Offering one of the most original first gen Camaro's I have owned or have seen. This is an outstanding original Camaro with documentation. When I purchased the car it had been part of a collection for several years. The car drives outstanding with no rattles or squeaks, 54k documented miles. The underside has a grease type product sprayed on when new, you wipe this stuff off and the underside is like new - amazing. Check out the picture of the rear leaf spring and original spiral shock, once I cleaned off the grease the original paint shined. I spoke with the original owners son, claims his dad had money and would buy cars and seldom drive. The black custom interior is like new with a fold down rear seat and center console, the best original custom interior I have seen in a 68. I have been told the strip has been added since there is no break with the badge. The power plant is the 327 with powerglide auto trans. I added the rally wheels, I have the original wheels that still have the original paint along with the hubcaps. Over my ownership I replaced the grill, the original grill had a small crack. At the same time I updated the headlights, I kept the original ones. I recored radiator keeping the original tanks; replaced the original hoses along with replacing the original date coded spark wires with repro date coded wires. What a joy to drive! I would challenge you to find a better 1968 like this Camaro that you can purchase. Sold, thank you.

Very nice ride! I really like that (rarely seen) original pin stripe down the side of a '68 Camaro. Is that a factory nose stripe, or was it added?
Good luck with the sale

Beautiful car! Am I reading that 1000 mile checkup receipt correctly, they let the owner bring in his own oil for installation? At any rate, gotta love the $6.26 total service bill! Also love the checkerboard sidewall redline spare tire :cool:

----Been a while since I've seen a Dayton "checker board tire". I used to love those tires. Never original to any GM product but cool just the same...….Bill S

Cool car.
I live 10 miles from where Herb Joslin Chevy was located in Traverse City. They weren’t a real performance dealer, but did sell some cool cars back in those days.
This car is of interest to me because I knew Mr Wing through a boss I used to work for. He worked for Cone Drive in TC and was a farmer on the side raising cherries and other fruit. When I saw this car for sale, I contacted a nephew I know thru a friend to tell him it was for sale to have him pass the info on to his family in case other family members might have an interest. We’ve texted back and forth a couple times, but no one has shown a great interest so far.
Too bad, if this was my Grandpa’s car, I’d be fighting to own it.
