1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 – The Real Deal

Are you looking for a collector vehicle that will garner attention and admiration from all who see it? Are you a Camaro enthusiast searching for your Holy Grail car? Stop searching – we found it for you, and it’s right here in our showroom at Blue Marlin Motors USA!

This is an original, documented, one owner 1968 Camaro Z/28. How do we know it’s one owner, you ask? The original Protect-o-Plate warranty card and book are still with this car.

The VIN of this rare Camaro is 124378N409412.

The block casting number is 3914678, which authenticates the engine block as one belonging to a 302 cubic inch 290 horsepower V8 intended for a 1968 Camaro Z/28. The engine deck, as you can see in the photos, is stamped with a partial VIN stamp that reads 18N409412, verifying that this DZ 302 engine belongs in this particular 1968 Camaro Z/28.

The Muncie M21 4-speed manual transmission mated to the engine is also original to the car. Its assembly date is P8C21, it sports a “660” case, and again the partial VIN of 18N409142 is stamped into the case as well. The 12-bolt posi-traction rear end has original 4.10 gears and an assembly date code of BV0321G, a casting date of B298, and a housing number of 860NF. It, too, is original to the car.

What really sets this car apart from the pack, aside from the fact that it’s only got 22,220 original miles, is its paint. The paint code was a special order, as evidenced by the “1001HA” code on the window sticker, as well as the “- -“designation for paint on the car’s original trim tag. This special order car was ordered and painted in a special hue called “Tangerine orange.” In addition to that, it is a real factory stripe delete car, and the paint on this car is original.

This car has been certified by Jerry MacNeish of Camaro Hi-Performance, INC – known worldwide as the authority on the 1967-1969 Camaro Z/28. It is a true survivor Camaro. The only changes from the day this car left the factory during the first week of April 1968 are minor. There is a Hurst shifter in between the bucket seats, and the smog pump, long known as a failure item and a concern on these cars, was removed sometime early in its life. Everything else is date-code correct for the car, making this quite possibly the most original Z/28 Camaro you will ever see.

A complete list of the codes will be below this description for your review.

If you want to add this piece of history to your collection, come see it in person here in our showroom. Blue Marlin Motors is close to Palm Beach International airport, and we’ll be happy to help you make arrangements to see the car from anywhere in the world.
