I have a garage find '68 Camaro that is all mostly original. I have the original owners manual and original owners protection plan warranty booklet with protecto plate. NOT VERY COMMON TO COME ACROSS THESE. It is missing the driver door panel, front bumper, right rear quarter window and maybe a few other minor things.
You can pretty much tell what is missing from the pictures, it is not a lot in reality for a car like this. All the original glass is there except for the rear quarter roll down window. A lot of original parts are in the trunk. The vin tells me that it is an original 327 210 Horsepower 8cyl, 2dr. Sport Coupe made in the Los Angeles, CA factory. It was then brought to Salinas, CA where it was originally sold.
The paint code is Grotto Blue, it is still the original color but looks like it has been resprayed many many years ago. It has the standard blue bucket seats. The rear end has 3.07 Posi gears. Car has never left California and has been sitting in a garage for a little over 17 years. There is some minor rust and surface rust on the car from it sitting for those 17 years but nothing major or crazy like rotted floor or trunk pans. Basically it is nothing that cannot be fixed with some simple body work. It is perfect for someone looking to do a full restore on it.
It is a RUNNER. Rebuilt all new internals. New wheel cylinders,drums,shoes all the way around. Basically all that's left to do is make her cosmetically pretty. Plenty of potential.

And thank you very much. Almost everyone has told me not to sell it. So far no good offers or good enough trades. So probably going to.

I find it interesting that, that big beefy american v8 only kicks a little over 200hp... Torque for days, but its the low hp number that always gets me about american muscle cars. Haha great find thou man, camaro's are tight.

327 was as big as it got until they came out with the 427. just like today are electric cars are small by the time they are as old as this car there will be somethig biger and better.
