1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Description

When your 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 has an amazing shine, upscale appearance, A/C interior, and a big block heart, you know you're looking at something quite special. So enjoy all the details, but don't take too long, or this big block muscle machine will be gone.Let's start with that interesting paint. It might look like a glossy black when there's no light on it, but when you take it out into the sunshine, you see the deep richness that comes from investing in a modern dark purple. The complete professional paintwork and precision panels give the coupe the kind of luster that commands attention. And more than just the interesting paint, you love this coupe because of its iconic presence. The large polished grille, pointed front bumper, nicely integrated rear bumper, and all that complete trim is exactly the kind of brightwork that made the '60s a legendary era for the best muscle cars with flair. The total package is finished off with SS Mag wheels for a truly memorable total presentation.The button-top bucket seat interior dressed in black makes this coupe feel premium and sporty all in the first glance. This impression continues once you hop inside. The door panels are crisp and tight; the headliner is taut; and the carpeting is new. Plus, we all love the center console with Chevy's iconic horseshoe shifter. The three-spoke steering wheel gives you a commanding view of the gauges, including the SunPro auxiliary readouts. And since the Chevelle can carry family and friends in comfort, you'll be you'll love keeping them happy with upgrades like a retrosound AM/FM stereo and the cool breeze of modern R134a air conditioning.Under the hood is a period-correct 396 cubic-inch big block V8. And we love the way this one looks with its Chevy orange radiating a powerful message from within the dark engine bay. The V8 inhales deeply through a Quick Fuel Slayer four-barrel, and it exhales with authority out of a rumbling dual exhaust. But more than just pure power, you're going to spot plenty of the right investments, including new hoses and a newer alternator. Plus, the Champion aluminum radiator means this powerful V8 can stay cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping. So if this sounds like the kind of big block you can enjoy any time, then you'll be happy to hear it also features a stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes.So is this a distinctive classic, or a tire-burning muscle car? The answer to both is: yes. That's why this Chevelle is the perfect coupe for everything you want with an American classic. Don't miss this opportunity, call today!
