Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is beyond excited to be
able to present probably one of the finest custom "1st Gen" Camaros
you've ever laid eyes on... this professionally built, pro touring
style 1968 Chevrolet Camaro! This Camaro, named "Mighty Mouse", is
a complete, top to bottom work of art created by the guys at The
Hill Country Rod Shop in Kingland,TX. over the course of a few
years & no expense was spared. This started off as a labor of love
for the Father/Daughter tandem that have owned this Camaro for the
last 38 years, but somewhere down the line, Dad went crazy on it &
what you see is the result! It is powered by a dynoed & show ready
602hp/587 lb-ft Dart 427CID engine fitted with Mahle aluminum
pistons, an Eagle Knife Edge crank & Eagle H-beam rods, Dart Pro
Platinum Series heads, a Bullet Racing Cams custom ground cam, and
an entire list of high end internals (all available at request), in
addition to the Edelbrock Victor Jr. air gap single plane manifold
that was port matched to the heads, an 850CFM Quick Fuel carb, MSD,
a Vintage Air front runner system, etc... I'm sure you are getting
the picture here, this is all about high end quality & performance.
The power is run through a completely worked Trick Hughes 700R-4
automatic with stall, an Inland Empire 4" high strength aluminum
shaft & into a 3.73 geared GM 12 bolt, laying down all that
horsepower to the pavement.Keeping things pointed in the right
direction is helped with the Heidt "Pro G" front subframe &
suspension, Detroit Speed rear suspension, Competition Engineering
sub-frame connectors & traction bars, Hotchkis Performance sway
bar, rack & pinion steering and Bilstein shocks, tubular A-Arms and
a set of chromed coil overs. Stopping this Mouse is handled with
ease thanks to a Wilwood 13" slotted & drilled rotor/6 Piston set
up & the stance is gorgeous with the 2" dropped spindles, the Boze
Alloy customThe paint scheme was laid down by Lance Liscum at The
Hill Country Rod Shop as well, where all the emblems, marker light
and door handles were shaved and a hand rubbed Viper Red/Black &
Silver paint scheme was applied. The beauty carries over to the
interior, featuring custom Recaro leather seats, Simpson 5-point
harnesses, Dakota Digital, a killer sound system with a USB port
and Bluetooth running through Polk Audio & Focal speakers. This
build is incredible & so is the stance, compliments of a 2" spindle
drop & a wicked set of Boze Alloy custom billet wheels with 19"
9.5's up front and 20" x12's in the mini tubbed rear. If "only the
top of the line" is the way you roll, then this Pro Touring 1968
Camaro is right in your wheelhouse! It has the looks, the neck
snapping performance & the suspension of a road racer, all wrapped
up in a 1968 Camaro wrapper.
