Just took the first outdoor photographs of a '68 Camaro SS 396 Convertible that was completely restored here at our shop (Muscle Car Restorations, Inc.). We just had to share! Visit this page http://www.musclecarrestorations.com/news.html -- if your from the future, look for March 2007.

I can tell you that I am re-inspired now more then ever to paint mine. Also a 68 RS/SS Conv.
Now I want to paint it black and put 17/18 tires on it
They car is unreal. You should add some shots of the interior. Did you put the deluxe white interior back in?
Why no X brace. I don't see the need for one myself. Others do.
Tell the owner (if thats you) to bring the car to the Camaro Nats at Carlisle this summer. I must see this car in person.
