1968 CORVETTE STINGRAY - FAMILY TIES

[@angelotodaro1475]

Any car that can bring a father and son closer together is priceless. I once owned a C3, and my son recently bought me a C5 just so he can share the Corvette experience with his OldMan!!!

That's what it's about my friend! Have fun!!

[@kathleenekstrom6986]

This was my dad's project car that he really never got a chance to do anything to. Our family friend Kenny Johnson bought it from my mom after my dad passed away. Kenny restored the car to perfection. This is such a well done video story of this vehicle and the impact it's had on two families. My dad would be SO proud and I'm SO proud too and just so grateful to Kenny Johnson for fulfilling my father's dream for his 1968 Corvette Stingray.

Wow- Cool 👍 I have never seen a 68:with a Stingray badging

Working with Brent and his team has been a video adventure. Brent has a God-given talent for helping people tell their story. He has a kind and patient way of bringing the story together. His creative skills are unbelievable. Our friendship has grown over the years and I can't put in words how much I appreciate what he has done here. My family has something that documents this project better than I could have ever imagined. Ken Johnson

Brent has an amazing eye for what he does, and best of all he is a genuine and nice guy!

Great car, Ken. BTW, my name is Ken Johnson, also, and I have a 1969 Corvette. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWPOaI2Vqd2mqNU

The most not one of, but the most beautiful Corvette year ever and the one of the best looking cars ever made since tires were invented.🇺🇸

[@johhnyo]

68 was good and the c3, but the c2 is the one everyone wants..especially the 67..that car just had it all

[@truebetold65]

@johhnyo I beg the differ. It's all hype. Three years ago, I witnessed such. A young 23 year old saw a 72 and said. That is the most beautiful corvette I've ever seen. It must be the C2. I said no, it's a C3. He then said never mind. Its okay. He then changed the subject.

[@truebetold65]

@johhnyo and if you think the C2 looks better than the 68, 69 then it's what you like. Cool beans. Personally I think the C2 is a classic but it has the ugliest front grill in gm history. The side looks like a turtle but the back of it is okay with wide wheels. Skinny wheels makes it look funny. No modifications what so ever. Peace out

[@tracerocks]

I had a 68 with an L88 in it. The most amazing car I’ve ever been in. Sold it to start a business in 1988. Missed that car every day of my life.

[@andrewlm5677]

Most beautiful car ever made

[@markmartin5765]

Your son has a great look for the final car. Black, 4 Spd. (Also 427 a plus) Awesome! Good for him. It’s my bucket list car I am looking for now!

[@vette646974]

Great video Ken! Mike

[@C3Stingray]

Really well made video. I really enjoyed the story. Love to see people have that great of a connection to a car. Beautiful car.

[@haromaster6086]

What an epic car! Sounds like an amazing journey

[@garthrobinson5479]

In 1968 it was not called a Stingray that didn't start until 1969, beautiful car though and a great story, my son will inherit my 1968 C3 big block one day.

[@vanishingpoint5248]

Yup...I have a 68..I've given up correcting folks, its tiring..😄

[@barrybarry8564]

@@vanishingpoint5248 hey at least it's not as bad as the people listing "Camero"s on craigslist haha

[@danielnehdar8138]

Such a beautiful car. Loved this video 👌🏼👌🏼 thank you 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@e.z.hernandez6378]

I just brought a 68 327 back from the dead. Kept it mostly original. Interior refurbish and paint correction comes next. Labor of love.

[@sidebproductionsllc8353]

Enjoy it!!

[@Motleymick]

Great video, great story, Even better car. I wish I had a Dad to do projects like this with. And I'd love to build a 68 or 69 rest mod Stingray someday. All Corvettes should be black.

[@DumbCarGuy]

I have a factory black side piped 427 4spd sitting in the corner of my polebarn. Non AC but has removable glass with astro ventilation. Maybe it's worth something these days 🤔

[@sidebproductionsllc8353]

Highly likely with car values along with supply and demand, capitalize while you can!

[@akarilotube]

Bitchin ride, great story, stories like these are a dying breed unfortuately.

Hey, Im making a short film for an album of music, one of the songs is written about a 1968 Stingray, I was wondering if I could use a bit of your footage for some shots. appreciate it if possible :)

[@tattednyctrkman8119]

I had a 69 and a 68. Nothing but money pits.

If it’s a 68…it’s not a Stingray….If it’s a Stingray…it’s not a 68…. Good story tho!
