The guys who didn't like to argue showed up in 427 Corvettes! No car caused more concern for... a street racing adversary, and if you've driven one you know why. This beautiful Safari Yellow (984) 1968 Corvette convertible is a fine example for a case study on the joys of big block 'Vettes. its numbers matching (der. 18S400297, suffix IL, BCN 3916321) 427 ci V8, this blue chip collectible is ready for any adventure.
