This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS 396 Tribute is a masterclass in
muscle car design. Draped in a slick black paint job, this Camaro's
aggressive stance is accentuated by its Super Sport hood and chrome
Foose wheels. The 17-inch rims are wrapped in Nitto NT555 255/50R17
rubber in the rear and Maxxis VICTRA MAZ1 215/45ZR17 tires up
front, giving this classic a modern footprint. The iconic RS hidden
headlamps add an air of mystery, while the factory-correct spoiler
emphasizes its performance pedigree. Chrome bumpers and trim
provide a striking contrast against the noir exterior, creating a
look that's both menacing and refined.
Inside, the optional deluxe interior showcases a blend of comfort
and sportiness. Black vinyl bucket seats offer both style and
support, complemented by a factory-style console housing essential
gauges. The dash features factory gauges including a tachometer,
while an aftermarket AM/FM radio adds a touch of modern
convenience. A tilt steering column topped with a three-spoke
stainless wheel and wooden rim provides both comfort and classic
style. The four-speed Hurst Competition Plus shifter stands ready
for action, a tactile reminder of the power at your command.
Lifting the SS hood reveals a freshly built 396 cubic inch V8,
bored out to 402 cubic inches according to the owner. This
powerhouse boasts only 70 miles since its recent rebuild, featuring
KB pistons and a hydraulic roller camshaft. A Weiand Street Warrior
aluminum intake manifold topped with a Holley-style four-barrel
carburetor feeds the beast, while Hedman headers expel spent gases
through a FlowMaster dual exhaust system. Power is transferred
through a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission to a recently built
12-bolt rear end with 3.55 gears and a Posi-traction differential.
The suspension is upgraded with Competition Engineering adjustable
drag shocks and a rear sway bar, enhancing both straight-line
performance and cornering ability. Power steering and power brakes
with front discs ensure this Camaro is as easy to control as it is
quick.
