Stay tuned...apparently lateral-g.net has some sticky rules about listing cars for sale...

Here's the add I had posted.
My 68 has the following major upgrades:

• ZZ502 with an Edelbrock RPM Air Gap intake and Edelbrock Performer 825cfm carb, Holley blue electric fuel pump (makes about 550HP and 575TQ)
• TKO-600 5 speed, 12" McLeod clutch, McLeod scatter shield, Centerforce flywheel
• Global west tubular upper and lower control arms with del alum bushings, Hotchkiss sway bar, fast ratio steering box and power steering
• Moser 12 bolt rear end with Detroit True Trak limited slip, 33 spline axels with tapered ends and pressed on bearings, Ford 9" housing ends
• 3 leaf rear springs with Poly bushings
• SSBC 4 wheel power disc brakes
• Be Cool aluminum radiator
• Flaming River stainless steel steering column with tilt and a Grant Boomerang steering wheel
• Covan Classics Dash insert with all electric gauges (Speedo, Tach, Fuel, Oil, Temp, Amps)
• Solid body mounts
• All new M&H wiring harnesses installed
• Painless Performance Extra 11 circuit fuse block
• Lots of other stuff and extra parts.
• Fiberglass hood with a 96/97 SS Camaro scoop
• About $25,000US in parts alone installed...I have all the receipts
• Approx. 6000 miles on the build
• 5 spoke 17" wheels with new Kuhmo tires installed all around about 200 miles ago

It will need minor body work to repair rust in some of the usual places (rear wheel wells, and below rear window), and a few minor dents and dings, but over all it's straight and clean, perfectly aligned and tracks perfectly straight...never been in a major accident.

I've seen 68 Camaro rollers in similar or worse shape go for $8K US and as mentioned before, I have about $25K of parts installed. So I'm looking for a fair offer with that in mind and I am reasonable in my expectations.

It runs strong and pulls like a freight train. I've never had it to the track but it has outrun a C6 Z06 Vette all the way up to about 145mph. Based on the feel compared to my 87 Grand National, I'd guess it will run in the mid to low 11's in the 1/4 mile as is...as long as it's launched well.
In the corners it handles very well. I kept pretty close to a BMW M3 on a local canyon road...he'd pull me a little in the turns and Id get it back between the turns. The M3 driver was blown away at the other end. ;-)

If you go to my youtube page meanchicken87 there are a couple brief clips with the Camaro there.
Attached are a few pix.

Still have not relisted this on the other site, but here are some additional pix of the interior and spots around the wheel driver side wheel well that would need attention.

[hungerbuhler1]

Thanks. I was on my phone and links are pain with it. Very nice car!

 

[L8TRH8R]

Any trades considered? I've got a friend looking for a first gen for his 10' RS/SS Laguna blue 21k miles fully loaded.

 

[meanchicken]

No, not interested in trades.
I'm trying to reduce the stable....too many toys alying around not being used.
The Camaro will go for cash payment, and after that I sell my 97 Grand Prix GTP.
