While it may be gone from production, the legend of the Chevelle is far from forgotten. One look at this 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Tribute, and it's easy to see why this car has amassed a massive following over the last half-century. Fully repainted in this eye-catching aqua blue, along with its complementary black hood and beltline stripes to go along with its correctly placed SS badging, this car makes an entrance anywhere it goes.
Inside, we find a clean, stock-style black vinyl interior. A center console separates a pair of bucket seats. A power-assisted three-spoke steering wheel sits in front of a three-pod gauge cluster that includes a large 120 mph speedometer and a big analog clock, surrounded by four auxiliary meters that display gas, oil pressure, engine temperature, and battery health. Sliding HVAC controls and an AM radio bring you back to a simpler time, while an additional set of Stewart Warner gauges has been neatly mounted at the base of the center stack, offering more accurate readings than the dummy dashboard lights. Finally, a staple-style shifter is perfectly placed as either an action level or handrest.
Under the hood, we find a period-correct 396 cubic-inch V-8 engine. A single four-barrel Holley carburetor feeds an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold, while spent gases are routed through a FlowMaster dual exhaust, capped with a set of chrome tips to complete this powertrain. That power is funneled through TH400 three-speed automatic transmission before being sent out to the twelve-bolt rear end.
