Few muscle cars represent the golden era of American performance quite like the 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396. As the first year of the redesigned second-generation Chevelle, the ’68 model introduced a sleeker body style that remains one of the most recognizable silhouettes in the muscle car world. This example carries the coveted 138 VIN, confirming its status as a true Super Sport.

This Chevelle has recently undergone a restoration completed between 2024 and 2025, bringing the car back with fresh presentation and thoughtful mechanical updates. Power comes from a replacement 396 cubic-inch V8, equipped with a Quick Fuel carburetor and aluminum intake manifold, delivering strong big-block performance. The engine is paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, providing a classic muscle car driving experience with smooth, effortless cruising.

The exterior is finished in blue accented by silver SS stripes, a timeless color combination that highlights the Chevelle’s muscular body lines. Modern performance and drivability upgrades include QA1 front coilovers, power steering, and front disc brakes, while Flowmaster mufflers provide the unmistakable sound expected from a big-block Chevrolet. The car rides on 17-inch Ridler wheels, blending classic styling with improved road presence.

Inside, the cabin maintains its classic muscle car character with black vinyl bench seating, complemented by a retro-look stereo with upgraded speakers for modern listening convenience. Comfort is enhanced by the addition of a Vintage Air air-conditioning system, making the car far more enjoyable during warm-weather cruising.

Recent maintenance work includes shortening the driveshaft, adjusting the brakes, and replacing the outer tie-rod ends, helping ensure the car is ready for its next owner. The sale also includes owner’s manuals and service records, adding useful documentation to the vehicle’s history.

TITLE & OWNERSHIP

A clear title will be transferred to the buyer. The vehicle currently has a lien that will be paid off by the seller at closing, after which the lender will release the title for transfer.

Known Items / Notes

• The roller tachometer is currently inoperative. This appears to be a simple issue, likely a disconnected wire at the coil.

• The passenger window operates normally, raising and lowering properly, though it could benefit from a minor adjustment for optimal alignment.

A true 138-VIN SS Chevelle with a recent restoration, tasteful upgrades, and classic big-block power is always a desirable addition to any muscle car collection. This example offers the iconic look, sound, and performance that made the Chevelle SS one of the most celebrated muscle cars of the late 1960s.
