For Sale: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro in Hampton, New Hampshire

1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible – 402ci V8 & Tremec 5-Speed - Professionally Built & Fully-Sorted Restomod

This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible has been built and maintained with an emphasis on quality, drivability, and performance. Finished in red with black stripes, this Camaro is powered by a 402ci V8 built by Shafiroff Racing, and paired with a Tremec TKO-600 five-speed manual transmission. The chassis has been upgraded with a Hotchkis X-brace and Chassis Max Handlebars as well as Right Stuff four-wheel disc brakes, fed by a dual-reservoir master cylinder. 

Unlike many first-gen Camaros that look the part but need sorting, this car has already been properly serviced, upgraded, and dialed-in. It is a turn-key driver that’s ready to be enjoyed immediately.

Serious buyers are encouraged to reach out directly, and I will gladly share more about the build.
