You can see the parts in one of the pictures but they have all been installed. New PS pump, slave cylinder, control valve, hoses etc. On Mar-20-14 at 07:22:58 PDT, seller added the following information: LOWERED RESERVE on March 20th I have had a lot of additional questions on this 68 and requests for additional pictures. All have been answered and pictures sent, thanks! This car needs touches here and there but as you can see, is a nice looking driver the way it sits. I have most of the receipts for the work done and parts bought for this car available. Again, this is an original A/C convertible Corvette. I have all the original ducts and firewall boxes that will go with the car. Car has a CLEAR title in hand. There are 86 watchers on this auction so far so interest is high (and should be now that the reserve has been lowered) On Mar-21-14 at 08:46:16 PDT, seller added the following information: Well, now 129 watchers with some bidding activity. Several emails with questions and a couple requests for viewing this weekend. I have tried to attach a video of it running so I hope it works. The reserve has been lowered. Spring is coming! You know the price for convertibles are going to go up! Good Luck!

I have found something I am interested in purchasing. This car and its parts would easily bring the reserve price if parted out. Someone would be getting a very early production (#3010) of the first year C3. There are now 145 watchers watching this auction. Hopefully, the increased interest and lowered reserve will get it to the reserve price. Again, any questions or additional pictures, just ask. It's hard to find a Rust Free 68 anywhere. Thanks On Mar-24-14 at 19:39:05 PDT, seller added the following information: Well, now less than a full day to go and up to 158 people watching this auction. Closing in the my lowered reserve quickly. Again, any additional questions, feel free to email me! Looks like one of the folks that came and viewed the car has decided to bid on it as well. Car is getting close to going to a new home! Good luck folks!
