Down sizing and it needs to go and I no longer have the space and time!1968 Chevelle El Camino SS. Car has not been driven in 15 plus years and NEEDS RESTORATION.Factory SS car (138 VIN). Does not run from sitting (motor won't turn over) and DOES NOT have original big block engine.Currently has a 307 Small block and 350 turbo automatic transmission with all 1968 brackets ,AC mounts, power steering ,etc. Car was well equipped for 1968 - tilt,cruise,pwr windows ,pwr steering,gauges,AM/FM. Also included are over $1200-1500 in new parts - see list below. Factory colors were harvest gold with tan/gold interior and vinyl top (black?).Car had been repainted and interior dyed black before I purchased car in 1979 without an engine or transmission.I put a 307 engine and 350 trans from a 1968 four door car I had in it to make a driver.Car was driven regularly from 1979-1998. The four door parts car is included if winner wants it. I kept it for frame and rear end and suspension if they were ever needed. I understand frame can be extended behind rear wheels for use in an el camino and boxed for strength. Condition: Car is solid for the most part.Bed is good.Rust in the usual places around rear tires and lower quarters. probably could get by with lower half of quarters if you wanted but I have quarter skins and outer wheel wells that are included. Front floors are okay - see pictures and judge for yourself.Back floors have been fiber glassed at some point for pin holes. Some rust around rear window channel. One front fender has lower patch panel roughed in and other front fender needs lower patch and has a dent on upper front. Windshield is cracked- all other glass is okay other than minor scratches and wear for a near 50 year old car. Interior is so so and dash has some cracks from age. Right front plastic vent panel bad (near floor). Car has: 3.08 Posi-traction 12 bolt rear with Moser c-clip replacement axles 15" Rally wheels Full factory gauge dash with "Roller Tach" Power windows and power steering and Air Conditioning (all parts are there- vents etc.) Tilt steering wheel Came with AM/FM radio but radio was removed before I became the owner - has after market radio Cruise control column and some parts under hood (not complete). NEW PARTS INCLUDED: After market quarter panel skins After market outer wheel wells GM New old stock (NOS) bed chrome (all except one front corner piece) still in boxes/wrappers.
