1968 Chevelle SS 396/ 350HP L-34 , Show Car!

Ready to Show or cruise, is my rare 1968 Chevelle SS 396/ 350HP L-34 , with factory Muncie 4 speed manual transmission,

along with rare original gauge package containing the 5,500 redline in-dash tachometer.

Over the years, I've owned several different types of classic muscle cars, and this particular 1968 Chevelle SS is by far my favorite! If you are looking for an amazing, beautiful, attention getting classic muscle car with plenty of overall performance, handling, comfort, and history... then this is the car for you!

Unlike a lot of older classic vehicles (missing documentation), my 1968 Chevelle SS comes with its rare original Dealer packet that contains the original Owner Protection Plan and New Vehicle Warranty( Protect-o-plate contained inside), original owner's manual, service records, and the original owner's various maintenance receipts collected over the years ( can be seen in auction pics).

The Protect-o-plate contains vital information (such as vehicle VIN; type of engine; transmission; rear end; exterior paint color; and other factory installed options ). The Protect-o-plate

along with the cowl data tag, and VIN on dash of my chevelle all coincide and validate the authenticity of my 138 REAL DEAL 1968 Chevelle SS 396/350HP L-34 , Muncie 4 speed car.

This Chevelle is also an original bucket seat , factory 4 speed, center console car .

HISTORY:

On November 21, 1967

this 1968 Chevelle SS was purchased brand new at Morris Chevrolet in New Castle, Indiana

and has had only 3 owners to date (me being the third owner).

A stack of original owner’s maintenance receipts comes with the sale of my Chevelle along with the

original Dealer packet that contains the original Owner Protection Plan and New Vehicle Warranty( Protect-o-plate contained inside), original owner's manual, service records.

Approximately 2 years ago,

my Chevelle was completely disassembled and then fully restored .

(Prior to restoration, my Chevelle was solid from top to bottom. Solid frame and all original solid body panels. Even more impressive, is that the roof had no rust issues usually caused by vinyl tops trapping moisture ).

A meticulous show quality paint job was applied ( performed by a very reputable local Custom body/paint shop) keeping with its correct factory original exterior color ( cowl tag code: P2) Seafrost green with black vinyl top .

The entire interior was restored to immaculate condition (keeping its factory original black vinyl interior),

All factory gauges work properly including the in-dash tachometer.

Headlights (high and low beams), tail lights, turn signals,brake lights, side marker lights, reverse backup lights, instrument/gauges lights, glove box light, center console light all WORK properly!

Heater/blower motor/climate controls work GREAT!

It’s 396 powerplant rated at 350 Horsepower runs perfectly as well as its

Muncie M-21 4 speed manual, close ratio transmission shifts smooth and accurate through all gears (even the correct GL 4 manual transmission gear lube was used when changing fluid).

12 bolt positraction rear end with the 3.55 gear ratio (all internal gears and components in excellent condition).

This Chevelle runs GREAT! Starts right up even in cold temperatures. Does not leak, smoke, or burn oil . Engine runs super cool (average running engine temperature stays around 180 degrees F )

Also, my Chevelle has factory power steering ( original power steering pump with separate original reservoir mounted to the driver side fender), along with factory power brakes.

Just to re emphasize ….This Chevelle starts, runs, shifts, stops and drives EXCELLENT!!!!

Another rare feature with my Chevelle is it's interior code 766 (as shown on cowl tag/see pic). I have yet to find another 68 Chevelle SS produced out of the Atlanta plant with a 766 interior code.

Furthermore, the trunk is nicely detailed with correct mat, spare tire, and bumper jack assembly.

I have a Clean and Clear Indiana title.

If you have any questions, then I strongly encourage you to ask questions. I will do my best to answer all questions in an expedient manner .

Also, I am more than happy to let you come to my residence and inspect my Chevelle in person (if you are a serious bidder/buyer looking to purchase a superb classic muscle car ).

Please…serious bidders only. Absolutely NO bidders with 0 feedback ( I will cancel your bid).

Impala SS vs. Marauder: Recalling Detroit’s muscle sedans

Thu, Apr 30 2020

Impala SS vs. Marauder — it was comparo that only really happened in theory. ChevyÂ’s muscle sedan ran from 1994-96, while MercuryÂ’s answer arrived in 2003 and only lasted until 2004. TheyÂ’re linked inextricably, as there were few options for powerful American sedans during that milquetoast period for enthusiasts. The debate was reignited recently among Autoblog editors when a pristine 1996 Chevy Impala SS with just 2,173 miles on the odometer hit the market on Bring a Trailer. Most of the staff favored the Impala for its sinister looks and said that it lived up to its billing as a legit muscle car. Nearly two-thirds of you agree. We ran an unscientific Twitter poll that generated 851 votes, 63.9 percent of which backed the Impala. Muscle sedans, take your pick: Â— Greg Migliore (@GregMigliore) April 14, 2020 Then and now enthusiasts felt the Impala was a more complete execution with guts. The Marauder, despite coming along later, felt more hacked together, according to prevailing sentiments. Why? On purpose and on paper theyÂ’re similar. The ImpalaÂ’s 5.7-liter LT1 V8 making 260 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque was impressive for a two-ton sedan in the mid-Â’90s. The Marauder was actually more powerful Â— its 4.6-liter V8 was rated at 302 hp and 318 lb-ft. The ImpalaÂ’s engine was also used in the C4 Corvette. The MarauderÂ’s mill was shared with the Mustang Mach 1. You can see why they resonated so deeply with Boomers longing for a bygone era and also captured the attention of coming-of-age Gen Xers. Car and DriverÂ’s staff gave the Marauder a lukewarm review back in Â‘03, citing its solid handling and features, yet knocking the sedan for being slow off the line. In a Hemmings article appropriately called Â“AutopsyÂ” from 2004, the ImpalaÂ’s stronger low-end torque and smooth shifting transmission earned praise, separating it from the more sluggish Mercury. All of this was captured in the carsÂ’ acceleration times, highlighting metrically the differences in their character. The Impala hit 60 miles per hour in 6.5 seconds, while the Marauder was a half-second slower, according to C/D testing. Other sites have them closer together, which reinforces the premise it really was the little things that separated these muscle cars. Both made the most of their genetics, riding on ancient platforms (FordÂ’s Panther and General MotorsÂ’ B-body) that preceded these cars by decades. Both had iconic names.

These are the 'Greenest' and 'Meanest' cars in 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

As has become tradition, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has come up with a ranking of what it refers to as the "greenest" cars of 2015, and, by way of contrast, a list of the so-called "meanest" cars, so those who value eco-friendliness over all else can choose which vehicles they should or should not consider buying. As you may expect, electric cars make up the majority of the greenest cars on the list, but, perhaps surprisingly to many, the Tesla Model S didn't make the cut. It's worth noting, too, that where the electricity an owner uses to charge their electric vehicle has a big impact on its overall environmental impact. "A car that is charged using electricity generated from natural gas or renewables is going to have significantly less impact on the environment than one charged on a coal-heavy grid," says ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan. The ACEEE's list for 2015 looks very different than it did in 2014. It's an interesting collection, though – and we're sure this goes without saying, really Â– we'd recommend doing a bit more research into each vehicle and how it might fit into your daily life before making any purchase decisions.

GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem

Wed, Mar 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.
