Vehicle Description
1968 CHEVROLET CHEVELLE SS 396 BODY-OFF RESTORATION, 138 VIN, A/C,
PS What a looker! This 1968 Chevelle SS has a very beautiful and
bright Yellow paint that certainly stands out from all of the
others. When I look down the sides it is absolutely straight and
has excellent fit and finish. The paint is smooth and very glossy.
Up front- the headlight bezels, grill and bumper have been
replaced. All the stainless trim is polished like chrome. It has
newer weather stripping and door seals. The black vinyl top is in
excellent condition. It sits on a set of 15x8 Chevy Rally wheels
with a set of 295/50/15 Mickey Thompsons on the rear and 15x7 -
245/60/15 on the front for that aggressive look that it deserves.
The undercarriage is very clean metal. The front suspension and
steering has been rebuilt and detailed. The bottom of the motor is
spotless and so is the Turbo 400 transmission. Some features
include: front power disc brakes, new fuel & brake lines, new gas
tank & straps, new sending unit, 12-bolt rear with 3:31 gears and
F40 suspension, rear boxed in control arms with sway bar. It also
has a 2.5" Pypes dual exhaust system that runs all the way out the
back with the correct cowbell exhaust tips. The E-brake assembly is
complete and working. The underside of this Chevelle is very
impressive! The interior is striking! Everything is like new. The
seats have new upholstery and cushions. It has new carpet and a new
headliner. Looking at the dash- it is in excellent condition, it
has the optional roll tach and gauges which all work, heater and
A/C controls slide with ease, retro AM/FM radio and factory SS
steering wheel. All the courtesy lights work. It also offers
aftermarket Chevelle SS floor mats and front and rear seatbelts.
The engine compartment is highly detailed with restored or new
parts. It has a period-correct 396 ci/350 hp motor that has been
completely rebuilt with a few performance upgrades: Pertronix HEI
ignition, Hooker ceramic coated headers, correct factory chrome
valve covers and air cleaner. Other features include: correct 4
barrel quadrajet carburetor with correct fuel line, remote power
steering reservoir, Delco Moraine cadmium plated power brake
booster with the correct proportioning valve, GM hoses with correct
tower clamps, newer A/C components, correct spring type battery
cables with the correct battery top and optional under hood lamp.
The engine compartment is finished in gloss black. It is very clean
and tidy! The trunk is finished with a light coat of splatter
paint. It comes complete with a trunk mat, spare tire, jack
assembly and new weather stripping. This car is as close as you can
get to new. It drives great, looks awesome and sounds even better!
