Vehicle Description
This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Tribute backs up its intimidating
appearance with a performance-built big block V8 and a close ratio
four-speed. And as you dig deeper, everything from the fit of the
panels, to the added driver touches tells you this mean machine is
also a thoughtful total build.
This Camaro is the right combination of vintage looks mixed with
some desirable upgrades. It all starts with the first impression
the paint gives. You got some great blue options from the factory
in 1968, however, this upgrade has a nice metallic element and a
deep clearcoat luster. It allows the sunlight to really radiate of
the body panels and show off the crisp creases of the well-done
sheetmetal. The front end has a nice aggressive blackout treatment
as the SS bumblebee stripe package combines with the upgraded RS
front end and chin spoiler. The rear also has its own aggressive
style with the D80 rear spoiler and serious large exhaust tips. And
everything from the louvered hood trim to the polished Cragar
wheels with extra large/meaty rear tires give this the look of both
quality and power.
The full black interior is absolutely muscle car friendly. But
there's more going on here. It has an overall comfortable style,
and there are even nice upgrades like the cup holder center console
and provisions for R134a air conditioning (will need servicing to
blow cold again.) And because they took the time to upgrade this
Camaro, they also made sure it was a more driver-focused machine.
That's why you have an upgrade sports steering wheel and a SunPro
tach prominently mounted on the column. Add in the full auxiliary
readout trio and a Hurst floor shifter, and you know there's
something special under the even before you twist the key and hear
it roar.
The look like they couldn't stuff any more motor in this engine
bay. Plus, the tidy look with slick inner walls, bright Chevrolet
valve covers, good hoses, and a blue matching air grabber all make
sure you'll proudly show off this setup. The 454 cubic-inch V8 is
the big boy amongst the big blocks, and this one has been upgraded
further with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, a high rise intake,
and ceramic-coated long tube headers feeding the dual exhaust. It
even has the right supporting component, like an MSD electronic
ignition and a large aluminum radiator. It's a seriously mean
machine, and so you take firm control as the Muncie M21 close ratio
four-speed manual transmission feeds a stout 12-bolt rear end.
Actually, firmness and control are central themes to this Camaro,
and so that's why you also have subframe connectors and traction
bars. Add in power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and
wide BF Goodrich T/As, and this is sturdy package that feels as
confident as a firm handshake.
