Triple Black 1968 Corvette convertible, 427/435hp tri-power, 4 speed roadster. Beautiful black paint, black leather interior and new black soft top. According to the previous owner, this stunning black Corvette roadster was born an original triple black L-71 427/435hp roadster and is validated by the color code-900 black paint code and the STD, standard black interior code and has the correct higher horsepower 6500 redline tachometer and 70 psi oil pressure gauge with heavy duty big block suspension and big block sway bar and half shafts. The engine is a 427 cubic inch replacement block that runs very strong and has 435hp internal components based on the previous owners mechanic. Winters tri-power snow flake intake, tri-power three deuce carburetor setup and correct ignition shielding, matched up with a Muncie 4-speed transmission with reverse lock out and has been upgraded with Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes to control the power and an aluminum radiator to keep the big block cool. The interior is exceptional with newer upgraded black leather seat upholstery and a very nice dash with clear crisp instrumentation. This sleek black beauty is rolling on brand new American Racing Torque Thrust II chrome and brand new performance rated radials. These wheels can be exchanged if you prefer the stock look.
