Description

Vehicle Specs

This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible presents an increasingly rare opportunity to own a true American icon with a remarkable story and a highly original pedigree. With just one devoted owner since 1978, this first-generation Camaro has been lovingly maintained for nearly five decades and stands today as a testament to honest preservation, mechanical integrity, and classic design. For enthusiasts who value originality over over-restoration, this car offers the kind of character that can't be replicated.

Under the hood, you'll find the factory numbers matching 327 cubic inch V8 engine, bearing the correct “ME” suffix, rated at 210 horsepower. It's paired with the original 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, delivering smooth and reliable performance that's ideal for effortless cruising. This drivetrain combination is not only period-correct but has remained intact for over 55 years — a rarity in the classic car world and a mark of pride for the seasoned Camaro collector.

Finished in its original C2-coded Ermine White, the car has received just one repaint in basecoat/clearcoat, preserving its authentic appearance while enhancing its road presence. The paint shows well overall and complements the contrasting black convertible top, which is power-operated and functions properly. The factory Code 712 black interior retains its original configuration, including bucket seats and a center console equipped with a functional clock. While the original AM radio remains installed, it is currently inoperative — a minor detail for those seeking period-correct charm.

This Camaro rides on 15-inch rally wheels wrapped in like-new Cooper 225/60R15 tires, offering improved handling while maintaining its vintage look. Recent mechanical updates include new shocks, ensuring a smoother ride, and Flowmaster mufflers, which add a subtle performance tone to the exhaust without overpowering the cruiser nature of this convertible. A small scratch on the windshield — caused by a past wiper blade — is one of the few cosmetic blemishes worth noting, alongside minor flaws expected of a driver-quality unrestored vehicle.

What truly sets this car apart is its unmolested condition. Unlike many first-gen Camaros that have been heavily modified or over-restored, this example retains its originality and period-correct character. From the factory trim to the matching drivetrain, it speaks to a time when muscle cars ruled the streets — and this one still proudly carries that legacy today.

Whether you're looking to enjoy top-down weekend drives or add a well-documented, original drivetrain example to your collection, this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible is a prime candidate. It's a car with a story, a soul, and the kind of authenticity that collectors and enthusiasts crave.
