1968 Chevrolet Corvette
No more Sting Ray now just called Corvette
it was restyled to be more curvaceous and flashy
but kept the same underbody and chassis,
some thought that they had ruined the line yet sales increased
the coupe had lift off roof panels that made it
into a faux ragtop (now called a t-top)
also redesigned were the Chevelle and Chevy II
Chevy's lineup gave you performance, value or luxury depending on which car you choose
Cost: $4,360.00 (T-Top Coupe - shown)

1969 Chevrolet Camaro
Some mild rear fender style changes this year
Camaro had so many option packages that would change
the appearance of the car that a new look wasn't necessary
numerous performance packages were available
like the SS-350, SS-369, and Z-28 models
this was the last year for a convertible
Cost: $2,905.00 (Convertible - shown)
|
1969 Chevrolet Chevelle
Newly remodeled in '68 so it didn't change this year
the Chevelle gained wide buyer approval by offering so many choices
the SS appealed to high performance drivers while the four door was favored by value conscious families
the two door coupe seemed to attract a young demographic
Cost: $2,690.00
