Description of 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle -- |
For 1968 the Chevelle got an all-new distinctly sculpted body with tapered front fenders and a rounded beltline. The car adopted a long-hood/short-deck profile with a high rear-quarter "kick-up" and hardtop coupes featured a semi-fastback flowing roofline. The '68's also rode a new sportier 112-inch wheelbase and tire tread width grew an inch front and rear. Top-trim models (including the SS 396 and new luxury Concours) featured GM's new Hide-A-Way wiper system and the Super Sport became a seri...es on its own. Additionally manual transmission cars got GM's "Air Injection Reactor" (A.I.R.) smog pump. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this '68 Chevelle SS 396. The car originally sold new in Cleveland Ohio. It is a 138 code true SS 396 Chevelle. It was painted in 2013 in Matador Red with black racing stripes and shows very well. The Chevelle has a factory 4 speed Muncie M21 "Rock Crusher" on the floor with a Hurst shifter with a 12 bolt/308 posi traction rear end. The 396 is period correct and was rebuilt in 1979 and has 2200 hours on it since rebuild. The transmission was rebuilt and given a new heavy duty clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing and the flywheel was re-surfaced in 2016 and has under 100 miles on it.
