| Few vehicles symbolize childhood dreams and grown up triumphs as does the 1968 Chevrolet Corvette. The 'Mako Shark's' intro was so anticipated with enthusiasm from sports car lovers that its first glimpse to the public came from Mattel's Hot Wheels line of 1/64 scale of die cast toy cars. Two weeks later sports car enthusiasts converged on the dealerships & placed their order. The Chevrolet Corvette, the only true American sports car, represents excellence, high performance & a superb sports vehicle. The 1968 model introduced the rotating hidden head lamps that are now legendary in design & function. 327/350 HP, 4 Spd Manual Transmission, International Blue with Black Leather & White Convertible Top. By the way, & FYI, there were only 18,360 Convertibles sold in 1968. The curb presence of this American Icon does not require any introduction. On occasion you see it & wish it was yours, period. All New Wiring, New Suspension, Nardi Touring Steering Wheel, New Good Year Tires, JVC 12 Disc Changer w/ AM-FM Stereo, Orion Sub Woofer & X Gold 6" Left & Right Speakers which were Custom Installed & easily removable if desired. This 'Blue Shark' as I call it, has been well maintained, gagage kept & expertly serviced. There are a few minor cosmetic issues strictly being a stress mark on the center hood, minor chip damage to the right front nose & rear lid edge. This is truly a well kept, all matching #'s, 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible that is free from any chasis corrosion. 92,275 miles. July 28, 2008. |
