The Chevrolet Camaro was, is, and will continue to be one of the American cars out there with fans all over the world, and simply looking at the first generation shows you why.
Back in 1968, Chevrolet launched the first set of improvements for the Camaro, though it goes without saying only subtle changes here and there were included. For example, the new Camaro came with side marker lights in order to meet the government requirements that came into effect in 1968.
But other than that, very little has changed, and needless to say, the base model continued to be the most popular, followed by the RS, the SS, and the Z28. A little over 235,000 Camaros were built in 1968, with the base version accounting for more than 159,000 units.
Someone on Facebook claims they own a rare breed, as they’ve listed in the marketplace an RS/SS model that still comes with the original 396-ci (6.5-liter) V8 engine developing 350 horsepower. But as others have noticed too, the engine is disassembled, and we’re not being provided full information on where everything currently is.
On the other hand, the seller does say the Chevy isn’t running, so if you’re interested in buying it, make sure you request additional details on the engine.
A closer look at the photo gallery shows there’s a lot that needs to be fixed on this rare Camaro, both outside and inside. While it’s pretty clear the body isn’t necessarily in its best shape, the interior must be redone completely, so whoever plans a full restoration will have a lot of work to do here.
At first glance, this Camaro RS/SS is quite expensive, as the owner expects to get no more, no less than $15,000 for it. Other trades are also accepted, and if you want to check it out in person, it’s parked in Crave Creek, Arizona.
