                                                                                                             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 ).

GM seatbelt recall affects over 1m Silverados and Sierras

Fri, Apr 15 2016

The Basics: General Motors will recall 895,232 examples of the 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickups in the US. The campaign will also affect the trucks in markets worldwide, and the total number the company will recall is 1,037,982. The Problem: A steel cable connects the seatbelt to the vehicle, but over time repeated bending can cause the part to fatigue and separate. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: Dealers will enlarge the side shield opening and install a pusher bracket on the tensioner. Technicians will also replace the entire tensioner assembly if necessary. If You Own One: GM will contact owners about the recall. The company hasn't said when those notifications would begin. More Information: There are still about 3,000 new examples of these older pickups at dealerships. Until mechanics fix the problem, these vehicles are subject to a stop-sale. Similar problems have affected the General's vehicles in the past. In 2015, the company recalled over 400,000 units of the 2011-2012 Chevrolet Malibu for fatiguing cables. It also hit over a million Lambda platform crossovers in 2014. GM Recalling Certain 2014-15 Pickups to Repair Seat Belts DETROIT – GM is voluntarily recalling 895,232 model year 2014-15 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickups in the United States because the flexible steel cable that connects the seat belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate over time as a result of the driver repeatedly bending the cable when entering the seat. This issue was discovered through warranty data, and there have been no reports of crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this issue. For trucks in the field, dealers will enlarge the side shield opening, install a pusher bracket on the tensioner, and if necessary, replace the tensioner assembly. The recall in the United States includes a stop-sale of approximately 3,000 new 2014 and 2015 model year pickups still on dealer lots. Dealers will repair the vehicles prior to delivering them to customers. Customers will be notified by General Motors. They also can look up their vehicle identification number (VIN) at either https://vinrcl.safercar.gov/vin/ website or at https://my.gm.com/web/portal/ownercenter to see if their vehicle is part of the recall. GM also will voluntarily recall and repair these models in other countries where they are sold, including Canada, Mexico, and several countries in Latin America and the Middle East.

CA Chevy dealer allegedly adds $50K 'market value adjustment' to 2015 Z06

Fri, Jan 9 2015

It seems to happen with every eagerly anticipated new car – dealerships, recognizing that crushing demand far outstrips the initial limited supply of a new model, inflate the price via a so-called "market value adjustment." We've seen it in the past with a number of new models, and now it's happening again with one of the Detroit 3's hottest vehicles. A dealership in Roseville, CA, outside of Sacramento, has allegedly attached a staggering $49,995 market value adjustment to a 2015 Corvette Z06. We say allegedly because, despite the evidence uncovered by BoostAddict, John L. Sullivan Chevy's online inventory listing doesn't display the price premium of the Z06 in question, a (normally) $93,965 model with the top-end 3LZ trim. It's unclear if either of the dealer's other Z06s, both 3LZs, one of which is in transit, will receive similar price adjustments. Now, legally, Sullivan Chevy isn't doing anything wrong here. Dealerships are under no obligation to observe a manufacturer's suggested retail price, a point General Motors' spokesperson Ryndee Carney pointed out to Autoblog via email. "For the Corvette Z06, Chevrolet has established a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price we feel is right for the market. Actual transaction prices, however, are the province of the dealer," Carney said, adding that a dealer zone manager will be discussing the price hike with the dealership. While we also reached out to the dealership over both the market value adjustment and the price of the Z06 as it appears on the company's website, we've yet to hear back as of this writing. Should they reply to our inquiries, we'll be sure to update you. Until then, we'd like to hear what you think about this case. Is Sullivan Chevy simply pricing the cars as high as it thinks the market can bear, or is this a cash grab for an hotly anticipated product? Have your say in Comments.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
