Vehicle Description
For 1968, Chevrolet could leave well enough alone with its instant
hit, the Camaro. It had proven a worthy answer to the Mustang, with
sales numbers looking strong and wins racking up on the race track.
The changes from 1967 to 1968 were subtle, but thoughtful. For
example, the vent windows that framed the A-pillars were
eliminated. Since there were no longer the smoker windows, Chevy
had to do something about getting airflow to the driver. GM
installed air vents below the dash; a feature it called
Astro-Ventilation. 1968 Camaro buyers who went for the larger SS
engine got chrome inserts on the hood meant to replicate velocity
stacks. Under that new hood, the available SS 396 cid V-8 now made
350 horsepower in L34-spec. The Camaro Z/28, previously only
available as a track-ready car, was made available for road use in
1968. The Camaro had won 10 of 13 races in the Trans-Am series and
GM had started promoting the Z/28 in brochures, so demand and
production spiked considerably. Z/28 sales jumped to 7,199 in 68.
GM sold 40,977 examples of the RS, and 27,884 of the SS.The build
