This 1968 big block powered vintage racer was freshly prepared for vintage racing, but did not enter any events or practice. | ||
When I asked if it would run; a fellow stated it was not yet 100% complete and things like a dry or wet sump would be left for the new owner to decide. | ||
Of all the Corvettes present for sale (admittedly small), this was the one my wife was most interested in. | ||
This was identified as a fresh 454 Chevy crate motor, selected for reliability. | ||
The door handle pushbuttons are one of the only clues that this was a 1968 model. | ||
Both the front and rear clips were easily removed by unscrewing just a few fasteners. The entire floor pan was replaced with metal. It was clean. | ||
All my wife had to do was see this sign and I could see my 401K being ravished. | ||
On the back of their trailer, I spotted this ad for another vintage racer seeking a new home. |
