1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible — 350 V8, SS Trim, Ivory Interior Why This Car Is Special The 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible sits at an interesting crossroads in muscle car history. It was Chevrolet's second model year in the pony car segment, and by 1968 the factory had worked out the early kinks from the 1967 launch. The SS package — Super Sport — was a dedicated option group that added specific hood ornamentation, SS badging, a blacked-out grille with 'SS' identification, and upgraded suspension tuning. It was not a trim level in the traditional sense but rather RPO Z27, a factory performance package that buyers could stack on top of other options. In 1968, Chevrolet produced just over 235,000 first-generation Camaros total across all body styles and configurations. Of those, convertibles represented a significantly smaller share of production compared to the sport coupe, which makes any 1968 Camaro SS convertible a less common find today. The VIN on this car confirms it was built at the Norwood, Ohio assembly plant, one of two plants producing Camaros in 1968. The body style code identifies it as a convertible, and the engine code points to a V8 application — details that align precisely with what you see in front of you. This particular 1968 Camaro SS has been built as a driver-quality custom that leans into the SS identity with period-correct ornamentation while adding modern mechanical upgrades that make it genuinely usable on today's roads. It is red over ivory, a color combination that works especially well on the convertible body. The underside photos tell you something important: the floor and framerails have been coated and are solid, with no visible rot or patchwork — a meaningful detail on any 56-year-old convertible, where body flex and moisture intrusion are the first places problems appear. Features List - 350 cubic inch V8 - 700R4 four-speed overdrive automatic transmission - Front disc brakes - Dual exhaust - Power white convertible top with glass rear window - Correct 1968 SS hood ornamentation - White racing stripes - SS steering wheel - Center console with floor shifter - Front bucket seats - Chrome valve covers - Chrome performance air cleaner - 18-inch Torq-Thrust style wheels - 225/45ZR18 performance tires - 10-bolt rear end - X-frame brace - Ivory vinyl interior Mechanical The engine bay is occupied by a 350 cubic inch small-block V8, dressed with chrome valve covers and a chrome performance air cleaner. The 350 was one of the core SS engine offerings in 1968 — factory-rated at 295 horsepower in its standard two-barrel form and 295 to 350 horsepower depending on carburetor and state of tune in four-barrel configuration. This example presents with a healthy small-block that has been detailed for show without hiding its working-car character. The engine paint, chrome dress-up pieces, and yellow plug wires are period-style touches that fit the car well without looking over-built. Backing the 350 is a 700R4 four-speed overdrive automatic. This is a significant and practical upgrade over the original Turbo-Hydramatic 350 or 400 that would have been installed at the factory. The 700R4 adds a true overdrive fourth gear, which drops engine RPM considerably at highway speeds compared to the original three-speed units. For anyone planning to drive this car regularly — which is the right intention for a car like this — the 700R4 makes long-distance travel far more comfortable. The floor-mounted shifter in the center console connects cleanly to the transmission and operates through a proper gate with a dedicated indicator. Stopping power comes from front disc brakes, a meaningful safety upgrade over the factory four-wheel drum setup that came standard on most 1968 Camaros. The SS package did include front disc brakes as an available option in 1968, so this car maintains a correct look while delivering better stopping performance. The rear axle is a 10-bolt unit, which is the standard Ca
