1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible

LMC is proud to offer this SS396 Chevelle Convertible for sale

The 1968 Chevelle got an all-new distinctly sculpted body with tapered front fenders and a rounded beltline. The car adopted a long-hood/short-deck profile with a high rear-quarter "kick-up". While all 1967 Chevelle models rode a 115-inch wheelbase, the 1968 coupes and convertibles now rode a sporty 112-inch wheelbase. Tread width grew an inch front and rear. Hardtop coupes featured a semi-fastback, flowing roofline. Top-trim models (including the SS 396) featured GM's new Hide-A-Way wiper system. The Super Sport (SS396 sport coupe, convertible, and El Camino pickup) became series on its own. Black-accented Super Sports rode F70x14 red-stripe tires and carried a standard 325-horsepower 396-cubic-inch Turbo-Jet V8 engine below the special twin-domed hood. Chevrolet's Chevelle is one of the tried-and-true workhorses of the muscle car/collectible car world. Originally introduced in 1964, a new body style debuted for the 1968 model year and became so popular that it endured with updates for five years. Chevelles are among the most popular GM A-bodies ever produced, which makes them a good choice if you're looking for a collector car.
