Vehicle Description
This second-generation custom 1970 Chevrolet Camaro is a
Pro-Touring build with a modern LS6 V8 engine and 6-speed manual
transmission. As the VIN number indicates, this car was built in
Van Nuys, CA, with an 8-cylinder. From the information gathered, it
spent most of its life out West until it was acquired from Texas by
its last owner, Bryan Everett, in 2013. It was the product of
continuous restoration that was overseen by Vescio's Customizing in
Rogers, MN. It has been driven roughly 2,000 miles since
completion. The vision of the build was to modernize the car
cosmetically and mechanically without comprising the original
design. The exterior has beautiful body lines and is very straight.
It was refinished in DuPont Boyd Coddington Red with Matte Gray
accents laid down by Bo Vescio. The show-quality paint was recently
detailed to a gleaming finish. The iconic front split chrome
bumpers, dual sport mirrors, front spoiler and rear spoiler enhance
the appearance. It was outfitted with all-new glass, stainless
trim, front grille, door handles, taillights, Z/28 emblems and
modern LED headlights. The car has an awesome stance on Billet
Specialties SLC "GTO" wheels that are 18x9 on the front and 19x12
on the rear. The wheels are wrapped with brand-new Firestone
Firehawk Indy 500 tires that are 255-35-18 on the front and
325-30-19 on the rear. A set of Detroit Speed Engineering mini-tubs
were added to accommodate the large rear wheels. The custom
interior was professionally designed and installed by Premier
Upholstery in Rogers, MN. The cabin was first covered with FatMat
sound-deadener, and a new Painless Performance 18-circuit wiring
harness was installed. The interior was wrapped with stitched
leather, suede and metal accents. The dash is home to the black
dash bezel, AutoMeter Ultra Lite II gauges, custom switches and
Kenwood stereo with Bluetooth. The audio is powered by Kenwood
amplifiers with Polk speakers. It's equipped with a Billet
Specialties 14-inch Formula steering wheel, Ringbrothers door sill
plates, Bowler billet shifter and Billet Specialties pedals. The
bucket seats were custom-made, and the driver's seat track was
extended for tall drivers. The rear seats were upholstered to
match. The full-length console was outfitted with the Vintage Air
system controls, two power ports, and front and rear
stainless-steel cup holders. Red LED accent lights were placed
throughout the interior, including the headliner, doors and
console. The trunk compartment was boxed and carpeted. The engine
compartment is nicely detailed throughout. Some of custom upgrades
include black billet hood hinges, a smoothed firewall, Detroit
Speed wiper motor, Wilwood master cylinder, fender support braces,
radiator support cover and Optima Red Top battery. The car is
powered by a TSI built LS6 5.7-liter V8 engine that runs excellent.
The car was dyno-tested with 466hp at the rear tires, which is
documented with a dyno sheet that's included. The engine was set up
with a Texas Speed Torquer 2 cam, ported 243 heads, 92mm FAST
intake, Vintage Air front pulley system and custom valves covers
that match the radiator support. The engine is cooled by a DeWitts
aluminum radiator with dual SPAL electric fans. The engine breathes
through Hooker Competition ceramic-coated headers and 3-inch
MagnaFlow stainless exhaust system. The engine is coupled to a T56
6-speed manual transmission, 3-inch Denny's driveshaft and 12-bolt
Eaton posi-traction rear end with 3.73 gears. The undercarriage is
nicely detailed throughout, and the floors have LizardSkin for
durability. It's equipped with a DSE stainless fuel tank, subframe
connectors and shock bar. It's also equipped with QA1 coilover
shocks, lowering springs, Hotchkis sway bar and Wilwood 4-wheel
disc brakes with red calipers. This car has been completely
serviced and detailed, which is documented with an invoice that's
included. This is the first time it's been marketed for sale. From
the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection.
