Looks cool, but probably over priced by $70K or so.

You'd think the seller would get the NCRS and then work toward a certification from Joel. RS gas cap kinda' stands out.

A few things I would question if I was a buyer for this car 1968 Camaro VIN 124378N375787
Why does it have a '69 trunk lid?
Why was front subframe changed as it is a '69?
Front brake hose on drivers side is '69 style that would attach in the center to upper A arm hose retainer. Problem is the hose bracket on the frame is for drum brakes so the brake hose is rubbing on frame.....this is a safety issue!
Has the single piston calipers not the four piston type on '68 cars.
Looking at the picture with the driveshaft it appears the screw on the pass side that holds the seatbelt in place is missing as there are no threads poking through. Maybe screw is cross-threaded halfway in?
Is that a parts sticker on the back of the repro spoiler?
Just quoting the seller....&quot;The car is all original and rust free.&quot;
Cool looking car, but seller is looking for way too many $$$!

Really? An MN engine built in February?

The &quot;all original&quot; claim is a stretch-what happened to the black houndstooth interior? Car was originally British Green. There's no hem where the quarter meets the trunk extension-patch panels?

The car has had a lot of restoration work.

It looks like there are 2 sets of photos. My guess is one set from when purchased and one from now when selling. The side pipe covers were different on the first set. The way it sits now it has the Motion style side pipe covers but did not before.

Look at the side pipe routing in the underside pics. 2 different routings.
Way to close to a fuel line and filter for my taste.

Seen the cars in person. used car lot in Lake of the Ozarks , Osage Beach . Was selling it . Very nice car.,but had alot of non matching item on it . Mn stamping looked good . To tell if it's real ,very easy to do . Call Joel , he remembers all the cars they converted !
