1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible 2-Door 5.7L
1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible 2-Door Description
Up for auction is my 1968 Camaro Convertible SS (tribute). I am selling the car because I got a new daily driver. You'll be hard pressed to find a more reliable and dependable classic Camaro.
Again, this car was my daily driver for 2 1/2 years. I go to work at the wee hours of the morning and don't get out until very late, so the convertible option was a great feature for me living in South Texas. I have done very little to the car since purchasing it. The modifications I had done were 1) Grant removable steering wheel (for security), 2) overdrive transmission (so I could drive at low rpm's on the expressway), and 3) vehicle converted to an internal voltage regulator.
Other than that the car is the exact way I got it. Please let the pictures speak for themselves. Although this was my daily driver for years, I pampered the car and drove it a very sort distance to work everyday. One of the best features of this car is the Overdrive Transmission. It is out of a Buick Grand National, and the high overdrive allows for effortless highway cruising. Please note that the car isn't perfect. It has normal wear and tear from normal use, but again please let the pictures speak for themselves, this car has received many awards at local car shows. I have about 35k invested since receiving the car, so I feel the low reserve is adequate.
The car is equipped with Heidts suspension and coilovers up front. The car drives and corners extremely well! The car has a slight ticking/knocking noise occasionally upon startup (disappears after 30seconds) that has been there since day one, I'm told it might be a lifter. None the less, this is a reliable car that can sit in traffic on a 100+ degree day with no hiccups. I don't know the actual mileage of the engine, but I know it's way less than the 10k I have here. The motor sounds unbelievable and turns heads too! I will be keeping the custom plates for my new driver.
More specs below, please message me if you have any questions, I'll be happy to give you more details and answer any questions, as well as a phone number to call. I also have paperwork for the car from various shops and mechanics that spans back more than two decades.
