I'm looking to trade my '68 Camaro for a nice C6. This is a beautiful, professionally built, meticulously maintained car. I've owned it since '06 when I bought it from an owner who did a frame-on resto. It was basically stock and a two-time Super Chevy Show Editor’s Choice award winner. Since then it has been out only on sunny days, never seen rain, and always stored in a climate controlled garage. I've attempted to evolve the car tastefully as a true super street car, retaining as much factory appeal as possible. I built this car to drive and dip into the 7's in the quarter (bottom 8s on a soft tune). It has a brand new combo, an air-to-water F2 Procharged small block Chevy, TH400, Fab 9 rear, and much more. It has only about 10 street miles on it, no dyno time, and no track time. Several friends have a similar combo and it should put out around 1200 RWHP and capable of cruising on pump gas and consistently running bottom 8's on C16. It was just finished and I just travel too much to enjoy a car like this. Paint is 9.5 of 10, interior is 9.5 of 10, and mechanically it is brand new. Chevy High Performance did a photo shoot in July so it will be featured in CHP mag soon.

The asking trade value is $45K. As a trade, I'm open to most any C6 of similar value, stock or modded, manual or auto, black or silver preferred.

Had a 67 but love the 68's...Keep that car the vettes are nice but classic's are on a different level.

BADMOON

F**K A VETTE.. Put A/C in that thing and keep it! HE lost his mind.....

.gearhead.

I had two offers at the asking price on Thursday. I planned to accept one and go get a silver 2013 ZR1 locally. But that night I took the car to the track for the first time to dial it in. After doing that, I'm starting to agree with you two guys. Not much can compare to this.

What did she run at the strip? Very curious!!!

.gearhead.

First time out so didn't make a clean pass. Pulled 20 degrees of timing out on launch, launched soft at 3500 rpm, 2/3 throttle through 1st, and went 1.25 60 ft coasting through the 1/8 at 5.82. Going back in a week or so to try to get a full pass in. The goal is drive to the track and go 5.30's or better. Then I'll turn it up...
