It packs a punch as powerful as Rocky's.
After buying this 1968
Corvette in auction back in 2009, Sylvester Stallone gave the
convertible some serious modifications John Rambo himself would be proud
of. Under the hood, the Vette features a 8.3-liter Donovan Big Block
rated at 660 hp, which is sent to to a five-link coilover rear
suspension via a five-speed manual. The entire fiberglass body was also
boxed with thicker steel to give it some much needed rigidity, given the
way we assume Sly drove the car.
The cabin was also upgraded with full leather
upholstery, Corbeau seats, vintage air conditioning, and a Flaming River
tilt steering wheel. Other mods include anti-lock brakes, fuel
injection, power steering, a custom roll bar and a set of Boyd
Coddington wheels. Stallone’s red Corvette has previously changed hands,
but for $129,900, Taggart Autosport in North Carolina will throw in the
Hollywood legend’s autographed registration and photo of him behind the
wheel.
