Up for your bidding pleasure, on a true no reserve auction, is a gorgeous 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle. First and foremost, I want to apologize about the pictures. The paint on this car is absolutely amazing and ultra reflective. That. combined with how cold it was and snow flurries on and off leads to some of the photos having snowflakes whirling around, some where flakes are on the car, and obviously with any excellent black paint job....tons of reflections. So as you scroll through the bottom of this listing and view the 180+ high resolution photos, keep in mind that ANY flaw you think you see is 99.9%either snow or a reflection from the concrete. The paint and body on this car is as close to flawless as you will find!
Now, on to the good stuff. Again, 1968 chevelle being offered here at no reserve. This black beauty is powered by a MONSTER 540 cubic inch merlin Big Block, and if that weren't enough for ya, its got a nice shiny blower peeking though the hood thatjust screams "don't mess with me"! Behind the blown 540 is a built TH-400 3 speed automatic trans with reverse manual valve body followed by a 12 boltposi rear end with a 3.43 gear. Every single component on this car was either rebuilt, restored, or replaced to extreme high end show quality standards. All new interior including upholstery, door panels, headliner, dash pad, carpet, etc etc... The list is never ending, and I have a 1 inch think stack of papers and receipts detailing the build. Other notable features include wildwood powerdisc brakes, drilled and slotted rotors, tubular upper and lower control arms, hotchkins sway bar, rear boxed adjustable trailing arms, dual side exhaust (sounds amazing and wickedly mean), completely detailed engine bay, spotless trunk, electric cooling fans, and soooo much more.
Thejet black paint looks outstanding and shows almost no signs of wear. It has been meticulously cared for and kept to appear soaking wet. The body is absolutely LASER straight with zero ripples, waves, orange peal,or rust. All gaps are even, straight, and as perfect as you could ever want. The chrome and bright work is highly polished, freeof any pitting, rust, scuffs, crease marks, or flaws. All glass and trim is in excellent condition as well. Guys, I can not stress this enough. This isn't your average garage restored muscle car that was built by a general hobbyist over a few years. This is a professionally built, highly detailed, nothing but the best type car meant to satisfy even the toughest to please. Nothing has gone overlooked, no corners were cut, and not a single aspect was done "just to get by". It has been driven sparingly and NEVER tracked or abused. Don't ask what it will run the 1/4 in because nobody has that answer for you. Don't ask how long it will do a burn out for, because it hasn't been tried. This car is far too nice to rag on, race, smoke the tires off, and twist in every direction.That is why there is no cage, or giant pro street rear tires...Please, if that is your intent, keep it to yourself and don't tell me about it.
This car runs and drives exceptionally well, and is truly a pleasure to be behind the wheel of. That being said, one must be very aware that this is a rocket ship and that blown 540ci monster merlin will do exactly what your foot tells it to. This is not a car for the faint of heart or those who dislike attention. I promise, everywhere you go, a crowd will form. Everybody will want to look at it, hear it, and take pictures of and with it. This car is not subtle by any means. When you pull into a show, gas station, hot dog stand, ice cream shop, your kids school, or the store parking lot...everyone willknow your there. If you demand the best, crave attention, and want something that you don't have to do a single thing to...bid on this car.
I will post 180+ UNEDITED photos, and honestly, they do this car no justice. For those of you thinking im exaggerating, come see it!!! You will not be disappointed by this one.
Serious bidders only please. Thisis a serious car, and a serious no reserve auction. All I ask is that when you place a bid, be serious as well. Have funds available, permission slips from whomever you may need them from, and make sure your doctor checks your tickerto make sure you can handle it. Dreamers and tire kickers need not waste my time, or that of all other genuinely serious bidders. Shall this auction last til the end, it will be sold to the highest bidder. Keep in mind, the highest bid wins...not the last bid. That being said, bid early and bid often. Don't miss out in the final seconds because your computer didn't load fast enough or yourlast second "sniper" bid fell just short of victory. This vehicleis being sold as is, where is, without warranty expressed or implied. I encourage any and all of you to come inspect the vehicle first hand or send a trusted mechanic to look it over for you. I have nothing to hide, the car has nothing to hide. The more people who come and see it, the more of you will end up REALLY wanting it.
Shipping assistance is available. All shipping is at the buyers expense and is to be paid by the buyer to the transport company. I highly suggest only considering enclosed transport, and recommend either reliable carriers or passport transportation. Thank you, and GOOD LUCK!!
