"Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to present this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette, a bold and beautifully built American icon that delivers both presence and performance. Finished in a deep Dark Blue exterior and paired with a black vinyl interior, this Corvette carries an aggressive yet classic look that perfectly suits its muscle car heritage.
Under the hood lies a rebuilt 427 CID V8 L-88, pushing an impressive 435 horsepower. Paired with a rebuilt 4-speed manual ""rock crusher"" transmission, this setup offers the kind of raw, engaging driving experience that true enthusiasts crave. With only around 2,000 miles since the rebuild of both the engine and transmission, this Corvette is primed and ready for the road. Feeding that big block is an 850 Holley double pumper carburetor, ensuring strong throttle response and serious performance.
This Corvette is equipped with T-Tops, allowing you to enjoy open-air cruising whenever you choose, while power brakes provide added control and confidence. Out back, a 3.55 rear end helps put the power down effectively, making this car as capable as it is exciting to drive.
Adding to its already commanding presence, a wide body kit and rear spoiler have been fitted, giving this Corvette a more aggressive stance that sets it apart from the crowd. It's a car that demands attention whether parked or in motion.
With current ownership spanning the past 40 years, this Corvette has clearly been cherished and cared for over the decades. It stands today as a powerful, well-sorted classic that blends originality, performance, and long-term ownership history into one compelling package.
