Classic Car Overview
1968 Chevrolet Camaro Hardtop For consignment, a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro hardtop with unknown mileage but dressed in killer red with black stripes, resto-modded with a high performance V8 engine, and wearing taller shoes forged to look factory. Exterior Matador Red pops off the body like a fire engine and is augmented by wide, black painted stripes that run in tandem over the hood, decklid, and rear wing. A cowl hood bumps things up a notch and a custom billet grille takes the place of the cubed version. Marker lights have been moved to the front lower valance that tops a chin spoiler and this all presents a unique face to the 68. Beautifully polished 17-inch Chevrolet Rally wheels really create a great stance with deep dish holding 315 tires in back and low profiles all around. No front bumper, but the back one is in fine shape as is the metalwork and trim around the car. In fact, we could find no exterior imperfections. Interior The standard Camaro black vinyl door panels are super clean with window cranks at the ready. ProCar low back front bucket seats are in place and covered with charcoal cloth. The pattern is copied on the back bench where RJS racing harnesses are provided for the passengers and theres also a roll cage for added safety. A 3 spoke steering wheel leads to a custom gauge cluster with six AutoMeter white faced gauges in a painted black dashboard just beyond the polished and tilt steering column. In the center stack, a Kenwood AM/FM/CD with Bluetooth illuminates the cabin and Vintage Air controllers are just below. More glossy black faces the passenger from the dashboard and a B&M shifter rises confidently from the center hump. The low pile black carpet is in great shape and the headliner is clean and fully intact. Drivetrain Under the cowl hood, a spotless 350ci crate engine with aluminum heads, an Edelbrock intake manifold, electronic fuel injection, and headers. Backing it up is a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission sending power to a Ford 9 in back and providing the spark is an EZ EFI. Power disc brakes are supplied at all four wheels. Undercarriage Except for the occasional cobweb, its nicely clean underneath. The dual exhaust runs from the header to an H-pipe and continues their journey to a pair of FlowMaster mufflers before dumping discreetly under the car in the back. Detroit Speed front arms and coil springs make up the suspension while Detroit Speed leaf springs live out back and the entire car has been dropped 2 . Drive-Ability We crank the crate to life and it lets the neighbors know it means business. The healthy bellow follows us onto the test loop where the car has obvious power underfoot, smooth straight tracking and excellent handling. Braking is on point and acceleration is just a foot tap away. We note the rear tail light and blinker is not working nor are the reverse lights. All other functions work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. Part grand tourer, part drag racer, all glorious! Hey kids, lets go for ice cream. Buckle your racing harnesses! . A fantastic looking, running, and feeling car with a comfortable interior and go anywhere engine. Chevrolet may not have been thinking about 17-inch wheels and aluminum heads for their daily driven Camaros back in the day, but it sure does enhance this classic car today. No pressure, but 68 Camaros consistently sell here at the mall, and well sorted examples like this dont last long. 124378N326969 1-Chevrolet 24-Camaro 37-2 Door Hardtop Sport Coupe 8-1968 N-Norwood, OH Assy Plant 326929-Sequential Unit Number TRIM TAG 10B-2nd Week October ST 68 12437-1968 Camaro 2 Door Hardtop Sport Coupe BDY NOR27112-Norwood Body # TR 712-Black Standard Vinyl Buckets PNT P2-Seafrost Green, Black Top Classic Auto Mall is home to more than 1,000 classic and collectible vehicles for sale via consignment in a climate controlled 336,000-square foot showroom (thats more than 8 acres!).
