1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS Big Block 5-Speed Marina Blue Deluxe Interior

As bold as it is meticulously built, this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS Resto Mod delivers huge power, modern drivability, and unmistakable first-gen Camaro style. At the heart of the build is a big-block 454 V8, styled and badged as a 572, built off a 14015445 Gen IV block and topped with high-performance Brodix Aluminum Race Rite heads. A high-rise intake feeds a Quick Fuel S0950 carburetor, regulated by a Fuel Lab fuel system, giving this drivetrain the airflow and fuel delivery needed to produce serious street power. The engine bay is finished with an HEI ignition, serpentine belt system, Power Grip hose fittings, and a BeCool radiator with dual fans, all working together to keep temperatures stable even under hard use.

Backing the big block is a 5-speed Super Street transmission with overdrive, making this Camaro powerful yet surprisingly road-friendly. Out back, a built 10-bolt rear with 3.90 posi gears, a ladder bar setup, C-clip eliminator, and a G2 differential cover puts the power down reliably. Weld-in subframe connectors tie the car together structurally, while QA1 coilovers at all four corners, tubular A-arms, rack & pinion power steering, and 4-wheel disc brakes with cross-drilled and slotted rotors create a modern, confident driving experience far beyond what the original platform ever offered. Exhaust flows through 2 1/8 Hooker Super Comp headers into stainless Flowmaster mufflers for an aggressive, unmistakable big-block sound.

Finished in striking Marina Blue, the exterior retains classic '68 Camaro proportions but features desirable upgrades such as electric RS hideaway headlights and a cowl hood. The deluxe blue vinyl bucket seat interior with console presents beautifully and has been enhanced with thoughtful modern touches. A retro-style AM/FM/AUX radio, Auto Meter console gauges with red backlighting, a long chrome shifter, and a custom rear interior deck panel with dual speakers give the cabin the perfect blend of vintage and performance styling.

Staggered Billet Specialties wheels complete the look, running 215/40ZR18 tires up front and wider 245/40ZR20 tires in the rear, giving the car a strong, planted stance that matches its performance. An Optima Yellow Top AGM battery ensures reliable starting and power delivery for the upgraded electrical components.

Please note that the Rally Sport package was added, and while the car is powered by a built 454, it has been styled to resemble a 572—a common and visually impressive choice among big-block Camaro builds. The car shows great overall, presenting as a powerful, well-sorted, professionally built Resto Mod that delivers modern performance wrapped in iconic 1968 Camaro style.
