Neat for the $19,500 price. K66 ignition too.

great looking car- I love the luggage rack & L88 Hoods on the C3 cars. Interesting comment on the interior fit, with carry-over larger steering wheel etc. Anyone have any experience with driver fitment on the C3 series? ('68-"82) I'm 6-3 and 250lb so these cars older cars feel a lot tighter than they did in my youth! Were the later C3 cars a better fit for bigger guys?

My son's 68 is pretty tight and I'm 5'8" 225. The issue for me is generally the steering wheel. It's a really tight squeeze for the legs to slide in under the wheel. If it had a tilt wheel, it would be lots easier. Otherwise, I'd say that the car will probably feel a bit narrow, as it's a T-Top and not a vert. Wide shoulders are not really your friend here.
Nice looking car though.

He had a fellow fly out from SC with check in hand and the fellow couldnt fit behind the wheel. Cant you use a black 69 wheel that's smaller in diameter for a better fit on plump folks? Its a real nice original car that runs great.

Well 69 and up offered a tilt steering column which helps us big boys and a bit wider interior.
.
The 1968 Corvettes just seem to beg to be sold.
