This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is powered by a 489ci V8 with an upgraded rotating assembly, Isky camshaft, hydraulic lifters, Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, a Holley Street Avenger four-barrel carburetor, a Flowmaster 3″ exhaust system, electronic ignition, and a Ron Davis 2 core radiator with dual electric fans. The car was acquired by the seller in 2002 and is finished in Ermine White with black stripes over a black and houndstooth interior. Additional modifications consist of a Tremec TKO600 five-speed manual transmission, 12-bolt rear axle with 4.10:1 gears, 17″ Wheel Vintiques Rallye wheels, power-assisted Wilwood 13″ front disc brakes, a Global West Cat 5 full package with front QA1 coilovers, a quick-ratio steering box, power steering, and rear QA1 shock absorbers, RS/SS hideaway headlamps, a Hurst shifter, and a Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo. This Camaro is offered with service records and a clean Arizona title in the seller’s name.
The car is said to have been repainted in Ermine White with black stripes. Equipment includes an RS/SS front grille and concealed headlamps, an SS cowl hood, front and rear spoilers, dual chrome mirrors and bumpers, black tail and rocker panels, SS 396 badging, and a dual turndown exhaust. The seller notes that the hood was installed in 2005 and the semi-gloss rear tail panel was painted in 2021, and the vacuum headlamp system and wipers were replaced.
Black Wheel Vintiques 17″ Rallye wheels are mounted with Bridgestone Potenza RE 760 sport tires that measure 235/45 up front and 275/40 out back. The suspension was modified with a Global West front suspension kit with QA1 coilovers, and Cat 5 rear leaf springs with QA1 shock absorbers. Braking is provided by power-assisted Wilwood front discs and rear drums with an adjustable proportioning valve. The car is equipped with power steering and a Global West quick ratio steering gearbox. The seller notes the brake system was serviced in 2021.
The cabin features Corbeau front bucket seats and a rear bench reupholstered in black vinyl with houndstooth inserts and a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpeting. Equipment includes a 4-point roll bar, Deist 5-point seat harnesses, faux wood trim on the dash and console, manual windows, a center console, a lockable glovebox, polished door sills, a Hurst shifter, and a Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames an AutoMeter 160-mph speedometer and a 10k-rpm tachometer. The factory center console gauges were replaced with AutoMeter units which display readouts for voltage, coolant temperature, fuel level, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows 22k miles, which are said to represent the mileage since the completion of the refurbishment. Total mileage is unknown.
The 489ci V8 was modified by Chuck Hawk’s Performance of Tucson, Arizona, with a Scat rotating assembly, an Isky camshaft, hydraulic lifters, an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, a Holley Street Avenger four-barrel carburetor, aftermarket headers, a Flowmaster 3″ exhaust system, electronic ignition, and a Ron Davis 2 core radiator with dual electric fans. The seller notes that the valve springs, spark plugs, and ignition wires were replaced and the oil was changed at Chuck Hawk’s Performance in January 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec TKO600 five-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt rear axle with 4.10:1 gears. A McLeod clutch is said to have been installed in 2021.
