This Chevelle has been on my mind for several days, I love this car! If it were a '67 it would now be in my garage.
For the record, I am not the "Iowa Guy" who looked it over. Someone please buy it so I can put it out of my mind!

----To the guys that know, the shifter is obviously in 2nd or 4th, but should it be that close to the seat?......Bill S

Factory Muncie shifters have a lot of wiggle room...at least in bench seat Novas. Could be the seat is all the way forward?? Worth a closer look.

Nice car...key in the dash!

Is the color Seafrost Green Metallic? My dad had a '68 Chevelle and it looks like his.Depending on the lighting the color looked grey or greyish green.

If it’s the Real Deal (born with Powertrain) with that mileage, it should have been bought already, providing there is no big issue hiding.

I would assume if it were a ‘66 or ‘67 it would command more attention??

C'mon now, don't be prejudiced against the third gen body styles.
I had a '68 SS 4 speed bench and that is the genu-ine girl friend shifter...

‘68’s are criminally overlooked but one of my personal favorites. Love those horizontal slit tail lights & the key on the dash!

Proverbial red headed step child. '68 Camaros seem to fall into the same pattern as well as the Vette's...what's with that ?

68’s FTMFW. Especially Camaros.
