For Sale at Auction: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro in West Palm Beach, Florida

Vehicle Description

An original California car, this Resto-Mod Camaro is equipped with a 427ci V8 LS7 engine mated to a heavy-duty 4165E automatic transmission with a Gear Vendors overdrive unit. This is no GM crate engine. The engine was built by Turnkey Engineering. The one-piece sheet-metal cowl hood feeds cold air into the LS7427, nestled 2.5" rearward in the engine bay. All wires and sensors are cleverly hidden, for an uncluttered look. The shaved firewall, wraparound engine bay covers and inner fenders were modified for removal. A finished trunk lid with billet hinges and billet hood hinges round out the jewelry box. The car's appearance has been updated and all chrome removed. Handmade steel fills the gaps allowing a modern look. The overall effect is a thoroughly modern update to this Camaro's classic shape. To clean up the greenhouse, all the trim molding was shaved. Utilizing the stock front and rear glass each retain the factory shape. Additionally, the front fenders were extended to the base of the windshield. The clunky factory door handles were swapped out in favor of sleek and functional C-4 Corvette openers. The stock rear wing was modified and laid back to optimize the drag coefficient without compromising downforce. Frenched rear bumper, flush mounted exhaust tips and custom fuel filler cap each complete the look. A bespoke interior combines luxury high-touch services and high-tech accouterments. The entry path is illuminated by LED under door lights. The hand-cut and stitched glove leather covers the interior panels and TMI prototype seats. Dash, headliner, rear package tray and interior accents are trimmed in natural suede and billet aluminum. The cabin is fully Dynamatted throughout. The Marquez dash was modified to accommodate a full complement of Classic Instruments gauges. The center stack houses a USB/iPhone/iPod-compatible Pioneer DVD receiver with backup camera. Arc Audio amplifiers and speakers, as well as LED interior lighting, round out the package. The finished trunk interior matches the main cabin complete with aluminum black plate for custom engraving. The dual-adjustable Viking coilovers and Hotchkiss front tubular control arms hold 2" drop spindles for a lower ride and improved geometry. It has SSBC 8-piston front calipers and 13" Big Bite rotors up front. Bringing up the rear are R1 Big Bore calipers, integrated parking brakes and 12.8" Big Bite cross-drilled rear rotors. Stainless-steel brake lines, an SSBC combo master cylinder with hidden lines and stainless-steel flex hoses round out the package. **DURING CUSTOM RESTORATION THE VIN WAS REMOVED AND RELOCATED. VEHICLE MAY BE SUBJECT TO A VIN INSPECTION DEPENDING ON JURISDICTION REQUIREMENTS**
