                                                                                                             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).

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

GM Recalls 218,000 Chevy Aveo Models Over Fire-Prone Lighting

Wed, May 21 2014

The recall train keeps on rolling for General Motors. Hot on the heels of its recent 2.4 million-vehicle recall of various models, it's now calling in 218,000 Chevrolet Aveo units from the 2004-2008 model years because they could catch fire. The problem concerns the daytime running light module in the instrument panel. It could overheat, melt and cause a fire. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, "We are aware of some fires," and the company "is still investigating." Adler wouldn't comment about how many fires were reported or when the automaker was first aware of this issue because of the ongoing analysis. However, he said the issue has not caused any injuries or fatalities. GM also doesn't have a fix for the problem with the DRL module yet. The company says in its recall statement to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the remedy "is still under development." Adler wasn't sure when it would be ready, but he said Aveo owners would receive notification in the mail "relatively soon." They will receive a second letter later to schedule the repair. In a separate letter about the Aveo's problem to NHTSA (viewable here as a PDF), GM said its Executive Field Action Decision Committee decided to conduct the recall on May 16. Scroll down for the recall report. RECALL Subject : Daytime Running Light Module Overheating Report Receipt Date: MAY 19, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V261000 Component(s): Potential Number of Units Affected: 218,000 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Chevrolet Aveo vehicles equipped with daytime running lights (DRL). In the affected vehicles, there may be heat generated within the DRL module located in the center console in the instrument panel, which could melt the DRL module. CONSEQUENCE: If the DRL module melts due to the heat generation, it could cause a vehicle fire. REMEDY: The remedy for this recall campaign is still under development. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). General Motors recall number for this campaign is 14236. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
