1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS - Tuxedo Black Rotisserie Restoration
This '68 Camaro RS/SS is the result of a comprehensive rotisserie restoration where every single part was replaced, replated, or refurbished to factory specifications. The restoration was meticulously focused on the use of factory-correct GM numbered parts wherever possible - the kind of attention to authenticity that separates the highest quality restorations from a quick refresh. Attention was paid to even the smallest of details, including the correct Norwood, OH firewall stamps, the kind of touch only knowledgeable Camaro collectors will catch but that absolutely matters when documenting a serious restoration. The result is a car that genuinely looks as if it just rolled off the assembly line in 1968.
Mechanically, this Camaro is an outstanding example throughout. The engine was completely refreshed, restamped, and reassembled by Fillmore Machine of Naples - a respected name in the restoration community - while the original 3-speed automatic transmission received a complete refresh with the original pan reinstalled to preserve authenticity.
The exterior is coated in correct A-code Tuxedo Black accented by crisp white sport striping - one of the most striking factory color combinations available on the '68 Camaro. All of the gleaming brightwork demonstrates that absolutely nothing was overlooked during the restoration process. The car sits on correct 14-inch rims wrapped in period-perfect Firestone redline tires. Look closely and you'll find the correct vacuum-operated headlights that were used only on the 1968 model year - fully restored and functioning as they should. Exhaust note is provided by the Concours Exhaust Package from Gardner Exhaust, delivering the proper sound that any serious '68 deserves.
Inside, matching Black Custom Bucket seats invite you into a fully restored cockpit. New factory-correct wiring harnesses were installed throughout, tied into a new factory-correct fuse panel - exactly the kind of behind-the-scenes work that ensures decades of reliable operation. All gauges were restored with new boards, bulbs, and connectors, including the highly desirable working Tic-Toc-Tach. The radio retains its original faceplate but features modern Bluetooth functionality - the only non-original concession in an otherwise period-correct interior.
Every detail demonstrates the time and care invested to produce one of the nicest '68 Camaros on the market today. The vehicle shows less than 100 miles added since restoration completion.
