Bought this car from another member on here about 6 months ago. It was everything he said it was and more! I replaced the radiator that had a small leak in it, installed the inner fender wells and put some Fuel rail covers on it. I also cleaned up a lot of the wiring and made it safer for the trunk mounted battery by putting in a start em up kit and solenoid.

THIS CAR IS FAAAAST and man does it handle! Totally set up for Autocross and street. Just needs the interior to be completed and to paint the fenders and you can drive it anywhere. I love it, but miss my convertible so looking to get into a Convertible Camaro or other convertible muscle car. If you have something lets talk. Here is the list... A TON has been done to this car. It truly is awesome. I put about 1500 miles on it.

68 Camaro RS factory A/C car

L92 from an Escalade with 20k on it

Fuel Rail Covers

Wegner pullies and accessories

Cam and spring swap with LS3 intake

It doesn't have a headliner or interior panels. I have a leather covered rear seat also but it needs to be cut to fit the min-tub

Schroth 4 point harness also

Getting many questions on this so figured I would answer some of the most common ones here.

1. Car is located North of Boston MA.

2. Yes the car can be driven anywhere but since I am in the Northeast and this time of year is suspect with weather, that is your call.

3. The rear suspension is a RIDETECH 4 LINK. The Mini tub is DSE.

3. The Fuel rail covers were something I bought and put on the motor. It is not a 5.7L Corvette motor as the covers indicate. Engine info in the ad is correct.

4. I am NOT interested in trades for motorcycles, or boats. If you have a convertible muscle car I am willing to listen, but prefer to go back to a convertible camaro or chevelle. If I wanted to stay with a hardtop I would keep this in a heartbeat. It has everything I would want in a protouring car and more.

5. The tires DO NOT rub front or rear.

6. First one to come up with the money is the first one to get it. Not fair to hold the car for anyone. If you want it, a 10% non refundable deposit wired will be required with the rest to be wired within 5 business days.

Thanks everyone,

What front subframe is in the car?

Subframe in the front is stock. It has all RIDETECH suspension in the front with TruSteer. This and the widened fenders are what allow it to run 275's on it with no rubbing. 295's will fit as well and maybe 315's but you would have to remove the custom inner fender wells.

Can you text me some pics of the rear suspension? 843-227-4035. How much work would it take to put stock fenders on it?

Yes wide front fender but if you wanted to you could put stock fenders back on.

For those asking about putting stock fenders back on the front, you'd likely have to swap the front wheels out for 18x9's or smaller for that to work. The wheels are Budnik Rocker wheels. You could always pick up a pair of smaller width wheels for the front and throw stock fenders on it. That's what I'd have to do if I bought it. Looks like a very nice car with not much left to make it 100%. GLWS!

Actually because this car has the TruTurn steering system on the front suspension you can stick with the original 18x10 rim that is on it AND the 275 tire with stock fenders. The only change you would have to make is to send the wheels out to get the centers refitted to a different offset.

I know this because my last 68 camaro had the same exact setup suspension wise with STOCK front fenders and STOCK inner fenderwells and I NEVER had rubbing of any kind.

Price drop! Found the convertible I have been waiting for so looking to move the car. If I can't move it in the next 5 days, then I will have to pass on the convertible and will be keeping this car.

$34,000 FIRM FIRM FIRM.

MORE PICS for those of you that wanted suspension pics. I dont have a lift otherwise I would take better pics and this car is sooo low its tough to get underneath it to take pics. Trust me it is solid!!

Please stop asking me if I will sell it for less.... I had it listed for $37,500 and now it is listed for $34,000. If I don't sell it by Dec 27th, the convertible I am looking at goes away and I will be keeping the car.

$34,000 is the LOWEST I WILL GO PERIOD.

Great car, just want to get back into a convertible again. Sold it locally which never really happens to me in Mass. Glad I get to see it go to the finish line.
