4179-PHX 1968 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

First-year C3 generation makes its mark with this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette dressed in Rally Red. A true milestone in American automotive design, featuring clean lines and bold contours that would influence sports cars for a decade to follow. The exterior is enhanced with classic 15" steel wheels topped with beauty rings and center caps, while a white vinyl convertible top adds visual contrast. A luggage rack mounted on the rear deck gives extra utility, and the BFG radial TA tires sized at 235/60R15 provide ample contact patch with the road. The driver's side mirror gives good rearward visibility while maintaining the sleek profile of this American icon.

Red vinyl wraps the interior from door to door, creating a sporty visual package. The bucket seats offer good lateral support during cornering while maintaining period look. A floor-mounted shifter for the 4-speed manual transmission sits in the center console within easy reach. The RetroSound radio with auxiliary input brings modern audio compatibility without sacrificing factory appearance, complemented by speakers in the rear. The dash retains its clean layout with all gauges clearly visible. Door panels remain in good condition. Power steering reduces effort during maneuvers, making city driving more comfortable.

Original numbers-matching 327 cubic inch V8 engine with HT suffix code generates 350 horsepower, flowing through the authentic Muncie 4-speed manual transmission. A Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor handles fuel mixture duties efficiently. MSD components upgrade the ignition system for increased reliability. The independent front suspension with control arms and coil springs works in conjunction with the independent rear suspension. Four-wheel disc brakes provide stopping power. Dual exhaust with FlowMaster mufflers produces an appropriate soundtrack. Additional mechanical upgrades include a newer radiator, fan with clutch, and new water pump.
