customers could choose a convertible or coupe, and we have a 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe 540ci from Florida with just 87,000 miles on the clock. It’s had a heart transplant too, in the shape of a 540ci big-block V8 engine that’s sure to put a wide grin on your face!

Exterior and Interior

The C3 Corvette saw a new design that carried over a few cues from the C2, but also brought some macho muscular cues such as the front and rear wheel arches, with a shark-like profile. Inspired by the ‘Mako Shark’ concept created by Larry Shinoda, the C3 also retained the iconic pop-up headlamps that would become a mainstay of the Corvette until it was killed off with the C6 generation. This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe 540ci has a unique and flashy Rally Red exterior and rolls on a set of shiny chromed wheels with BFGoodrich tall-profile rubber all-round. The interior is done up in black and is reported to be mostly new. The original gauges are present and correct and are reported to be functional, except for the clock. You can also find a retro-modern style Corvette-branded radio cassette with digital display and radio presets.

Engine

This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe 540ci started life as a 427ci car with 390hp and a four-speed manual, but as the title suggests, it’s had an engine transplant and is packing a Shafiroff 540ci (8.85L) big-block V8 with a Dart-M block. This engine is reported to put out 625hp at 5,800rpm and 640lb.ft at 4,000rpm on pump gas by the manufacturer. The power goes to the rear wheels via a Tremec TKX 5-speed manual transmission with removable crossmember. A custom 3-inch exhaust allows the engine’s thunderous personality to echo all over the place, and an Aeromotive fuel tank and electric fuel pump are present to ensure that no fueling hiccups occur. Spark comes courtesy of a complete MSD ignition set. The mechanical, electrical, fuel, suspension and power brake systems are reported to be all-new, and work was performed by Kent Eismann of Eismann Corvette Center, with only about 100 miles gone by since then. There is new power steering and power disc brakes on all corners to ensure proper control and stopping power.

2007 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$33,999
SOLD

In 2005, Chevrolet revealed the all-new C6 or sixth generation Corvette. It did away with pop-up headlamps due to tightening safety regulations, but improved upon the C5 in nearly every other way. Whether it be power, performance or luxury features, the C6 represented a healthy upgrade over the C5. That’s why even today, C6 Corvettes like this 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe are considered to be a great way to sample America’s greatest home-grown sports car marque. This particular car has just 14,732 miles on the clock and comes from Colorado. It’s got the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, the Magnetic Selective Ride Control adaptive suspension system and a lovely 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood.

1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$124,999
SOLD

The second generation or C2 Chevy Corvette came in 1963, bringing that famous split-screen window to the party. Sadly it was discontinued after just one year due to rearward visibility concerns. But, the C2 also gave the Corvette things like pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Stingray badge. Hence, finding and acquiring a C2 in great condition is a very smart decision, soulfully, as well as financially. Thankfully, we’ve done the finding part for you, and present this 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible for your consideration. This sub 43,000-mile survivor car from Riverhead, New York comes with a Turbo-Jet 427ci V8 and 4-speed transmission, original keys, the original owner’s manual and even a Protect-O-Plate included with the sale.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$199,000
SOLD

The last year of C7 or seventh generation Corvette production was 2019, before the all-new C8 came with its mid-engined layout and new styling. So, if you really want to celebrate the last of the front-engined Corvettes, we have a glorious swansong up for grabs in St. Simons Island, Georgia. With a mere 1,044 miles to its name, this 2019 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible Hennessey HPE850 is a snarling 850-horsepower beast that enjoys the Hennessey Performance HPE850 package for its 6.2-liter supercharged V8. That’s not all, the car also comes with staggered Vicari alloy wheels and an XIK/ITC widebody conversion.
