For Sale at Auction: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro in Scottsdale, Arizona

Vehicle Description

This custom 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is powered by a 454ci V8 engine mated to a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission with a Curry 9-ich rear end. It was built from the ground up, except for the finishing bodywork and paint, by a veteran in his garage and completed in 2023. Under the hood is an HP 454ci engine built by Blackfoot Racing and Gibson Performance Engines. The engine is topped with a custom-tuned and color-matching Quick Fuel Brawler by RPM Performance. The ignition is an MSD billet distributor and 6AL Control Module. Keeping things cool is a Ron Davis double-row aluminum radiator with dual 13-inch fans. Steering control is provided with a Sweet Manufacturing-built 12:1 power steering box. Backing up the engine is a Silversport Tremec 5-speed transmission and a narrowed Curry 9-inch rear with 3.89 gears, performance 31-spline T&E axles, Tru Trac differential, 1310 Yoke, 9+ nodular sportsman case with a 9+ race pinon. The Ridetech four-link coilover suspension with a Ridetech rear sway bar keeps all this power on the ground. An Eddie Motorsports billet full serpentine belt drives air conditioning, power steering, alternator and water pump. It rides on custom offset Boze ZE Boost aluminum wheels, with 18x8 Nitto NT555 G2 245/40ZR18 tires on the front and 19x12 Nitto NT555 G2 305/30ZR19 tires on the rear. It is also equipped with Wilwood disc brakes front and rear. Front and rears are drilled and slotted rotors, with 6-piston on the front and 4-piston in the rear, backed by a Wilwood master cylinder. The fully custom TMI interior sports leather seats, a one-piece Charcoal headliner, matching door/quarter interior panels, console, dash cover and rear package tray. The interior is outfitted with a Vintage Air climate-control system, Dakota Digital gauges, leather-wrapped Momo steering wheel, Ididit tilt steering and Nu-Relics power windows with Rod & Kustom remote locks. The interior is finished off with a remote RetroSound head unit with Alpine 6x9 in the rear deck and Alpine 6-inch speakers in the kick panels. This car received a complete frame-off rotisserie restoration. Every panel was replaced with new metal. Heidt's subframe connectors keep the body in-line. The rear wells have been outfitted with Detroit Speed mini-tubs. The door key holes have been shaved and the firewall has been smoothed, with the wiper assembly relocated using a RainGear conversion. It is finished PPG Caught Red Handed with Charcoal striping. The RS-style hidden headlights are powered by a Detroit Speed motor. The undercarriage and inner wheel wells have been sealed and covered with a gloss black Rhino liner. Complete Ridetech coilover suspension with drop spindles, upgraded upper/lower tubular control arms in the front and four-link in the rear are loaded into this car. It also has Ridetech TrueTurn and sway bar upgrades to provide the ultimate in control Dynamat front to back, top to bottom. The doors, roof, door sills, quarters, roof and side cowling are coated with rust proofing. Electrical demands are satisfied with a Painless wiring harness, with the battery moved to the trunk. Billet aluminum parts throughout from Eddie Motorsports include hood hinges and hood catch, rear taillights and side marker bezels, full front grille with headlight inserts, outer and inner door handles, sill plate and quarter-vents, console shift boot bezel and a rearview mirror. The car has a custom TMI interior, with a matching finished trunk that hides the relocated Optima yellow-top battery, which is held in place with an Eddie Motorsports billet battery tray.
