This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro coupe was acquired by the seller in 2012 and modified with a 383ci V8, 200-4R four-speed automatic transmission, and a Moser 12-bolt rear end with a 3.42:1 Positraction differential. The car is refinished in red with white stripes over black vinyl upholstery and equipped with 17″ American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels, Baer power front disc brakes, Koni adjustable shocks, RideTech subframe connectors, Detroit Speed electric hideaway headlight motors, a cowl-induction hood, TMI bolstered front bucket seats, an Ididit tilt steering column, and an AM/FM radio. This Camaro coupe is now offered with a car cover, service records, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.
The body has been refinished in red with white over the top stripes. Rally Sport-style features include concealed headlights with Detroit Speed electric motors, RS badging, lower bodyside moldings, and backup lights mounted below the rear bumper. Additional exterior details include a cowl-induction hood, front and rear spoilers, dual side mirrors, and chrome bumpers with rubber-inset guards.
Polished 17″ American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels are wrapped in Falken Azenis RT660 tires measuring 235/45 up front and 275/40 in the rear. Suspension modifications include tubular front control arms, Koni adjustable shocks, RideTech subframe connectors, and a quick-ratio steering box. Stopping power is provided by power-assisted Baer front disc brakes along with rear drums.
The cabin features TMI bolstered front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in black vinyl, complemented by color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Appointments include a center console with a Shiftworks shifter conversion kit, an aftermarket AM/FM radio, and a heater.
The Abarth steering wheel is mounted to an Ididit column. Instrumentation includes a 120-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, an analog clock, and auxiliary gauges for voltage, coolant temperature, fuel level, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows 8k miles, approximately 3,500 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 383ci V8 was sourced from Racing Head Services and equipped with a Holley 780-cfm Street Avenger four-barrel carburetor with an electric choke, an Edelbrock Performer Air-Gap intake manifold, Doug’s Headers, a cowl air cleaner with a K&N filter, an MSD distributor and coil, a serpentine accessory belt drive system, and a Be Cool aluminum radiator with dual electric fans.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Bowtie Overdrives Level 3 200-4R four-speed automatic transmission featuring a 2,000-rpm stall torque converter. The rear end consists of a Moser 12-bolt unit housing a 3.42:1 Positraction limited-slip differential. Flowmaster mufflers are fitted. A replacement fuel tank was installed in April 2022.
