1968 Chevrolet Chevelle ss396 true ss car 138 vin code fully restored like new condition
Description: I have up for auction a fully restored 1968 Chevelle SS, from the ground up no expense was spared, frame off restoration was done by a professional restoration shop here on Long Island, engine, transmission, differential, interior and all most everything else was done by myself. The process took over 3 years to complete and was finished in December of 2012. The car has won best in show at 2 different car shows and people’s choice in another 2 shows. I will list all the features below, just to let you know this is not a 10 or 20 thousand restoration the price tag on this was up near $85,000.00 and I did a lot of the work myself, here’s what I’ve got in her:
Engine: 454 LS6 bored .030 461CI, 557HP@5900RPM, 525FTLBS@4500RPM, dyno tested, Balanced and Blueprinted by B&B Machine, Comp cams 595 lift 250* duration, solid lifter, Comp roller rockers and pushrods, Melling oil pump, Edelbrock RPM intake, Holley HP1000, Hooker Stainless Steel Headers 2"/3.5" collectors, Pypes Stainless Steel Exhaust 2.5" out the back sounds great, LS6 forged pistons 11.0 compression, LS6 dimpled steel rods, LS6 forged steel crank, 4 bolt LS6 block and heads rectangular ports, Power adder NOS 150 shot, totally remotely controlled from center console, tank is mounted in trunk (over 700HP). Transmission: M-22 modified custom gear ratio from Auto Gear Inc. I have the matching numbers case it goes with the car but installed is a M-22 Super Case with a 2.56 first, 1.91 second, 1.48 third and a 1.00 fourth gear, trany was built to handle the 700HP. Differential, 12 bolt GM Eaton posi rear 3.73 ratio also fully rebuilt new posi clutch kit and bearings/seals. General:
Period correct looking AM/FM MP3 stereo, buckets, console, original Hurst Competition plus shifter, full Autometer gages. The entire interior is new, seat covers, door panels, carpets, fully Dynomatted floor, pictures speak for themselves way too much to list all new brakes and suspension, Bilstein shocks, boxed rear arms all urethane bushings, rear sway bar, stainless steel fuel tank and straps, the list goes on and on everything was either rebuilt or replaced even the blower motor everything works, it’s like a new car. The differential and transmission are numbers matching the engine is not although as I mentioned prior the transmission case is not in the car at this time but it will be sold with it, the LS6 engine in the car is an icon only produced in 1970 and was rated at 450HP from the factory, that’s why I kept it I could of sold it for a ton of money and purchased a numbers matching 396 but I wanted the icon and an extra 200HP. Body is strait as they come looks like glass. I did change up the wheels you will notice in some of the pics grey SS rims and in the later pics I had them chromed for a better look also a head rest kit was installed after completion, headrests were $111.00 option in 1968... The steering box is a quick ratio unit so when driving steering and handling feel more like a late model vehicle but the original numbers matching box will be sold with the car. This car was also featured in the August 2014 issue of Car Craft Magazine. There are so many things done to this car its hard to list all, any questions feel free to email us.
Payment: PayPal, $500.00 down payment due at auction close, Please ONLY BID if you intend to pay. Questions welcome e-mail us and I will get back to you ASAP. On Sep-22-14 at 17:40:30 PDT, seller added the following information:

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia
Fri, Jan 16 2015These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.
