In my opinion the C3 with a 4speed is one of the best "Bang for your Buck'' in the collector car hobby especially the 68/69 427/390 cars, they can be kinda quirky to work on, but some knowledge from a few friends goes a long way. While I love the interior styling ,seats, dash, shifter, gauges etc... the cockpit itself is very tight . Especially if your anywhere near 6ft,200+ pounds, Im 6'3 & 250 lbs So getting in/out and even driving it comfortably was a big issue for me ,Tilt wheel is a must ,but I don't think it was even available 1968? Still one of the most FUN cars to drive that ive ever owned . The biggest draw back to me about the Corvettes are the other Corvette owners !!! some weird dudes , not you typical motorhead kind guys
