For Sale: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible

The Camaro received minor changes for its second year with the grille taking on a more horizontal look and the vent windows were dropped while flow through ventilation was added. 235,147 Camaros were built in 1968 with nearly 17,000 V8 convertibles and another 12,000 six cylinder topless cars. That's a lot of cars in just the second year of production indicating Chevrolet's confidence and the public's positive reaction. Interestingly, the convertible tops were available in the same color options as the vinyl tops; white, black, and blue.

For consignment, a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro convertible with a title verified 159,193 actual miles. Not only does this car wear a desirable color and have a convertible top, but it retains its numbers matching 327ci V8 under the hood.

Exterior
A fantastic blacked out horizontal ribbed front grille leads the way with outboard exposed headlights, inboard markers and a small bowtie in the center. The two stage Butternut Yellow paint is dressed with a black nose stripe with no break for an engine call out. Simple shiny bumpers are on and looking great as well as other attachments in the shine department including a single side view mirror, wipers and window trimmings, door trim, door handles and epic faux vents on the hood. On top is a black canvas top which has a plastic rear window with some hazing and keeping with the pony car theme, a short trunk deck cascades to the rear fascia which sports chrome bezels and inset tail lights flanking the black fuel filler cap under a spoiler. 14-inch Chevrolet Rally wheels where 225/70R14 tires with a late 2020 date code. Imperfections include various inclusions in the paint, touched up chips, orange peel surface, bubbles on horizontal areas and low panels, tears in the top where the rail bends, evidence of filler, and door edge chips.

Interior
1968 goodness here begins with the black vinyl door panels, smooth sections sandwiching the stitch patterned center that holds the emblem and hardware. From there, the monochromatic interior brings in white vinyl bucket seats and a red rear bench, all in very nice shape with some wear on the piping of the passenger seat. Moving to the dash, a 3 spoke steering wheel fronts a duo of the deep set round gauges within black bezels in a steeply angled dash with round, chrome vents. The center portion of the dash is adorned with a simulated wood faceplate that surrounds the vent panel and AM/FM/Cassette radio. The faux forest influence continues on the center console with a bit darker wood where a Hurst shifter is provided to the lucky driver of this pony car, and it's all in very nice condition. We have black carpet on the floor and the trunk holds a period correct plaid mat which shows some age and there is surface rust and a repair on the stamped steel below it.

Drivetrain
Cleanly presented under the hood is the numbers matching 327ci V8, rated at 210 horsepower and fueled via a Holley 4-barrel carburetor. Behind it, a Muncie M20 4-speed manual transmission from 1964/65, which transfers power to the 10 bolt rear axle. The car has power brakes, power steering, and headers.

Undercarriage
Generally clean underneath with minimal surface rust and only residual oil about. We do note the trunk floor repair visible underneath which appears to be a solid repair. Dual exhaust runs through Super Turbo mufflers and exits discreetly in back. Power disc brakes are up front with power drums in back and suspension is the standard set up of front coil springs and rear leaf springs.

Drive-Ability
She starts right up and we roll the original 327 around the test loop where it proves to have adequate power and the car provides straight tracking and a smooth ride, helped in part by the 70 series sidewalls. We do note the clutch shudders a bit, but all functional items are working as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

Easily among the top, (and quickest), sellers here at Classic Auto Mall, 1968 Camaros are beloved around the world and especially right here the U, S and A!
