Description

Among the rarest muscle cars of the era, this 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible represents one of only 2,286 SS 396 convertibles produced that model year. The light blue exterior showcases classic Chevelle lines with chrome bumpers that frame the front and rear, while the black vinyl convertible top with glass rear window provides open-air freedom. Rolling on 15-inch wheels wrapped in F70-15 tires, the SS 396 maintains its aggressive stance and period-correct proportions.

The teal vinyl bench seat interior creates a welcoming cabin with matching door panels and refreshed carpet. AM radio provides period entertainment while the floor shifter puts gear changes at your fingertips. Power steering makes maneuvering effortless ant the manual convertible top operation maintains the authentic driving connection of the era.

The numbers-matching 396 V8 engine, identified by casting number 3855961 with suffix code IVH, originally produced 325 horsepower in 1965 Impala applications. Paired with the desirable 4-speed Muncie manual transmission (number 3925661), this drivetrain combination delivers authentic muscle car performance. The 12-bolt rear axle handles the power, while power disc brakes up front and power drum brakes in the rear provide reliable stopping power.
