Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is thrilled to offer for sale this stunning first-year 1968 Chevrolet Corvette. The automotive world was forever changed in 1968 when Chevrolet debuted the radically redesigned third-generation Corvette. Inspired by GM's Mako Shark II concept car, the new C3 body line introduced the aggressive high-fender curves, hidden vacuum-operated headlights, and aerodynamic profile that would define the look of American performance for nearly two decades. Beneath the eye-catching fiberglass exterior sits a chassis built for driving enthusiasts. Unlike the solid-axle muscle cars of its era, this Corvette utilizes a sophisticated 4-wheel independent suspension system, providing a planted, sports-car handling character that rivals vintage European tourers. Bringing this classic to a confident halt is a factory 4-wheel vented disc brake system utilizing beefy 4-piston calipers. Pop the removable roof to experience open-air motoring at its finest. Inside the redesigned cabin, you're greeted by a pilot-focused cockpit featuring a large center-mounted tachometer and speedometer right in your line of sight, accompanied by a full center console gauge cluster to keep tabs on all vital engine functions. Out back, the distinct dual exhaust system delivers a deep, vintage rumble through clean chrome tips exit-routed through the rear valence panel. Whether you are a seasoned Corvette collector looking to add a first-year C3 centerpiece to your collection or a hobbyist ready to live out your vintage sports car dreams, this 1968 Corvette deserves attention. .This vehicle can be seen in detail including 100+ HD pictures and an HD video at gatewayclassiccars.com. It is located at the Chicago Showroom, 1329 Commerce Drive, Crete, IL 60417.
