For Sale: 1968 Chevrolet Biscayne in Columbus, Ohio

Vehicle Description

$17,995

This 1968 Chevrolet wagon is about as unique as they come. Originally a 4-door like every Chevy wagon built after 1960, it has been converted into a 2-door and has the perfect rat rod look without being overdone. It's finished in matte black with red pin striping and sits on a staggered set of black and red JEGS wheels with 235/40R17s up front and 265/35R20s out back. The early Corvette-style side pipes, aggressive stance, and custom details get attention everywhere it goes. Inside, the entire interior was built around the same red and black theme with custom bucket seats, a tilt column, 3-spoke steering wheel, a one-off tube steel dash and center console, JEGS gauges, B&M gated shifter, push-button start (key still required), and rear airbags with the compressor controlled by a dash switch. It also has working under-dash A/C that blows nice and cold. The aftermarket radio powers up but currently has no sound, and the speedometer and odometer are not working.

Power comes from a dependable late-'70s GM 350 backed by a smooth-shifting TH350 automatic and a GM 10-bolt rear with 3.55 gears. The engine has been dressed with a new front runner accessory system running the A/C compressor, alternator, water pump, and power steering pump. It's topped with an aluminum dual-plane intake, Holley 600 CFM 4-barrel carburetor, custom air cleaner, MSD ignition, and long-tube headers that give it the sound you'd expect from a hot rod like this. Cooling isn't an issue thanks to a JEGS 3-core aluminum radiator with one electric pusher fan and two puller fans, so it'll happily cruise even on the hottest summer days.

Mechanically, the front suspension has been completely freshened up with new bushings, inner and outer tie rods, ball joints, and springs, making it drive much tighter than you'd expect. It has also been upgraded with power front disc brakes and drums in the rear, giving it solid stopping power to match the V8. This isn't a restored numbers-matching car, and it was never meant to be. It's a well-built custom that starts easily, runs strong, shifts great, stays cool, and turns heads everywhere it goes. If you're looking for something different that you can actually drive and enjoy, this wagon is guaranteed to draw a crowd every time you park it.
