1968 Chevrolet Corvette

Celebrity Cars is pleased to offer this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Aluminum Head L89. This is an exceptionally rare example-one of just 624 produced with the aluminum head L89 option-featuring the legendary 427ci V8 rated at 435 horsepower paired to a 4-speed manual transmission. Finished in its original Silverstone Silver (Code 986) over Gunmetal vinyl (Code 442) interior, this Corvette retains its factory-correct color combination and presents as a highly documented, numbers-matching example. It was privately owned by a good customer of Celebrity Cars and runs and drives excellent. This car benefits from a body-off restoration completed in the early 1990s, with a photo album documenting the work, and has just over 61,000 original miles (approximately 11,000 since restoration). It includes the original tank sticker, owner's manual, and a large collection of original literature and documentation, including features in Corvette Fever magazine.
