NUMBERS MATCHING, RESTORED TO NCRS TOP FLIGHT LEVEL, RARE COLOR, AWESOME EXAMPLE
Great original colors, a numbers-matching 427 cubic inch V8 with Tri-Power, and a numbers-matching Muncie 4-speed, is there anything else you could want in a Corvette? Oh, and it was also restored to an insanely high, museum quality level. Chrome bumper Corvettes simply don't get better than this.
I mentioned this was the best of the best, didn't I? Repainted back to the rare and correct Corvette Bronze finish it was born with, this early C3 looks fantastic today. We'll call it a 9.5, simply because nothing in this world is perfect. This rare color combination will never go out of style and unlike so many other cars from the late 60s, it doesn't have a dated look. Instead, the deep shine accentuates the all-new C3 look, which is particularly appealing with the big block hood and top that goes down. For many, the early chrome bumper cars are the ones to own, and the bright stuff on this car is as close to perfectly finished as you can get, and all of it is original to the car. The result of all that pain-staking, open-checkbook work is a show-stopping Corvette that's the best you'll ever see.

While the white roof is attractive, a convertible is meant to be open to the world. And the bronze-on-dark orange combo the interior gives this a true red-blooded American a sophisticated style. The restoration kept an eye on making sure this had a period-correct style. But you can also tell the investment here wanted to keep this looking sharp with features like newer carpeting and seat covers. This Stingray was built to be a true driver's machine. That's why you have a clear view to the large speedo and tach, and the full auxiliary gauge setup is directly to the side at eye-level. And the bright stick shift is just calling out to your right hand.
Under that iconic hood is the car's original L71 427 cubic inch V8, and it's curious how Chevrolet offered a handful of different 427s, including two with Tri-Power induction like this one. It's street-friendly with great throttle response and bottomless reserves of torque, which is why you buy a 427 in the first place. The engine bay is nicely dressed in a correct triangular air cleaner and chrome valve covers over a Chevy Orange engine block. As you might expect, it runs superbly, particularly with well-tuned carbs and a responsive distributor, and everything is stock right down to the exhaust manifolds. The Muncie M21 4-speed manual gearbox and rear end are also original, numbers-matching pieces, and if you're looking around under there, please note that the true-dual exhaust system is brand new, the power steering system works well, and there's barely any evidence that this car has ever been outside of a trailer. Finishing off the correct look is a set of Rally wheels with red-line tires all around.
To further add to the lore of this car it comes with a huge binder of receipts, and a 1968 Corvette assembly manual with build pictures, this is a top-of-the-line big block 'Vette with so much to offer. Call today!
