Does anyone know where I can get an original RS package for a 68? and for how much?
thx in advance.

I think they came from the factory in 1968, but you might be able to get all of the parts to make a '68 Camaro look like an RS at Year One.

but is there any way to get the parts now and from where. also what did the Z/28 have back then.
or better yet any way to find an original Z/28?

There are ways to find anything if you have the money. For what it sounds like what you are looking for, your best bet would be to find reproduction parts to make it look like a clone of the original.

Year One
D & R Classic Parts
Classic Industries

I just did a google search and found the places above. There are many places to find parts, even Ebay. I wish you luck with what you want to do, I have always wanted to restore a '68 SS Camaro.

^Those are good companies, also check out Rick's first gen http://www.firstgen.com/
I know there are companies that an RS kit for the headlights. Then you can buy all the chrome and SS trim, emblems, as well as the taillights. You are going to need a body shop to do the reverse lights, though.

finding all the parts to make RS hideways fully functional maybe a bitch unless some is producing more repros of them now.
