Some of the most thrilling races of all time were the later 1960s Trans-Am bouts with some of the hottest small blocks around. That's what this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is all about. It has the unmistakable look of an SCCA contender, and it has an ultra-hot DZ 302ci V8 under the hood for authenticity.
The blue and gold livery instantly reminds you of the Mark Donohue Camaro of the same era. This is not a Penske Sunoco clone, and instead, it just sets the right tone to get your nostalgia revving. In fact, what we like about this coupe is that it has the right authentic feel with hand-painted sponsor logos that have been cleared over to protect them. Deleted trim, deleted bumpers, and all other lighter weight tricks apply to this classic racer. And those rear fenders are flared wide to make sure you can fit those big tires within. The deleted headlights, an external battery shutoff switch, metal window retaining tabs, and racing slicks all tell you this one is ready to live out your vintage track day fantasies today.
The interior is pure competition. It's stripped of nearly all its excess weight and replaced with bright white bareness. The upgrades are track-worthy with a full cage, ignition switch box, fire extinguisher, and a Simpson five-point racing harness. There are a few concessions. It's nice to have real door panels instead of flat sheetmetal, and there is a passenger seat (although with no seatbelt, it's only for the bravest friends.) The Hurst Indy shifter calls out for your right hand, and the very important tach is mounted high on the roof like a vintage head-up display.
The engine is what makes this racer so special, and so it's put on a proper tidy display. This is a real-deal 1969 DZ-code Chevrolet 302 cubic-inch V8.
