Was at a prominent collector car dealership Friday to view a '69 Z/28. They had a nicely restored bench seat column auto muscle car displayed. I asked what the market was for automatic muscle cars. He held hands about two feet apart and said "This is the muscle car market." Then he moved them about 6" apart and said "This is the market for automatics." Went on to say they eventually sell, but it takes longer and just the right buyer.
Personally, I wouldn't rule out an excellent original TH350/TH400 Camaro. Would not consider a Powerglide.
Did you ask his opinion for bench vs. buckets?
Or column shift vs. floor shift?

Didn't sound like it mattered. Some guys like a bench seat.

In terms of value...I think the P/G Drum brake options hurt it a bit.

Not sure I can see a low mile rust free Rally Green Camaro SS dropping much below $25k, even being a PG automatic. They're just too sought after by restorers and restomodders alike.

Not that i need more camaros but dont want to be upside down in it. Also its nice when you find a 1 owner un hacked car missing nothing with lots of paperwork

The TH350 wasn't a RPO for any car until 1969. I think I recall reading that there were some 1968 field test cars built with TH350s though. Regardless, a three-speed automatic wouldn't have shown on the option list for a '68 SS350.

My 2 cents 25.000 tops

The TH350/TH400 comment didn't apply to this car; just my personal thoughts. The Powerglide was crude & obsolete long before Chevy discontinued it. My cousin bought a new '66 Chevelle SS396 convert and still I recall how excited I was-until I saw the console. I was 14 at the time.

I can appreciate unhacked original cars, but I agree with BARRY. $25,000 tops and then would be afraid I would lose a few grand after I played with it.
I had a 69 Camaro SS L35 Convertible automatic that was a nice original drivetrain car. The body had been repaired and repainted only 45,000 documented miles. Took forever to sell the car. The automatics just are so slow to sell IMO.
Having a 325HP didn't help it.
