Default Loaded '68 RS/SS

I know we've talked about this one before, but I can't find the old post. My neighbor is interested in this car - I've told him it's priced about 10k high since the original paint doesn't sound salvageable based on the seller's description.

What do you guys/gals think it's worth needing a repaint? Just looking for some informed opinions. Thanks!

This car was on craigslist two days ago, and if I’m not mistaken, the asking price was below $30k... just as you estimated. I remember thinking, this car is finally getting close to selling. I bet he’s just fishing at this price because he threw it on Ebay.

Great car thou with those options...if it was a 67 or 69 price would be ok to put a few $$$ into but 68,s just dont get the love they deserve.

Are they the wrong hood louvers on that car? They look to be for a 1967 Camaro.

Early build 68 cars used the 67 louvers. This was built sept 67. I love this car even though I’m a 67 fanatic

Why does this 68 have the simple nose stripe and not stripe down side of car? Were early cars still using 67 stripe? Todd

The “Hugger” stripe came out with the new 1968 colours released part way through the 68 model year.

Has a LOS cowl tag with a NOR VIN.

Here is what it says in ad.......

"10a los yy 730 - 1st week of oct 1967 an early #333 norwood vin with a los cowl tag i added a photo of the quarter panel stamp date very early special order body shipped from norwood to l.a."

He certainly has tried a new approach for selling a car with mixed assembly plant tags.

I understood that the small blocks got the finned SS hood louvers in 68 and the big blocks got the new designed louvers.
