Car history: |
The order for this car was placed through Paulos Auto Company, a Chevrolet-Oldsmobile dealer in Magna, Utah on November 15, 1967. Carl Schettler, of Salt Lake City, received the Corvette as a college graduation gift from his father. Schettler specified a Rally Red exterior and black interior, along with the L88 engine. In addition, GM required all L88 purchasers to include the M22 rock crusher four-speed manual transmission, the J50/J56 heavy-duty power four-wheel disc brakes, G81 4:11 posi-traction rear, F41 special purpose suspension, an N11 off-road exhaust, and a transistorized ignition at a total cost of $5,589. Original order for the car and the tank sticker confirm the equipment ordered on this special Corvette; the car also retains its original 1968 Owners Manual. |
