1968 Chevrolet Camaro Description

It's hard to go wrong investing in a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS, especially when it has been given all the right investments. That means a correct 1968 big block that's been enhanced, a close ratio four-speed stick shift, and all the best components to create muscle car desire on wheels.The slick red paint will make your heart race, but this Camaro is more about bad attitude than romance. It shows its aggressive side, with a black streak, that starts with the RS grille, runs through the SS stinger stripe, and continues onto the blacked-out rear panel. Even the center cap on the iconic Rally wheels follows this theme. The traditional ducktail out back adds to the SS's attitude, and proper badging remains throughout, including the prized "396" emblems on the front fenders. But before all these features fill you with desire, take some time to look at the fundamentals. Panel fit is quite good overall, there's been a solid investment in mirror-like bumpers, and it's nice to see a stock hood with the "ice cube tray" inserts, simply because their correct originality draws attention.Inside is the perfect mix of vintage premium and performance. The Camaro's upscale buckets and console make this one feel more like a gentleman's hot rod than a street brawler. This premium attitude is continued with woodgraining on the console and three-spoke sport steering wheel. The driver gets a full array of original instruments, including the coveted tic-toc-tach and white-faced auxiliary gauges on the console. This one feels so 1960s fresh, it even has the period-correct AM/FM radio.The big block 396 cubic-inch V8 nearly fills every inch under the hood with muscle car prowess. One glance at the highly detailed engine bay, and you'll see there was no expense spared in this very important showpiece. It has been beautifully finished with plenty of extra polished components, including the bright Cal Custom valve covers with painted grooves to match the bold block color. So this gives you the perfect blend of vintage appeal with upgraded appearance. This mix also extends to the motor. Because while it's great to have the original block still in the car, it's even better to have it enhanced with go-fast goodies like a Holley 750 CFM four-barrel carburetor, Weiand hi-rise aluminum intake, Mallory ignition, and Hooker long tube headers. Plus, the original Muncie M21 four-speed manual transmission is still in place to give you a hardy gearbox that offers complete control over the monster motor and its thunderous soundtrack. But taming this beastly Camaro is also quite easy thanks to a Positration rear end, power steering, and front disc brakes.Complete with owner's manual, someone has made a great investment caring for this iconic big block Camaro RS/SS, and now it's your turn to reap the rewards.
