With its original 396 and correct Muncie 4-speed, his cool Camaro isn't some crazy, ustom pro-touring marvel. Its standard Blue interior trades outrageous leather liners for simple and subtle vinyl.

Ultimately, t all adds up to one lean, ean Chevrolet dream machine that, espite being a few years out of the paint booth, till stops traffic.
When it comes to purity of form, can't really think of a better looking car than Chevrolet's 60s-era Camaro. It's a solid and straightforward design that continues to age exceptionally well, specially in the company of its exaggerated and extroverted competitors. At the front of this super cool F1, stainless-trimmed grille hangs clear parking lamps and a familiar "SS" emblem between bright halogen headlights, spotless chrome bumper and a small Camaro header script. At the top of that grille, correct Super Sport hood reflects a perfect combination of like-new glass, atin-finished wipers and mirrored stainless trim. At the sides of that hood, monochromatic profile hangs beefy "396" emblems and flowing "Camaro SS" scripts between familiar door handles, tainless rocker guards and a correct chrome mirror. And at the back of the car, n option D80 decklid and second spotless bumper frame a Satin Black valence, 68 Camaro-exclusive taillights, nd an "SS" branded fuel filler.

If you wanted to factory-order 1968's top-of-the-line Camaro, ou had one option: 396 cubic inches of big block Detroit iron! At the top of this coupe's numbers-matching, MQ" branded mill, chrome, orrectly decaled air cleaner funnels wind into a familiar Winters intake via a big Holley carburetor. At the sides of that intake, potless chrome valve covers reflect fresh AC Delco Premium Wires above fully restored exhaust manifolds. At the ends of those wires, traditional points distributor rides between a new coil, rebuilt wiper motor and a beefy Delco Moraine brake booster. And, pposite those wipers, heavy-duty radiator sends coolant around a shrouded fan via reproduction GM hoses and fresh tower clamps. Naturally, his coupe's impressive engine bay, omprised of smooth Satin Black fenders, orrect markings and new, actory-accurate decals, s clean and well detailed.
