Description from the seller
1968 Chevrolet Corvette 427 V8 Automatic – Matching Numbers
General
For sale: a highly sought-after classic from 1968 – the Chevrolet Corvette C3. This first year of the legendary C3 generation is especially valued by collectors and enthusiasts. The car combines timeless styling with impressive performance. The example has been fully restored in the Netherlands and is now in top condition, ready for the next owner. A true must-have for any classic car collector! Additionally, a matching Hardtop in color is included!
Bodywork & Paint Shop
The bodywork is sleek, straight, and rust-free, maintaining the original lines and details. The paintwork is glossy and well-maintained, giving the Corvette its powerful appearance. Chrome parts, bumpers, and trim are neat and contribute strongly to the authentic, classic look.
Technical
Under the hood lies the legendary 427 V8 big block – matching numbers, paired with a smooth automatic transmission. This engine originally delivers about 395 hp and provides the raw power and driving experience that make the Corvette an icon. Thanks to the dual exhausts, the raw, recognizable V8 sound is fully expressed. The car has largely remained in its original factory condition, which enhances its collector value.
INTERIOR:
The interior has been excellently preserved and exudes the original atmosphere of the 60s. The seats, door panels, and dashboard are neat, matching in color, and well maintained. Together, they provide a comfortable and authentic driving experience.
Documents
Equipped with a Dutch license plate (EU) – importation into other EU countries is therefore simple.
The sale concerns a maritime vehicle, so without VAT. An appraisal report is available, valued at 62,500 euros!
AFHALING
The car can be viewed and picked up in Appingedam. Transportation can be arranged upon request.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
