Beschreibung
-Tuxedo Black with Black Interior, Black Soft Top, 327 V8 Engine, 4-Speed manual gearbox, restored.
1968 saw GM completely redesign the Chevrolet corvette, known as C3 generation, the body and interior were completely updated utilizing the same chassis from the C2 corvette.
This Chevrolet Corvette convertible was purchased by the owner in the mid-2000s, and a subsequent restoration was undertaken.
Over the next ten years of this Corvettes ownership it was treated to much service-maintenance, upgrades and further restoration. This included a full repaint, powder-coated frame, a new black soft top as well as black tufted vinyl upholstery. Mechanically it received four-wheel drilled and slotted disc brakes, 15″ Ansen Sprint wheels, uprated suspension springs/shocks/linkages and the four-speed manual transmission was overhauled in 2021 and updated to include a Hurst shifter. Further work included the supply and installation of hooker headers, chrome side exhaust pipes, Edelbrock intake manifold, MSD distributor and ignition control unit and an aluminum radiator with dual electric cooling fans.
A labor of both passionate as well as monetary love has gone into this Corvettes build resulting in a what is clearly wonderful condition throughout and a Corvette that has been mechanically sorted. Not to be missed, this Corvette C3 is complete with its large history file and on ready to use condition.
