Gateway Classic Cars of Milwaukee is excited to present this sharp
1968 Chevrolet Chevelle. This Blue beauty is a real "138" true SS
car with a date correct "CE" 396 V8 engine and 4 speed manual
transmission. During the restoration of this sharp SS the paint was
completely redone to a two toned blue and black with a black vinyl
top. It has had new black vinyl interior installed to keep the
classic flow of the car. Although the whole car is black and blue
inside and out, when you pop open the hood and see the big block
you will notice that is was painted Hugger orange. This combination
is one of the most sought-after combinations in the Chevelle world.
This SS is powered by a monster 396 Turbo Jet engine with 375 HP
and paired to a 4-speed manual transmission. Technically this car
is numbers matching due to the warranty replaced CE block that was
installed in the car while it was under the GM warranty. The paint,
interior, drivetrain, and suspension have all been refurbished and
ready to be shown or even enjoyed as a driver. Options include; Air
conditioning optioned but not hooked up, AM/FM radio, power brakes
and steering, vinyl top and interior, raised letter radial tires,
Rally wheels, and even a Posi 12 bolt rear end. This car is perfect
for a collection or to be driven and enjoyed. Government-mandated
side marker lighting was incorporated, with early 1968 SS 396 light
bezels seen with the SS 396 nomenclature - at some point in the
later production cycle the engine callout had a 396 also shared
with the Chevy II Nova SS (the side marker bezels, also sourced
from the Chevy II Nova in 307, 327, and 396 displacements) had the
engine displacement except for the six cylinder models).
Black-accented Super Sports had F70x14 red-stripe tires and a
standard 325-horsepower 396-cubic-inch Turbo-Jet V8 engine with the
special twin-domed hood; 350 and 375-horsepower 396 engines were
optional. This Chevelle has the most powerful option with its 375
HP 396 engine. The SS 396 sport coupe once started at $2,899 and
continue to gain value as they get harder and harder to find. For
