This 1968 Camaro started as a beautifully restored classic in Tripoli Turquoise. It was transformed into a modern Pro Touring machine with a Roadster Shop SPEC chassis, featuring Fox RS SV coilovers, rack-and-pinion steering, and a parallel four-bar rear suspension. The engine bay was upgraded for a Chevrolet LS3 paired with a 4L65E transmission and a Strange 9-inch rear with 3.90 gears.
Upgrades include Baer four-wheel disc brakes, a custom Hooker/Borla exhaust, and Billet Specialties wheels with Diamondback tires. Inside, the interior retains its original houndstooth and vinyl with added Dakota Digital RTX gauges, while the exterior preserves its classic Tripoli Turquoise finish. The result is a Camaro that blends vintage style with modern performance, ready for long drives and spirited motoring.
