Chevrolet Camaro 1968 Description
Selling my fully built out custom 1968 Chevrolet Camaro. This chevy was an originally California driven car and occasional weekend driver which went through a full ‘protouring’ style rotisserie restoration with utilization of premium parts and modern performance. The car while not created to be a 'show car' but rather a useable and drivable machine was painstakingly built and looks incredible. However the time has come to get rid of some toys so the car is currently being stored in west Los Angeles and has less than 500 miles on the completed build (see odometer pic). Car was largely rust free and stripped down to the frame before being built from the studs up with a ‘Scuderia’ semi-gloss black paint (paint application was originally racing stripes on modern exotics) and range of modern performance parts. This car sounds feels and drives incredible due to the built out LS drivetrain (seated as low and far back as possible nearly a mid-engine) which when matched with the full hotchkis suspension makes the car feel on absolute rails. Further the car turns more heads than anything else i’ve ever seen and the more 'spartan' build makes maintenance fairly easy. However car could benefit from a new LS tune (easy and cheap to do but has not been done since new cam install) there is a small quarter size dent on passenger's door (easy repair and may by done by time of sale) and there are a few various very small road debris chips on expected locations (again also easily perfect and may have this done by time of sale). Thank you for your interest asking price is OBO and may consider interesting trades so feel free to email message or text with questions and offers. Cheers.BUILD SPECS: Exterior: -Body in ’Scuderia flat black’ with various trim and SS RS components in gloss -Full carbon fiber RS rear spoiler -Full carbon fiber (and billet aluminum mesh) cowl covers -Dual DLC black billet mirrors and black rearview -Mostly new seals hinges billet door strikers hardware weatherstripping felts etc. -New headlights markers and billet bezels and LED lighting -Nitto NT05 245 & 275 tires on custom forged and coated Rushforth 18 wheels (Note: With current spacers tire widths and set up there is light tire rub at steep inclines and completed full lock) Interior: -Modified 2002 Trans-am dash with billet brackets custom carbon fiber gauge tray Full Autometer ultra-lite gauges (Speedo tach fuel oil pressure water temp) and custom billet console/center race panel (including ’hidden’ battery cut push button ignition pump switch and additional auxiliary switches) -Sony Bluetooth & MP3 head unit with 4 KHE 6x9 speakers interior brake light and removable tray -Full alcantara headliner rear pillars liner column wrap and Momo champion steering wheel -Billet CNC aluminum handle cranks and multi adjustable shit knob (dual bracketed rubber boots) -Black italian leather Recaro sportster CS race seats (reclined and on custom SS sliders) -Coated low profile 4 point cage with removable rear cross bar and billet pins (fully useable rear) -Schroth 4 point rally harnesses (with OEM belts at rear bench) (Note: No AC/wipers currently installed but they/hardware will come and is dash ducting) Drivetrain: -Built out LS1 with LS6 oil pump LS2 timing chain Texas speed 224R 112 cam all titanium seats and retainers titanium dual springs chromoly pushrods Weiand full custom manifold LS6 injectors billet fuel rails custom specter intake braided lines and billet fittings ECM /HP flash and electric fan.
