UP FOR AUCTION AND YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE IS THIS 1968 CAMARO RALLY SPORT (ALANAS2B). THIS CAMARO IS AN ORIGINAL RALLEY SPORT THAT CAME WITH A BIG-BLOCK 396CI AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND AIR CONDITIONING. IT’S ORIGINAL COLOR WAS LEMANS BLUE / BLUE. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE. HE HAD THIS CAR FOR 21 YEARS ALWAYS STORED IN HIS GARAGE. WHEN MY FRIEND AND HIS DAD PURCHASED THIS CAR, DURING THE FRAME ON RESTORATION PROCESS THEY DID AWAY WITH THE ORIGINAL 396 (SERIOUS INTERNAL ISSUES) AND REPLACED IT WITH A BUILT 454 BORED 468CI. MY FRIEND AND HIS DAD WERE WELL KNOWN IN THE COMMUNITY FOR BUILDING SOME AWESOME CARS OVER THE YEARS (FIRST GENERATION CAMARO’S / CHEVELLE’S). MY FRIEND SHARED WITH ME AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE THAT THIS MOTOR PROBABLY DIDN’T HAVE 500 MILES ON IT. HE AND HIS DAD DROVE IT PERIODICALLY AROUND THE COMMUNITY FROM TIME TO TIME. JUST HAS MAINLY SAT IN THE GARAGE AS A FORMER FATHER AND SON PROJECT AND CONVERSATION PIECE. THIS CAMARO HAS HAD A COUPLE OF COLOR CHANGES OVER THE YEARS MOST RECENTLY THE COLOR COMBO YOU SEE HERE. BLACK / BLACK WITH WHITE RALLY STRIPES. MY FRIENDS DAD HAS SINCE PASSED AWAY IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND MY FRIEND HAS JUST LOST INTEREST IN THIS CAR FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. HENCE THE PHONE CALL FROM MY FRIEND ASKING IF I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN THIS CAR. MY WIFE AND I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLASSIC CAMARO'S AND CHEVELLES THROUGH THE YEARS AND LOVE TO ATTEND CLASSIC CAR SHOWS AND RALLIES THROUGHOUT NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINA. SO WHEN HE CALLED WE THOUGHT ABOUT IT AND SAID YES AND WE WOULD BE HONORED TO HAVE WHAT MY WIFE AND I WOULD CONSIDER TO BE A PIECE OF PROCTORVILLE, NC MUSCLE CAR HISTORY. MY WIFE IS FROM PROCTORVILLE AND SEVERAL YEARS AGO KAREN HAD A 1967 RS/SS 396-4SPD (KARENS67) IN THIS SAME COLOR COMBINATION. SHE WISHES SHE HAD NEVER SOLD HER CAR SO WHEN THIS OPPORTUNITY CAME TO BE WE FIGURED IT WAS THE NEXT BEST THING CONSIDERING ALL OF THE KARMA THAT GOES ALONG WITH THIS CAR. LOVE ME SOME CAR-MA!!! WE PURCHASED THE CAR AND DECIDED TO HIT THE CAR SHOWS AGAIN AND HOPEFULLY MEET BACK UP WITH SOME OF THE FINE PEOPLE WE MET YEARS AGO. SINCE PURCHASING THIS CAR WE HAVE ALSO ACQUIRED A LITTLE BUNGALO AT A LAKE THAT I GREW UP ON AND YES YOU GUESSED IT. WE HAVE SPENT MORE TIME AT THE LAKE EVEN DURING THE OFF SEASON AND HAVE YET TO TAKE THE CAMARO TO A SINGLE CAR SHOW. I DONT SEE THINGS CHANGING AND I REALLY HATE TO SEE THIS CAMARO GO BUT IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THESE ANTIQUE CLASSIC CARS TO SIT AROUND AND NOT BE USED. IT NEEDS TO BE APPRECIATED, DRIVEN AND TAKING OUT AND SHOWN OFF. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY RADIO AND WIPER DELETE. THIS IS A NICE CAR BUT COULD USE TO HAVE A FEW THINGS DONE TO IT TO MAKE IT EXTRA NICE SUCH AS A DETROIT ELECTRIC HIDE-AWAY HEADLIGHT SYSTEM (AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS) THAT I WAS GOING TO INSTALL AND JUST HAVE NOT GOTTEN AROUND TO IT. I AM CURRENTLY INSTALLING A BRAND NEW B&M QUICK SILVER SHIFTER (AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS). I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR MUCH AT ALL OTHER THAN JUST AROUND THE COUNTRY COMMUNITY I LIVE IN. I CAN TELL YOU THAT THIS 468 CI MOTOR IS A BEAST AND SOUNDS AWESOME! I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS AS BEST I CAN. JUST INBOX ME. GOOD LUCK BIDDING!!!
