Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this incredible 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS. First Gen Camaro lovers get a cup of coffee and sit down because we need to talk. The phrase, "Barn Find," may be the most over used automotive description of all time. However, this amazing collectible Camaro has been owned by the consignors family for over fifty years and was just pulled out of the garage for the first time in quite a while. The original NM L48 350/295hp (V-Flint, MS- manual) .....
(3914678 casting#) engine rests under the iconic "Ice tray" hood. In addition, the owner states the powerful mill has never been out of the car. This is a factory four speed SS mated to its original 12-bolt rear differential. Camaro enthusiasts will quickly notice the D80 spoiler which debuted in 1968 and became widely popular. This Camaro will generate massive interest and numerous inquires so please pay attention. The frame rails, floor pans, and trunk appear to be very solid. The original trunk mating and spare tire can still be found resting in their proper position. The owner states this First Gen was never wrecked and repainted only once. It's so original it's mind boggling. Does it need some work? Yes. The front suspension bushings are showing their age for sure and there are some fluid leaks as expected. Before you ask, unfortunately, we do not have the build sheet. Please do not call or email us simply to pick the car apart. This is a rare survivor that will need some attention but you'll be hard pressed to find another two owner, First Gen, vinyl top, four-speed, SS Camaro that's still wearing its original metal. Expect this one to create a feeding frenzy.
