Cool car...nice looking original paint and bright blue interior. The Hult provenance is nice...not sure it adds a ton of value to this particular car, but I'd pay a little more to have a car originally delivered to my home state.
Pretty horrible pics for such a nice car...in this case, I would have paid someone to come out and shoot a few hundred pics...would only cost a few hundred bucks, and would go a long way toward the bidding.

Yep, nice looking car. Mr. Collins bought that about 1 week after I passed my driver test and got my license.
Tony, you originally from Madison ? My wife grew up there, graduated in '79.

Should a Vette have chrome valve covers?

Looks like it had redlines originally - that is a great look with that color blue. Nice car with some nice documentation. Is that an original W/S or an aged repro?

I've always wondered why they ALL didn't have chrome. Good grief, their flagship hot rod and painted valve covers ????Come on GM..:rolleyes2:

You have to get your head out in the sun Scuncio !!! He just wants to sell a "primo" car that he owns... HOly sh... If it ain't a COPO or Penske Camaro you run it in the ground.
Try to look at reality...it's a great car for what it is. A 68 427 Vette in Excellent condition.....
You may Camaros, you don't know Vettes

It's a great car but the pictures are terrible. Isn't that what I said in the original post?

It's a beautiful car, but the motor has probably been out of it or at least "fluffed" and repainted. So in that case, if we are splitting hairs, can you still call it "unrestored"? But I have to say that the paint and interior are amazing if both are original as stated. I like it.

Didn't the trough in front of the cowl vent get flat black paint? The area on this car appears to be body color. Maybe it isn't 100% original paint or was that area body color on the 68' Corvettes?

Tough crowd.
I was merely asking a question, not trying to be critical.
