Up for auction is my 1968 corvette coupe. It has just undergone a complete frame-off restoration in 2008 at the price of $37,237.80 by Irvin Patrick at C&I corvette in Paintsville, KY.

This is a beautiful car that has been done very carefully and with remarkable attention to detail. The car is painted rally red with red interior. The car has the original 327 350 horsepower engine, with a muncy 4-speed transmission, and posi-traction rear end. Options are: tilt steering column, power windows, AM/FM radio, speed warning indicator, rear defroster, power steering, and everything has been either done new or reconditioned. Prior to the restoration, the frame had never had rust or been wrecked. I have all the receipts to show what was done to the car.

This car runs and drives excellent. I feel that it can be driven anywhere. Everything works on the car, with the exception of the wipers. I am sure that its a minor problem, because everything on the car is new. This car was bought from the original owners in Ohio, with only 25,000 actual miles before the restoration. It now has 26,000. In closing, you would be hard pressed to find a better running, driving, and detailed car in today's market. I could go on about this car for pages, but feel that the pictures and builder will speak for themselves.

The trim tag reads:

Built Date: K26 Trim: 414 Paint: 976

VIN: 194378S423667

The following was an appraisal written by the car's restorer, Irvin Patrick in 2008.
