This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro coupe is powered by a 454ci V8 that was installed in 2016 and assembled with a high-performance rotating assembly, Brodix cylinder heads, a hydraulic roller camshaft, and a Holley carburetor atop the Edelbrock intake manifold. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed 700R4 automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential, and the car rides on front coilovers and 15″ Rally wheels. It was refinished in red with white side stripes, and additional equipment includes a cowl hood, a rear spoiler, long-tube headers, power steering, and front disc brakes. The cabin is trimmed in black vinyl upholstery with woodgrain trim, and a retro-look digital stereo is installed. This Camaro is now offered on dealer consignment with engine records and a clean Wisconsin title.
The car was delivered from the factory in Sequoia Green and has been fitted with a replacement cowl hood and refinished in red with white “hockey stick” side stripes. Details include 396 badging, polished wheel well and rocker panel moldings, dual side mirrors, a rear spoiler, and chrome bumpers.
The 15″ Rally wheels are mounted with staggered-width BFGoodrich Radial T/A white-letter tires. The car is equipped with power steering and a coilover front suspension, and braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and rear drums.
The front bucket seats and a rear bench are upholstered in black vinyl, and appointments include woodgrain trim, polished sill plates, and a retro-look digital stereo.
A Grant steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer and a fuel level gauge, while an aftermarket tachometer is mounted below the dashboard. Auxiliary readouts are mounted ahead of the horseshoe-style shifter. The five-digit odometer shows 53k miles, and approximately 2k miles were reportedly added since the engine was installed. Total mileage is unknown.
The 454ci V8 was installed in 2016, and it was assembled with an Eagle cast steel crankshaft, Scat forged I-beam connecting rods, and Icon forged pistons with chromoly rings, while additional equipment includes an Edelbrock RPM Air-Gap intake manifold, a Holley 870cfm carburetor, Brodix cylinder heads, ARP hardware, a hydraulic roller camshaft, and a Cloyes billet timing set. Cooling is provided by an aluminum radiator.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed 700R4 automatic transmission that was installed in 2010 along with a limited-slip differential. Long-tube headers flow to a dual exhaust system.
