1968 Chevrolet

Every now and again you meet a collector of motorcars whose passion runs well beyond the “what” or “how many” regarding the contents of their garage.  These unique individuals see their automobile collection as a series of works of art; keeping them as original as possible is significantly more important and valuable than a wonderful looking car that has undergone a frame off restoration (or two).  The exterior “patina”; the perfect interior and consoles un-marred by the careless tossing of keys, change and other paraphernalia; the original door moldings in almost perfect condition; a steering wheel darkened over time by the natural oils from the drivers hands.  Add to these other important features offered by a vehicle like this such as the original emblems and badges (that still retain their vibrant colors after all the years); the original numbers matching mechanical components from front to back and low, original miles.  All these things and more separate a good car from a truly remarkable car.

We, both you and I, are fortunate to have access to a few cars from one collector that without doubt falls into this category.  The first is this amazing 1968 T-Top Corvette Coupe.  This is a late model year 427ci - 400hp with triple two barrel carburetors, a 4 Speed manual transmission and factory A/C.  The car has traveled 23,300 documented original miles and has won numerous awards from NCRS and others along the way.  The paint is 80% original and is mint; the interior is 100% original and also mint. The steering wheel, the gauges, seats, and door panels look N.O.S. (New Old Stock) as do the badges  etc. Everything works, all the Fiber Optic lights, the radio, the AC, everything; even the original smog pump is still installed and working and the car features a latched, removable rear window. 

This car is a survivor; we have the original sticker and a book with an article written about this specific car as well as a thick file of documentation.  Offered at $75,500, this car will not last long and will make you the envy of any car collector friends with whom you associate.  So the question is do you want to own the original Picasso or are you happy with the Picasso where someone else has painted over it to cover the natural imperfections in the paint?
