1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible
The Camaro received minor changes for its second year with the grille taking on a more horizontal look and the vent windows were dropped while flow through ventilation was added. 235,147 Camaros were built in 1968 with nearly 17,000 V8 convertibles and another 12,000 six cylinder topless cars. That's a lot of cars in just the second year of production indicating Chevrolet's confidence and the public's positive reaction. Interestingly, the convertible tops were available in the same color options as the vinyl tops; white, black, and blue.���
For consignment, a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro convertible with a title verified 71,100 actual miles. This fine car was restored in the early 2000's and was an AACA Sr. National 1st place winner in 2008 and has also racked up a AACA Jr. award and a VCCA Senior award along with a host of other�AACA awards. We knew as soon as we saw the hubcaps that this car was probably kept as original as possible over the years and our suspicions were quickly confirmed. �We also note that the car will come with a set of rally wheels with red stripe tires.�
Exterior
A fantastic blacked out horizontal ribbed front grille leads the way with outboard exposed headlights, inboard markers and a small bowtie in the center. The two stage Bolero Red paint is dressed with a black nose stripe that pauses to make room for the 327 emblem on the fender. Simple shiny bumpers are on and looking great as well as other attachments in the shine department including a single side view mirror, wipers and window trimmings, door trim, and door handles. On top is a black canvas top which has a fairly clear plastic rear window leading the rear where, keeping with the pony car theme is a short trunk deck, and the rear fascia sports chrome bezels and inset tail lights flanking the red fuel filler cap under a spoiler. Standard issue 14-inch wheels are dressed with factory�covers and are wrapped with thin white walls. Imperfections include numerous areas of bubbling on lower panels and a rust spot behind a wheel opening,
Interior
1968 goodness here where the fully restored interior begins with the red vinyl door panels, smooth sections sandwiching the stitch patterned center that holds the emblem and hardware. From there, the monochromatic interior brings in red vinyl bucket seats and a red rear bench, all in very nice shape. Moving to the dash, a 3 spoke steering wheel fronts a duo of the deep set round gauges within black bezels in a steeply angled dash with round, chrome vents. The center portion of the dash is adorned with a simulated wood faceplate that surrounds the vent panel and AM radio, because in 1968 that's all you needed! The faux forest influence continues on the center console where a horseshoe shifter, perhaps the greatest invention other than the pistol grip, is provided to the lucky driver of this pony car, while bright red carpet just about sears the pupils protected by Camaro branded mats. The trunk holds a period plaid mat and two spares with a towel protecting the underlayment for good measure. The entirety of the interior is a beautifully buttoned up presentation.
Drivetrain
Show worthy so far and the vibe continues in the engine bay where the spotless consignor stated 327ci V8 resides, topped by a 4-barrel carburetor and linked to a Powerglide 2-speed automatic spinning power to the10 bolt rear axle. Power brakes are supplied in the form of drums front and rear.�
Undercarriage
The hits just keep on coming for the undercarriage, as we meet up with a solid and rust free suspension, drivetrain, and floor pan unibody construction. The usual suspects show some very light surface rust, but no structural issues are�to�be seen within miles of this bottom side. Dual exhaust is on for the exhale flows through a stock style muffler before splitting again and terminating behind rear body panels. Suspension consists of coil springs in front and mono leaf springs in the rear.�
Drive-Ability
Red on red will absolutely get your blood going, and so will this original spec'd Camaro. We took it for a test spin and it delivered everything you'd expect from a well preserved and well maintained restored Camaro. Good acceleration, straight tracking, A+ braking were noted and all functions work and it's like leaving a showroom in 1968! While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Some people want their Camaro to be the fastest one around. Others want a great paint job or booming audio system. And many people want it right off the menu, no special orders, no greasy sides, just as it was ordered in 1968. And that's what we have here, a car true to its roots and a shelf full of awards to prove its superiority in the classic car world. With very few exceptions, every 1968 Camaro we've had the pleasure of representing has sold, and often quickly. So don't toss and turn too long on this one!�
