Corvette C3 No.3 Le Mans 24H 1968 Maglioli/Greder in 1:18 scale
This is the Corvette C3 No.3 Le Mans 24H 1968 Maglioli/Greder in 1:18 scale by Spark.
The 1968 Chevrolet Corvette C3 No. 3, entered by Swiss team Scuderia Filipinetti and driven by Umberto Maglioli and Henri Greder, was a striking front‑engined American GT car powered by a large 7.0 L Chevrolet V8 — a massive engine for the time that made the Corvette competitive against European GT rivals. Unfortunately it failed to finish the race due to a head gasket failure, but its participation was notable because Corvettes weren’t common at Le Mans then, and the big‑block V8 gave it brute torque and character that set it apart from the more nimble European machinery.
