1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

I know nothing about this car. I am looking at the L78 and Z28 these guys have. Enjoy this one.

That L78 car looks nice but what is up with the passenger door panel? You can see all of the rivets through the upholstery.

Re: 1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

Yeah, that door panel needs fixin, is that Charley's 64 Impala for sale there also?

Re: 1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

cool car. If paperwork shows dealer conversion when new. That dealer recieved one of the first 25 1967 z28's also. I did not know they were a hi-po dealer. Roger

The "L-88" appears to have iron heads...

Here is the same car at our All Camaro show in 2002, with a few of Supercars Kevin's cars in the background!

Same owner for a lot of years..a regular drag racer. I wouldn't count on those being iron heads...

Absolutely, with that combination, the center would not have been cut out.

PS Did you buy the L78 or Z/28?

Re: 1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

I don't think I have ever seen Tach and guages with no clock.

Re: 1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

The L88 car in Wa was a day two conversion where the owner brought the car back and had the work done. They installed the L88 shortblock and reused the L78 Heads. The car and its History are well known but there is no documentation. The owner used to have some kind of papers including the orig owners contact info but it got stolen out of the car while on display at a car show. That is what was relayed to me by My Friend that owns MusclecarsNW.

Whats up with those lumpy door panels on that orange 69 SS in the above link??? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] I like that spare wheel sans tire in the trunk too...

Re: 1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

I am going to drive over to the Seattle area in the next couple of days to look at some 69 SS 396 Camaro's. If I have time, I will look at the hugger orange SS 396 with the interesting door panel and find out what is up with that.
But in no way will I purchase this car until Dan looks at it first or buys it, since he is the one that mentioned it in the first place. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: 1968 Camaro SS L-88.
 

Mr. T.... thanks alot buddy! I would actually like you to look at the Z/28 for me. Anything and everything would nice. I have not even seen the car, just talk to Bob from the dealer. They seem to have some nice stuff. I am going to buy a Z before a L-78.

-Dan

Pictures would be nice too.

Charley,
You are exactly right. I did not know about the iron heads until I talked to the current owner last night.

It's a shame that someone would steal documentation like that, especially when the thief would find no value in it, while really hurting the owner. He told me he had every title back to the original owner, along with docs from Alan Green. He is still in touch with owners number one and three.

Just goes to show that valuable paperwork should be photocopied and left at home in a safe place. In a public show is no place for it to be. Seems kinda foolish to me.
