Vehicle Description
'69 Camaros are so well-loved in the car culture that they are
practically becoming their own genre. So if you're building one,
you better bring your A-game. This one does. The build is
state-of-the-art all around. The engine is a new 376 LS crate motor
with only test miles since completion. Behind it is an American
Powertrain Tremec 5-series 5-speed manual with a ceramic clutch.
The engine compartment looks professional with carbon fiber,
billet, and polished pieces throughout including a Concept One
front pulley system. Cooling is vital for a max-performance engine,
and this one benefits from a Be Cool radiator with electric cooling
fans. A distinguishing trait of this car is that it is properly
equipped to handle the horsepower. The frame and subframe have been
replaced, powdercoated, and cross-braced to handle flexing under
high torque loads. In back, it has a Detroit Speed rear end with
3.73 gears and a GM 12-bolt axle housing with billet Torino housing
ends. The upper and lower tubular swing arm front suspension has
adjustable coilover shocks. The detailing is demonstrated by
interior-matched carbon fiber covers. When you open the doors, you
get an instant message that this car means business. Check out the
bolstered buckets with RJS harnesses and the beautifully executed
custom carbon fiber console. The body work is outstanding too. The
gunmetal gray paint is sprayed over new sheet metal. The quarter
panels have been braced for anti-crumpling. And the rear spoiler is
designed to provide max downforce with a minimum of drag. It's
smoothly integrated into the decklid and quarter panels for a
seamless, distinctive look. As over-the-top as this Camaro looks
and performs, it's as well-behaved as your daily driver. This one
definitely deserves an "A", as well as your consideration.
