This LS2-powered 1968 Camaro resto-mod combines vintage charm with updated performance, comfort, and aggressive black-on-black styling.
A meticulously restored 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is hitting the spotlight, offering a sleek black-on-black resto-mod package that blends vintage muscle car looks with modern performance and amenities. Completed in 2018, this build features a potent LS2 V8 engine paired with a B&M quick-shift automatic transmission—providing both raw power and refined drivability.
Visually, the Camaro makes an aggressive first impression. The deep black paint is paired with black projector headlights and a clean, uncluttered aesthetic that emphasizes its wide stance and classic lines. It rides on Boss wheels wrapped in sticky Nitto tires—sized 235/40ZR18 up front and 275/40ZR18 in the rear—enhancing both handling and road presence.
Under the hood, the modern LS2 engine ensures reliable horsepower and torque, giving this first-gen F-body performance that rivals many newer muscle cars. Supporting hardware includes power steering and upgraded brakes, with disc brakes up front and drums in the rear for balanced stopping power.
Inside, the updates continue with Autometer Cobalt gauges providing clean, modern instrumentation, while a cold air system and comfortable interior layout make it as enjoyable to drive as it is to admire. The cockpit stays true to its muscle car roots, with an understated black interior that lets the mechanical excellence speak for itself.
With its careful restoration, well-chosen performance upgrades, and attention to detail, this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro offers the best of both worlds: vintage character and contemporary muscle. Whether it's headed to a car show or the open road, this resto-mod is ready to turn heads and deliver a serious driving experience.
