Enthusiasts looking for an easy-driving C3 Corvette that still packs a potent punch might want to take a look at this 1968 convertible with a potent matching-numbers 427/390 horsepower V8 under the hood, mated with a Turbo-Hydramatic transmission.
A dealer out of Hudson, Florida (northwest of Tampa) is offering this first-year C3 on Craigslist for the asking price of $48,900.
An inspection of the more than 100 photos and seven videos of the car indicates a correct code paint job in Safari Yellow over a standard black vinyl interior, both of which look to be in excellent condition.
While some might bemoan the lack of a four-speed manual gearbox, others with a physical inability to shift gears or a preference for the convenience of an automatic might actually favor this car.
Other accommodating features include power steering, power brakes, power windows, tilt-telescopic steering column, AM/FM radio, and chrome luggage rack.
The dealer also has ownership history, the original invoice, Protect-o-Plate, and tank sticker, and extensive other paperwork.
It’s hard to go wrong with the iconic styling of the early chrome-bumper Corvettes, and when you throw in the performance of a powerful 427, well…
