Vehicle Detail
1968 Chevy Camaro Two owner rust free California car, clean and clear California title and registration, built in Los Angeles and is an original V8 car by the VIN. The Camaro was bought from the original owner who had it customized in the mid 70’s, she drove it for a few years then stored the car for approximately thirty years, only reviving it a couple of years ago. It has had only one repaint in 45 years. The only filler or bondo on the entire car is the little that was used to blend the rear flairs, there is also no cracking or flaking around the flairs, ( a magnet sticks firmly to every panel, even the normally rusted or repaired areas such as the, truck floor, lower front fenders, quarters and lower edges of the doors, these are all rust and bondo free on this car ). The paint has faded a little over the years and there are some nicks and scratches but the exterior still looks presentable. The car is also hand pinstriped in the 70’s style. The front inner fenders were removed when the car was modified as was popular in the 70’s, but they will be supplied with the car, ( they are easily bolted back in place ). The wheels are the original US made 70’s Ansen slot mags in 15x10 and 14x7 with new white lettered tires. The stance comes courtesy of period correct Gabriel HiJacker air shocks. The engine is a 350 V8 with high performance heads, a mild cam, Edelbrock Torker intake, Edelbrock carb, headers and a dual exhaust. The engine does not overheat, smoke, leak any fluids or make any noises it shouldn’t. The transmission is a Turbo 400 with a TransGo shift kit and B&M ratchet shifter. The interior was redone from headliner to carpet in the mid 70’s and still looks new. New second generation Camaro seats were bought and fitted before the whole interior was tastefully retrimmed in black velour. The 70’s Radio/Cassette with additional amp and graphic equalizer still works great as does the retro Dixco tach. All the glass is good with no cracks or scratches. All in all the car is an original 70’s street machine, built in the 70’s, not a recreation or an overdone restoration, no quick cheap paintjobs or amateur repairs to make it look pretty to sell. It has perfect patina and looks, sounds and behaves as a real street machine from that era should; mean, loud, fast and dangerous. Please feel free to ask any question, any inspection is welcomed.

The brakes are standard drums. The suspension is very good, the springs have not sagged or worn over the years, the rear air shocks are new and there are no shackle extensions to raise the rear. The car does have power steering, the steering ratio is quicker than stock. The trunk floor and floor pans are very solid, there are no rust or rot issues. The car is located in Southern California, from my experience driving it i would have no concerns driving it across country. please feel free to ask any questions that might not have been covered.
