1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS

1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible RS/SS – 350 V8 – Red with Black Top

Offered for sale is a well-cared-for 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible finished in Red with a black Bumblebee nose stripe and black convertible top. The car's VIN and body tag both indicate it began life as a Red 1968 Camaro Convertible. While the current 350 V8 engine does not match the VIN, it is a correct 1968 casting that would have been found in RS/SS 350 models. Based on factory tags, componentry, and visual features, this Camaro is believed to have been originally equipped as an RS/SS. It retains its iconic first-generation Camaro style with light restoration and long-term preservation.

The Camaro carries a clean Texas title, and the current owner purchased the car 22 years ago and had it taken to bare metal for a full repaint at that time, with only a small area of the trunk pan requiring metal repair. The remainder of the car is rust-free with no body filler reported. The car received another repaint in 2021, maintaining strong gloss and finish quality. The convertible top shows very well and operates properly. The interior remains tidy and well-maintained. The car runs smoothly with functional major systems. The rear quarter windows require assistance when being raised or lowered.

This 1968 Camaro Convertible, featuring a period-correct 350 V8 paired with an automatic transmission, rust-free condition, quality paintwork, and long-term Texas ownership, is ready to enjoy as a weekend cruiser or serve as a great donor for a full restoration.
