Default New 68 Pics

Hi, everybody...just took some pics of the 68 I picked up a couple of weeks ago, and posted to the members gallery in the C3 Corvettes section. I think it's pretty sweet, y'all let me know what you think

Cheers...

The Vette looks good, but why does it appear to have 'stingray' emblems on it


This ought to raise some eyebrows.

C34ME don't worry about Ironcross and the emblems. I have them on my '68 too. It's all about what YOU like.

The previous owner had the Stingray emblems added. I was going to remove them, but I've seen 'em on a lot of others so opted not to. As I understand it, a lot of original 68 owners were upset when the 69's came out with them, and had them added. I like 'em, so I'll leave 'em for now ;-)
