1968 Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Lubbock, Texas, United States
1968 all numbers matching 427/390hp Corvette Sport Coupe, this car has
everything including its original spare and spare tire, recently completed a minor restoration, the rare stereo
radio was repaired and is in perfect working order. Had all the bushings replaced as they were the original factory
bushings and disintegrated when removed, the car was re-aligned and my mechanic was surprised to find that the car
had never been aligned before, the factory shims were still in place. The car was aligned and the factory shims
were saved. A number of rubber weatherstripping around the t-tops were replaced. Clock and all gauges work
perfectly, alternator is correct date code The gas tank was dropped and the there was enough of the tank sticker
remaining to confirm the 390 hp Turbo-jet engine, the M-21 close ratio transmission, positraction rear end, leather
interior, and British Green paint The original tank was removed, the sticker sealed, and a brand new tank was
installed The car also has a fuel return line, no radiator overflow tank, and 5600 redline tach, confirming the
390hp engine option.
The 18th picture is of the matching numbers transmission case Paint is in good condition, there are two small
cracks by the front passenger hood mount, but all in all good driver quality paint
This car is well optioned and as you see below, has two rare options, the rear window defrost and the factory car
alarm, all the parts for the car alarm are there, the plungers in each door, the horns in the rear wheel wells, and
the key in the rear valance, I did not have it hooked up as it has been known to drain the battery. Interestingly
the car has exhaust cutouts from a 70, it looks like they were added at some point or as a replacement but I could
not find any evidence of damage

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
