'68 Corvette Convertible, #s 427/400hp/Tri Power

[scuncio]

This car looks quite nice for the $39,900 opening bid. It's a strange market - so I doubt it will sell on Ebay, but if I were looking for one I'd have to inquire about this car.

----I'm not a 68 fan but this vert looks very nice. The double stamp appears OK, and I'm fairly sure I see the broach marks. Pad must have been rusty before it was cleaned. Tele column is a good addition, along with the speedminder speedo. Can't quite see if it has PS, but he probably would have mentioned it if it was so equipped. I often look under the hood at the rain gutter edges. If they aren't crisp and sharp, and the harness clips either aren't there or in the wrong spot I start to worry about the nose. This 68 looks good, but, as usual, eye's on it are important!!!.....Bill S

Someone put 69 or newer rallyes on it as they appear to be the 8" wide ones and not the 7" as were stock on 68 Corvettes.

think I would take a really good look at that block stamping

What makes you worry about the stamping? It looks great to me.

I can see the assembly date twice but is there a light VIN stamp also??

[AnthonyS]

Stamp looks like it's sorta double stamped - while leaning heavy to the right side - like a double tap while hitting - might've ended with a smashed finger for the stamper at Tonawonda... ow.

Just wondering if that light stamp is too close to the head to have been made by the Tonawanda gang stamp :-(

[Billohio]

I thought the same bergy

I previously had an original '69 390 car with a similar stamping.
