This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS presents as a mostly stock driver powered by a 327ci V8 paired with a 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. The seller acquired the car 20 years ago, and estimates that he has driven it about 5000 miles. A tune-up, oil/filter, and lube service were performed in June 2018 in preparation for sale, along with a Manitoba Vehicle Safety Inspection. This 1968 Camaro RS is located in Winnipeg, Canada and is now offered with partial receipts/records and a clean Manitoba title in the seller’s name.
The cowl tag indicates that the car left the Norwood, Ohio factory in Corvette Bronze with a black vinyl roof. Rust is present under the vinyl roof, behind the rear wheels, and at the base of the windshield on the driver’s side. The RS appearance package included hidden headlights, revised taillights with back-up lights under the rear bumper, RS badging, and exterior bright trim.
The Government safety inspection indicates play in the steering linkage and that the left rear leaf spring bushings are worn out. Power steering is optioned, and stopping is handled by unassisted drum brakes all-around. Chrome Cragar S/S wheels wear BFG Radial T/A tires.
The deluxe interior is finished in gold vinyl and is optioned with a floor-mounted transmission shifter and an AM radio. Overall, the interior appears to remain in original condition, and wear can be seen on the door panels, console, and the carpeting. Under 70k miles are shown on the odometer.
The 327ci V8-2V was originally rated at 210 horsepower with 320 lb-ft of torque and is paired with a Powerglide 2-speed automatic transmission. The car received a tune-up, oil/filter change, and a chassis lube in June 2018. The recent government safety inspection indicates three exhaust leaks described by the seller as small.
