Wow, this one is over restored! They weren't this glossy when new. This is a show car only driven on and off the trailer. Top award winner at Chevelle Nationals and Chevy Vettefest. Same owner 39 years, 1980-2019. I tracked down the restorer and we talked a few times. He took this car down to bare. He said every component came apart as far as it could. I certainly was even more impressed after talking with him. This is a genuine SS, verified in the vin in 1968.
EXTERIOR: Factory Matador red car, code R. It ss better than it left the factory. The body is absolutely pristine. All the gaps are precise, the body is laser beam straight. I could not find an issue, there are no problem areas. The paint is polished like glass. The jambs are slick. The doors and trunk shut like new. It has the optional white stripe. Almost all of the exterior trim is New Old Stock. Everything from the grill to the taillights look new. The glass is all crystal clear and aligned properly. The vinyl top is excellent. It has correct antenna and T-3 headlights. All weather strips and window seals have been replaced. The Wide Oval red line tires still have nubs on the tread. The wheels are restored and have mint poverty caps.
INTERIOR: From carpet to headliner it is immaculate. You can even look up behind the dash and it looks like new. The wiring harness was replaced. Down on the floor it has new carpet and completely restored GM seat belts. The center console is all new and has the correct Muncie shifter sticking out of it. The seats have been recushioned and upholstered. The plastic trim is new. The dash sparkles- all the chrome bezels, heater controls, vents and knobs are restored or new. It has a factory "roll" tachometer and a factory gauge cluster. Upgraded quartz movement in in the clock. AM-FM stereo with a very rare multiplex system. Even more rare it actually works. Mint deluxe steering wheel. The door panels, armrest, window cranks have all been replaced. The headliner is tight as a drum. All the interior lights work.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Wow, it looks like it has never been started. Again, over restored. Everything is glossy. The correct 396 with optional 350 hp motor was completely rebuilt. Stock components including valve covers, manifold, air cleaner etc. It features air conditioning, power steering and brakes. Every component is restored like new!
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Pristine metal. The spatter paint was sprayed from a gun and looks like the factory did it. The jams and trunk lid are slick. New wiring, weatherstrip, seat insulation, decals, mat and latch. 5th matching redline on restored rim. Restored jack assembly too.
UNDERSIDE: OMG, look at the pictures. It is just as polished and glossy underneath as it is on top. The immaculate metal floors are high gloss red paint. The chassis is high gloss black. Every piece looks new from the cotter pins to the frame. The body was removed from the frame and the chassis was completely disassembled. Every single steering and suspension component was replaced or rebuilt. The factory type exhaust system was completely replaced. The fuel system is new including the tank, straps, sending unit and stainless lines. The drum brake system was completely rebuilt. New stainless lines, all new e-brake assembly. Looking up the motor it is immaculate, the starter is restored. The Muncie 4-speed is restored. The linkage, clutch and all related parts were replaced. The u-joints were replaced, driveshaft was restored. The original 12 bolt rear has 3.07 posi gears.
This is literally one of the best restored Chevelles I've ever seen. It looks and feels like a new 1968 Chevelle!

Burnt tail light. Lol.
Great car!
Absolutely the best 68 I have ever seen! Its obvious that nothing was spared in building this car. I seriously believe this is a better car than when it was brand-new ... Superior job by whoever did it, right down to the poverty wheels and caps. To me, this just gives it 'that special look'.,Great car, great presentation .... great everything!!! Thnx for sharing.
Yep, a drop gorgeous beauty! My buddy Butch in Howards Grove Wi has a multiple best of show winning '68 SS 396, all original fully restored triple black. It's not driven anymore, just trailered.
Nice, that was the year I graduated from high school
Absolutely beautiful lady. Someone will have a gorgeous automobile. Love it!!!
Stunning 68. The finest one I've ever seen ❤ It's gonna sell fast guys. You better jump on it if you're interested.
Thanks David! 😎👍
The driver side brake light is burned out.
How does he do it, one of the most honest restoration of the most iconic muscle car in history. Jay's dedication to finding the best of the best always raising the bar for everyone else!!!
I wouldn't call it an honest restoration, like Jay said it is over-restored. Nicer than the day it left the factory.
One word…WOW ❤️
😍
I'm speechless.... WOW!
the car needs to be driven and enjoyed as intended.
trailer queens are a total waste.
when all is said and done, it's only a car.
Beautiful car .
Holy Moses it is a awsome chevy unbeateable from the batcave 🦇 🦇 USA 🤩
Almost *$100K and one of the brake lights doesn't work.*
It is a nice car, but it doesn't look like it is worth $100K or even half that!
@@jimmyjoejeeter2366 So true!
The light was noted for the shop after the video.
@@VoloMuseumAutoSales LOL
@@VoloMuseumAutoSales Beautiful car. I know most collectors prefer the 1970 SS Chevelle but the 1968 when they changed the body looks cleaner to me. For those complaining about the price, they would never be able to build one this nice for what you have it priced at.
Only way u could make that car better is change the tires and wheels to torque thrust d's with BFG Radial TA 's IMHO
some period correct torque thrusts would look nice on it.
Nice!!!!!!!!
Thanks!!
The left rear brake lamp is out.
What model is the Muncie 4-speed ?
Time machine A brand new Chevelle
I don’t think that is a real SS, Chevelle? Nevertheless, looks like a fine job done on resoration!
The VIN says it is.
Maybe the vin “says” it is, however, it doesn’t have OEM equipment! As far as I know 68 SS Chevelle’s didn’t come with hub caps? Maybe I am wrong, I am not sure. I owned a new 1969 Chevelle and part of the SS package was the super sport wheels, not hubcaps. Same in 1968, I believe.
How much does it cost….
You can get the price on our website. Here is a link directly to the vehicle.

Nice car but poverty hubcaps?
That’s probably how the car was born, Obviously the restorer was a purist.
I wish the guy would do a 69 Camaro I’d be on it for that price range.
@@robertdean6222 Love the ‘69 Camaro!
@@ThePrissy11 But does it have A/C? 😆
@@VoloMuseumAutoSales Yes!!!😊👍
@@robertdean6222 a purist wouldn't have painted the underside of the hood gloss black. Don't get me wrong, it is a beautiful car!
