For more information on this vehicle visit http://tinyurl.com/6vdz5to This awesome black and red 1968 Camaro, which features big block power, a proven automatic transmission, and a killer stance that's augmented by custom painted wheels, has been drawing stares ever since it rolled off the trailer! Take one look down the sides of the cars slick black body and it becomes very obvious that great care was taken to ensure all gaps were at better than factory standards. Step closer to the wet-look two-tone paint and check out straight and ripple-free panels that aren't plagued by any rust or major imperfections. Grab the well-adjusted hood and feel how smoothly it opens to provide an excellent fit which is set off by a glossy clearcoat finish. Bathed in black paint, detailed with House of Kolor Candy Apple Red stripes and buffed to a brilliant shine, this top-notch pro-tourer features a great combination of skilled workmanship and first-rate finishing that transforms a traditional pony car shape into a multi-dimensional show piece. Lift up the cars hydraulic hood and you'll find a 600 horsepower, 502 cubic inch GM Performance Parts monster block! At the top of that engine, a custom chrome air filter sends air through a reusable Spectre filter to a large 4-barrel Holley carburetor that's equipped with braided fuel lines, heavy duty fittings and an Auto Gage fuel pressure gauge. Under that carburetor, an impressive high rise Holley Strip Dominator aluminum intake sits between aluminum GM Performance Parts heads and custom Mac's Movie Cars valve covers which are branded with Candy Apple "Black Thunder" scripts. Below those valve covers, the silver engine block is bordered by ceramic coated long tube headers which are interwoven with Mallory Pro Sidewinder plug wires that have been fitted with Accel end caps. And behind those valve covers, an MSD Pro-Billet distributor is centered between an MSD Blaster II coil, which is connected to an interior mounted MSD 6AL ignition system, and a polished master cylinder. At the front of the motor, new V-belts spin a chrome alternator and a chrome power steering pump behind a chrome fan shroud; and a heavy duty aluminum radiator sends coolant to chrome flex hoses, a chrome thermostat housing, and a custom fabricated overflow tank. The buff 502 cubic inch engine sends power to a tough TCI Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed transmission which spins a 12 bolt Posi-traction rear end with familiar 3.31 gears. Holding that stellar drivetrain off the ground is a completely restored factory suspension which benefits from front and rear Suspension Techniques sway bars, fresh polyurethane bushings and power rack and pinion steering. Stops come quickly thanks to a Wilwood Dynalite four wheel disc system which features red Wilwood calipers and drilled and slotted rotors at all four corners; and exhaust is handled by a fresh mandrel bent system which growls through an X-pipe crossover and wicked sounding single chamber mufflers. At the corners of the car, custom painted 18 inch Boss Motorsports wheels spin 225/45 front and 275/40 rear Falken FK452 radials. Open the door of this awesome Camaro and you'll find a completely restored houndstooth interior which features tasteful custom pieces that give the car a clean and modern appearance. The black and white seats are firm and show no sign of dry rot or tearing. And deluxe black door panels, which present a like-new appearance, hang billet window cranks below cool billet lock knobs. Between the seats, new black carpet provides a base for the cars Hurst Quarter Stick Pistol Grip shifter; and in front of the seats, a crack-free dash holds a custom silver gauge insert with great looking Auto Meter gauges between billet accessory knobs and an MP3 compatible Retro Sound head unit. In front of the driver, an awesome looking satin finished steering wheel holds a traditional red, white and blue Chevy horn button above billet stalks for a tilt steering column. And at the back of the cockpit, big Dual speakers hang over a fully restored trunk which includes a correct mat, a correct jack and a full size spare tire. With 502 cubic inches of big block power under the hood and a whole roster of top-notch custom equipment that's already spec-d and seamlessly bolted together, this '68 Camaro is your ticket to instant gratification!
