The best daily driver packages are considered by many to be the 元6 and L68 427-ci big-blocks, and this car is the 400-hp L68. Not surprisingly, perhaps, there were only two of these. There was also the ZL1 package, which added an all-aluminum L88 engine and doubled the $4,781 price of the base coupe by adding a whopping $4,718. There were two small-blocks-the base 350/300 and the 350/350 L78-and five big-block engines. Troublesome teething issues were more or less ironed out, a new 350-ci small-block engine was introduced, and sidepipe exhausts were available for the new body style, after being dropped in 1968. For 1969, there were small visual differences-principally the word Stingray added to the front fenders, and the door release mechanism was designed around what was a finger hold in 1968, eliminating the separate release button. The 1968 C3 Corvette was derived from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark show car.
