This low-mileage 1968 Chevrolet Corvette 327/350
HP was found in Scottsdale, Arizona and impresses with not only its rare and
desirable combination of factory options but also its amazing condition. The
appeal of a Rally Red 1968 Chevrolet Corvette 327 is unmistakable. Only the
chiseled bodylines and subtle badging are needed to tell anybody who dares mess
with a 1968 Chevrolet Corvette 327/350 HP to think twice.
The 1968 Chevrolet Corvette is what many
consider to be the ultimate sports car specification. Beyond its desirable factory equipment, trim
and original drive train is this Corvettes status as one of few that still
retain their original body panels and floors as well. The interior is highly
original, including the restored upholstery. This is a very special and perhaps
unique example of one of the rarest and most coveted of all muscle cars. With
its combination of factory options, originality and condition, this is one 1968
Chevrolet Corvette that would be hard to duplicate.
Asking $59,995. All offers will be considered.
