Modified LS3-Powered 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe

Description

Celebrated for its timeless styling, lightweight F‑body platform, and virtually limitless customizing potential, Chevrolet’s first‑generation Camaro remains a cornerstone of the American performance scene.

This modified 1968 Chevrolet Camaro coupe has been refinished in Garrett Red Pearl with dark grey stripes, and it features a custom front valance in place of the factory bumper, an aftermarket cowl hood, shaved side markers, and flush‑mounted front and rear glass. Power comes from a 6.2‑liter LS3 V8 equipped with Holley Sniper fuel injection, a Summit Racing intake manifold, MSD ignition coils, and an aluminum radiator. The engine is paired with a 4L80E 4‑speed automatic transmission driving a 9-inch rear end with a limited‑slip differential (LSD).

The chassis has been upgraded with a Total Cost Involved front subframe and suspension assembly utilizing Mustang II‑style geometry, rack‑and‑pinion steering, and power‑assisted Wilwood Superlite disc brakes. Inside, the cabin features Recaro front bucket seats trimmed in black leather, a matching rear bench, a roll bar, Dakota Digital gauges, Vintage Air climate control, and an upgraded Pioneer touchscreen audio system with Hertz Mille speakers and subwoofers.

This modified 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is now offered with service records, a car cover, two battery trickle chargers, and a clean Illinois title in the seller's name.

Servicing & Documentation

Please see “Service Records” attached for details about the build.

From the seller: “According to the previous owner, the car was refinished in 2006 following exterior modifications that included a cowl hood, custom front valance, shaved side markers, and flush‑mounted windshield and back glass. The 6.2‑liter LS3 V8 was installed in 2023 by G&L Auto Service of Macon, Georgia, along with supporting upgrades, and is paired with a 4L80E four‑speed automatic transmission. Chassis modifications, braking upgrades, and the updated interior were completed prior to the current owner’s purchase in 2026. We just had the air conditioning recharged last week and it blows cold! This is a very nice car with over $244,000 invested in upgrades and service work."
