1968 Corvette Roadster 327 4 speed Convertible

Description for Chevrolet Corvette 1968

For sale is my 1968 corvette. It presently has a 1968 (3914678) 327 ci engine and 1968 Muncie 4 speed. When I bought the car in 2006 the motor installed had been freshly rebuilt. The car came with the original engine block and original automatic transmission. At that time the original carb, istributor, nd intake manifold were installed on the motor. Over the years I have removed these parts and replaced them with new parts for better performance. However knowing the value of this car as a collector I kept all of the original parts, hey are located in Middlesboro Kentucky, nd the purchaser is welcome them for the cost of freight and packaging.
