1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Super Sport Factory 396 SS - 4spd - Vintage A/C Restored

Imagine cruising down the road in a piece of American automotive history, a 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396, and reveling in the thrill of driving a car that exudes both power and elegance. This classic muscle car is a testament to timeless design and performance, meticulously restored to offer an unparalleled driving experience.

Under the hood lies a 396 Big Block engine, a powerhouse that delivers exhilarating performance. This engine, period correct but not original, has been rebuilt to factory specifications by Midland Engine Machine in North Carolina. The sound of this engine paired with the smooth engagement of the 4-speed manual transmission promises a driving experience that is as engaging as it is nostalgic.

The Chevelle's power steering and power brakes, including front disc brakes, provide modern driving ease, while the 12-bolt posi rear axle ensures that all that power is effectively transferred to the road, delivering a ride that's both thrilling and controlled. The aluminum radiator keeps the engine cool, a nod to contemporary improvements while preserving the car's classic charm.

Finished in its original factory Matador Red exterior color, this Chevelle is as striking as it is classic. The frame-off restoration, completed in 2020, has been executed with painstaking care. The frame itself is powder-coated in black gloss, ensuring a pristine, durable finish. The body, smooth and straight, gleams with a mirror-like quality, a true testament to the quality of the restoration work.

The interior of this Chevelle is equally captivating. The factory-ordered Medium Red interior complements the exterior color perfectly, providing a cohesive and visually appealing look. Every detail of the restoration has been meticulously attended to, from the period-correct AM/FM retro radio to the flawless upholstery.

This Chevelle has been driven a mere 1,246 miles since its restoration, underscoring the care and attention it has received. The vintage A/C and heat ensure comfort in all weather conditions, making this Chevelle not only a joy to drive but also a pleasure to own year-round.

Built in the Fremont, California plant between January 28th and 31st, 1968, this Chevelle is a genuine Super Sport, as denoted by the factory 138 Big Block Super Sport VIN. The meticulous restoration process, complete with receipts, highlights the commitment to preserving the car's authentic charm while updating its performance to meet contemporary standards.

Please note that while this vehicle is in spectacular condition, it does not include a spare tire. However, it is ready to enjoy right away, offering the perfect blend of classic style and modern performance. Whether you are a collector seeking a standout addition to your garage or a driving enthusiast looking for a classic car that delivers both style and substance, this 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396 stands ready to impress and thrill.
