The shifter is a Hurst which is not stock. It cost a fortune to restore one of these cars. I know first hand what it costs, $100,000.00 will not get His money back that He invested. He needs to get a reasonable offer to consider. NICK L72

I agree with TRQ on the details. I also noted the tail light lenses to be incorrect. Otherwise it looks perfect.

Looks like a fresh restoration. Not sure about the buy it now price, that's a lot of $$.
I am confused about the interior. Apparently, not Z03 with the bench seat but is does have SS door panels?

I hate to pick anyone's restoration apart,and I'm not a world renown expert by any means,but how could you go to all this work,ask unreal money,and not put the correct shifter boot / bezel in the car? Love the car,I had near the exact same car in 1975,bought off the back lot of the Chevy dealership I worked at,had a bad miss and lots of bad front end parts,,I think I gave $450 for it.

Tim, the boot and bezel look OK to me, what am I missing? Also, the fact that it does NOT have the Z03 option, there are known examples that do not have the SS 3-ring tail lamps, so this is correct. The door panels are also wrong. This car should have the standard Impala door panels
with mylar strips and buttons on them.

Yep,,I think your right. I just viewed it on a real computer,instead of my I phone,and what I thought was a shiny,flat generic Hurst bezel and boot is in fact right I think. Looks a little bound up and goofy, maybe the boot is off 180 degrees,,cant tell for sure. There is an offset in the boot,,short end goes to the driver side as I remember.
Come on Donny,,tell us what it's worth. After seeing your original car,I would think you could have the most valuable 68 car around.
