Introducing the third-generation Corvette, this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette C3 comes finished in black over a matching leather interior. It has been upgraded with a 355ci V8 small-block engine producing 380 horsepower, featuring Holley Sniper EFI, and paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Further enhancements include aftermarket wheels, side-exit exhaust pipes, and more. This C3 is now being offered for auction by its seller out of California.
Compared to its predecessor, the C3 boasts a completely redesigned exterior with a longer, lower, and wider stance, featuring pop-up headlights, sculpted fender flares, a sharply pointed front end, and chrome bumpers. This example has been refinished in black and includes aftermarket side-exit exhaust pipes and chrome alloy wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich T/A Sport tires from 2018. The seller notes the exterior remains in good driver-quality condition, with detailed images available in the gallery.
The cabin presents black leather-upholstered seats complemented by a color-coordinated dashboard, center console, door panels, and carpets. Equipment includes a leather-wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel, roll-up windows, a Corvette push-button stereo, and chrome trim. Additionally, the center stack displays an analog clock and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and amperage. An aftermarket stereo speaker box has also been fitted behind the seats.
Beneath the hood, a small-block Chevy 355ci V8 performance crate engine delivers a claimed output of 380 HP and 415 lb.-ft of torque to the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. A Holley Sniper EFI system and aftermarket aluminum radiator have been added.
This sale will include a clean title.

This looks like an awesome performance build! Even the roll hoops look good but I worry they may do more harm than good unless you have a helmet on or are very short. Steel bumper C3's seem to get more attractive every year.

Good looking Corvette
Just a heads up to the seller, I would highly suggest that you take some time and do some videos of this good looking Corvette
Cold start, warm engine, revs, as well as at least one driving video and a walk around
Will add a lot of velocity to your auction and bidding results
Good luck all
Pics of the soft top and EFI added. The top is new but has been primarily stored down. I will leave it up now and try it in the sun to stretch it out a bit.

Yes I will add those pictures in the next couple of days. Sorry no hard top.
Can you provide some pictures of the soft to up please? Does it come with a hard top as well?
Welcome to my third auction here on pcar. Once again I'm here to actually sell so bid to win. This is a very nice nice driver level resto with only 8000 miles on the new engine. Super fun to drive with the manual trans and sounds great too. Videos to follow soon. Mahalo
