427-Powered 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe 4-Speed

Description

Created in response to the Ford Mustang's success, the Chevrolet Camaro took a more muscular path from the get-go. Notable updates for 1968, the Camaro's model year, included federally required side marker lights and a revised grille design.

This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro coupe is now powered by a 427ci Turbo‑Jet V8 paired with a four‑speed manual transmission. Finished in red with a black bumblebee nose stripe, the car rides on chrome Cragar wheels and features a black vinyl interior accented by wood‑veneer trim, and it boasts SS badging. The seller reports having only driven approximately 300 miles over the past four years.

Mechanical updates in recent ownership reportedly include a new clutch as well as hydraulic rollers and lifters installed. Suspension upgrades include Hotchkis front and rear shocks, BMR front lowering springs, and BMR upper and lower suspension components. Additional maintenance included tire installation in 2024 and replacement rocker arm nuts along with a new water pump in 2025.

This 427‑powered 1968 Chevrolet Camaro 4-speed is now offered with a clean California title in the seller’s name.
