The Corvette Convertible takes the same basic stingray idea with the lid off and turns in top-down driving for two. Drivers of the '68 Corvettes had three options of how to put the top on. Soft top (in black, white, or beige) or removable hardtop- pick either one as standard or order them both together. There is a big story in glass for the '68 Corvette Convertible. The Convertible's removable hardtop has a glass rear window for the first time. The Corvette Convertible starts off with a 300-hp Turbo-Fire 327 V8 standard along with a fully synchronized 4-speed box. For comfort, air flows through Corvette with full door windows closed, thanks to the new Astro Ventilation system with vent ports in the driver and passenger sides of the instrument panel.The 1968 Corvette cockpit is designed with the traveling duo in mind. Thin tapered and contoured buckets are very comfortably high-backed. Between the seats the center console houses the parking brake lever, gear shift, cigarette lighter and ashtray, thumb-wheel heater controls, air vent controls, and light monitoring system indicators. The console also stows seat belt buckle straps- twin sets with push button buckles. The option to order AM/ FM radio was available with or without FM Stereo multiplex. New features like the seat belt reminder light and door ajar flashers were introduced. A new ignition alarm system to remind you to take the key when you leave the car was also introduced.© 2018 National Corvette Museum, All Rights Reserved
