mike3154's 1968 Chevrolet ChevelleThis is my second '68 chevelle SS, Its a 56,000 mile original car. Still has the factory ermine white paint, original matching numbers drivetrain. The engine is a 396 C.I.D. 325 horsepower, muncie M-20 4 speed transmission, and 12 bolt, 3.31:1 posi rear end. The only thing I had to do to this car is clean the engine up some! I currently have an aftermarket, open element air cleaner on the engine but still have the factory "snorkel" air cleaner that I put on for car shows. This car is rare due to its FACTORY BUICK INTERIOR!! Due to a shortage of chevelle interiors, a small number of '68 chevelle's were made with Buick seats and door panels, and the cowl tag is decoded accordingly. The car also came with 2 build sheets, original owners manual, protect-o-plate, original keys (with dealer key chain), and reciept from title from original owner. I am the 3rd owner of this chevelle. The "Champion" photo is of a sticker on the bottom side of the hood, from a tune-up in 1971. As for the other cars in the one picture, the '69 Boss 429 belongs to my neighbor, and the '67 GTO is my dad's. Both cars are unrestored originals as well!

I added a short video I took while running up the on-ramp getting on the highway. I don't think I can add it to this page, but it is in my video's if you want to see it... Thanks!

Original Buick interior. The first owner had seat covers professionally installed shortly after buying the car, which stayed in place for almost 40 years, keeping the seats very well preserved!

 Original "snorkel" air cleaner, which came on the 325 H.P. 396 engines, and an aftermarket open element air cleaner that I usually have on the car. Also a Champion sticker on the bottom side of the hood, showing a spark plug change at 33,200 miles, dated August 11, 1971

 My current Chevelle and my first Chevelle that I sold in 2004. It turns out that an old buddy of mine now owns my first Chevelle. This was from a show in the fall of 2007.
