1968 Chevrolet Camaro

Up for Sale - my 1968 Camaro that I have owned for 13 years. I own the car and I have the title in hand. You are looking at my personal dream that has undergone an extensive restoration over a 6 year period that was just complete last year. We stripped everything out of the car and sand blasted the entire frame and body to bare metal. Any bad metal was replaced as you will see in the pictures. The vision of this car was to rebuild and keep the car both exterior and interior as original as possible. The things I changed to modern day were the motor and drivetrain becauseI wanted to be able to drive this car anywhere with zero worries and I created just that. As with anything in the classic car business you pursue perfection but it never happens - It surely wasn’t due to lack of money invested or time. I have well north of $55,000 in this car so understand this you are getting a very, very solid and amazing looking 1968 Camaro that will blow the doors of most modern day sports cars in a straight line. Vin # shows this as a 6 Cylinder Car. I will break down the car as follows:
