1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 Convertible Tribute, Big Block Powered, Fully Upgraded Open-Air Muscle

If you’ve been searching for a classic Chevelle Convertible that combines iconic muscle car styling with upgraded performance, comfort, and drivability, this beautifully built 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible Tribute is one you’ll want to see. Finished in timeless Ermine White with aggressive black SS striping and protected by a ceramic coating, this Chevelle has the unmistakable presence that turns heads everywhere it goes.

Under the hood sits a strong 454 cubic inch big block V8 equipped with a mild performance cam, roller rockers, Holley 770 Street Avenger carburetor, Accel HEI distributor, CVF Racing serpentine belt system, a 4-row radiator, and dual variable-speed cooling fans. This Chevelle delivers the kind of power, sound, and performance that muscle car enthusiasts love while offering upgraded reliability for enjoyable cruising.

Backing the big block is a 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission featuring a new horseshoe shifter and 4th gear lockup switch, making this car far more enjoyable for highway cruising than traditional older drivetrains. A 12-bolt Posi traction rear end helps put the power to the pavement.

This Chevelle has also received major suspension and braking upgrades to improve handling and confidence on the road. Willwood front disc brakes, new rear brakes, and a completely upgraded suspension system with new control arms, springs, and shocks help this convertible drive significantly better than many classics of its era.

Inside, the cabin has been completely restored and tastefully upgraded while keeping the classic muscle car feel intact. The interior features a brand-new dash, Dakota Digital instrumentation, Retro Auto sound stereo with Bluetooth, and a Classic Auto Air Air conditioning system for modern comfort on warm cruising days.

The electrical system has been extensively modernized with a complete American Auto wire harness rewire along with LED headlights and LED taillights for improved safety and dependability. Additional updates include a new fuel tank and fuel lines.

The new premium Stay fast canvas power convertible top with glass rear window adds both quality and convenience, making top-down cruising effortless.

This Chevelle sits exactly the way a muscle car should, riding on new Cragar SS wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires for that unmistakable period-correct performance look.
