1968 Chevrolet Camaro

Wow, a rotisserie restored RS-SS convertible with a 4-speed and a ZZ-4 crate motor! Great combination of classic looks, power, and reliability!

EXTERIOR: This vehicle has the quintessential muscle car looks and styling! The quality of the paint and body work is absolutely over the top. The totally beautiful tuxedo black paint has been applied with great detail then wet sanded and polished to a highly reflective finish. The white nose stripe is a nice compliment to the interior and is totally smooth to the touch, it was applied under the clear coat with expertise. The alignment of all the body panels is tremendous. The doors, hood, and trunk all open and close easily like a new car. The gaps are consistent throughout and absolutely spot on. It has the SS hood with dual power bulges and chrome inserts. The front and rear bumper have both been rechromed. Virtually all the trim pieces and emblems have been rechromed or replaced. Rocker panel moldings and door edge moldings have been added. The front grill with hideaway headlights appears to be in great condition. It has front and rear spoilers. The power white convertible top has been replaced and looks great. All the glass and weatherstrips have been replaced. The 15 inch rally rims are reproductions and have been wrapped in BF Goodrich radial T/A tires.

INTERIOR: Like the exterior, the interior is great looking with some nice features. All the upholstery, carpet, door panels and armrests were replaced. The black and white houndstooth looks great and is very comfortable on those warm days. All the gauges were replaced, odometer reads 2,515 since restoration. It has optional gauges in the console and a tick tock tachometer. The gauges all work including the clock. New wiring harness was installed throughout. The radio has been upgraded to a digital unit with vintage looks. The remainder of the dashboard has been painted and is just as shiny and smooth as the exterior. A USB port has been added under the dash to charge your devices. A full set of reproduction seat belts have been installed all the way around. Overall, the bits and pieces all look great. Let\'s not overlook the best part: a Hurst 4-speed sticking out of the console!

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This is not just a 350 that some guy built in his garage! It is a ZZ4 350 crate engine shipped straight from GM making a reliable 355 hp. It is packed with a forged steel crankshaft, hypereutectic pistons, hydraulic roller camshaft and lifters, and Corvette aluminum heads. It also has a serpentine drive system, aluminum dual-plane intake manifold, Holley dual feed carb, HEI distributor and long tube headers. An aluminum radiator was added along with a new shroud. It features power steering and power brakes. It looks like the wiper motor was replaced and the squirters are even hooked up. The underside or the hood, fender wells, and firewall have all been painted just as smooth and shiny as the exterior in tuxedo black.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: This is a proper and complete trunk compartment! The underside of the lid and jambs are painted tuxedo black with the same smooth reflective finish as the exterior paint. A reproduction sticker and new weatherstrip has been replaced. The trunk pan metal is very solid and has been neatly coated with a factory style spatter paint. A vinyl mat is included. It has a full-size spare tire (with cover) and jack assembly. The convertible top boot is currently being kept in the trunk.

UNDERSIDE: So many shiny and new looking parts here, it puts a smile on my face! All of the steering components have been replaced and look fresh including the center link, tie rod ends, pitman arm, and gearbox etc. The suspension components have been replaced front and back, AC Delco shocks. The front power brakes are discs, and the rear drums look freshened up as well. New lines have been installed throughout and the e-brake is hooked up. Long tube headers connect to a fat dual exhaust system with X-Pipe and Flowmaster mufflers. The gas tank has been replaced as well as the straps and lines. Looking up at the crate ZZ4 engine everything looks nice, clean, and fresh with no visible leaks and a high torque starter. Same goes for the Muncie M-21 4 speed transmission, it is nice and clean looking with no leaks visible. That leads back to the 12 bolt rear end that looks great and has been neatly painted black. The floors are nice and smooth with shiny black paint applied and look totally fresh. This undercarriage looks phenomenal!
