Paint and body are just gorgeous. .Frame and Sub-frame are rust free. Car was taken down to the metal - any imperfections were replaced with metal.. After car was prepped a 8k Blue Le Mans paint job was added. The first comment I get at the weekend car shows is "GREAT PAINT JOB." Shows really well.

A very thick folder full of receipts for almost all the work completed with a parts list will come with the purchase, included pictures of paint/body work. No heater hoses but the heater core is still intact. Wiper motor and wiper arms are not installed but will come with car.
There is well over $50K invested in this car. Really needs nothing to enjoy and drive. Paint is simply fantastic and I get compliments on it all the time.
Plenty of documentation, pictures and receipts will come with this car in addition to a ton of spare parts.
NOT 100% Sure but i believed to be an authentic SS/RS Camaro due to VIN number showing V8, multi-leaf rear springs and 12-bolt posi which only came on SS cars along with power front disc brakes as an SS option. In 1968 Camaro cowl tag and VIN numbers do not prove Super Sport. Car is selling NO RESERVE, AS IS _ NO WARRANTY!!! Nevada Clear title In Hand. Inspections are welcome.
