Corvettes at Carlisle photos

Hi Guys,

Everyone knows what a shiny, restored, cookie cutter Corvette looks like, everyone appreciates them too. This is a post of those not-so-lusterous Corvettes that might be lacking in looks but compensate plenty with character.

Had a blast meeting with members here, friends, new acquaintances, etc. Did more parts hunting than picture taking - only took 40 pictures and these were worth sharing.

Enjoy the photos.

I wish I did Bud. Owner was fishing for value. I offered $40k but he said he needed more $. Apparently it came out of hibernation just a month back. Its cool as heck but its still a '68.

I think this is the way to go for an older vette. I am so tired of over-restored, under-driven cars.

Thanks for posting Dan, good choice selection.

The 435hp car had solid paperwork from Yenko and was dealer modified at Yenko with the wheels, exhaust, and hood. Extremely nice survivor quality car. He was accepting offers.

I find that amazing considering he never said a word of Yenko. This is news to me. I don't think it adds much value to the car though. Its still a day-2 '68 435 that cannot be shown in its current condition. Unless Yenko modified the car and he has paper proving that, a window sticker and/or P-o-P stating the Yenko origination is down right cool but doesn't bump the car up to '69 435 value.
