1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible — Numbers-Correct 327 V8, Norwood-Built, Fisher Body Documented Why This Car Is Special The 1968 Chevrolet Camaro convertible is one of the more sought-after configurations of the first-generation platform, and for good reason. Chevrolet sold just over 20,000 Camaro convertibles for the 1968 model year, compared to more than 215,000 coupes. That alone makes any open-top first-gen Camaro a relatively scarce find. What separates this particular car from the typical survivor is the paperwork behind it — specifically, the Fisher Body tag still mounted in the car, which confirms the factory paint color, interior trim code, body style, assembly plant, and build date without any guesswork. The Fisher Body plate on this car decodes as follows: body style ST 68-12467, which confirms this is a 1968 Camaro convertible. The interior trim code TR 712 matches black standard vinyl, exactly what you see inside the car. The paint code R1 confirms Ermine White, which is the correct name for this off-white factory color. The assembly plant code NOR identifies this as a Norwood, Ohio build — one of two plants that produced first-generation Camaros, the other being Van Nuys, California. The build date code 05E places production in the fifth week of May 1968, meaning this car was assembled very late in the 1968 model year run. For collectors, that level of documentation is not always available on 56-year-old cars. The engine is numbers-correct — the 327 cubic inch V8 that belongs in this car is still under the hood. That matters both for valuation and for authenticity. The 327 was a well-regarded small-block in 1968, offered in the Camaro in multiple states of tune. This car carries a 327 Turbo-Fire decal on the air cleaner lid, consistent with the era. The combination of a documented body tag, matching engine, convertible body style, and a desirable Ermine White over black color scheme puts this 1968 Camaro convertible in a different category...
