Vehicle Description
FACT: The Camaro is one of the most legendary cars in
existence.
That's a tenet virtually every car enthusiast believes in. But, as
we all know, every legend has its kings. That's where cars like
this superb pro street Rally Sport come into the picture. In fact,
it's pretty much the embodiment of a king: timeless style,
unmatched power, and universal respect that's been bolstered by
conquests throughout the blacktop. Combining 540 cubic inches of
buff Merlin big block with a stout Turbo-Hydramatic 4-speed and a
thoroughly reimagined suspension, this gruff ground-pounder draws
big crowds and big compliments. And if you're one of the many
enthusiasts looking for a fun classic that's unrelentingly cool,
it's your ticket to car guy nirvana!
THE POWER PLAY
Rising to the top is all about power, and in this coupe, power
takes the form of massive Merlin III wizardry that, with the aid of
Kingsport, Tennessee's White Performance, turns an incredible 717
dyno-proven horsepower into 706 lb./ft. of tire-spinning torque! At
the top of that magic mill, a K&N X-Stream air cleaner funnels
breeze into an Aeromotive-controlled Quick Fuel carburetor, which
rides a coated Pro Comp intake. At the sides of that plane, custom
valve covers balance familiar K&N breathers on lightweight
aluminum heads. Under those heads, a tough iron block spins a
predictable 4340 crank beneath a fluid hydraulic cam and smooth
hydraulic lifters. Those internals play well with an MSD Power Pro
coil, an MSD Pro-Billet distributor and color-keyed plug wires. At
the front of those wires, a polished March serpentine drive spins a
trusty Edelbrock water pump between a polished alternator, a
polished AC compressor and polished timing hardware. In front of
those ancillaries, a thick Griffin radiator makes excellent use of
a polished water neck, a custom expansion tank and two SPAL puller
fans. Exhaust duties are handled by coated Hooker Competition
headers. And aesthetically, Satin Black paint frames niceties like
braided hoses, dressed fender braces, a polished hood latch and
polished Eddie Motorsports supports.
THE HOOK UP
Bottom-side, a 2,600-2,800 RPM stall kicks a tough 200R4 4-speed
that's finished with a 10-inch converter, an aluminum stator and a
billet super servo. That gearbox twists a fresh Ford 9-inch that
spins a locking differential around streetable gears. That
driveline pushes a triangulated 4-bar rear-clip, which seats modern
VariShock coil-overs beneath well-integrated mini tubs. Opposite
that clip, tubular control arms leads traditional power steering.
At the corners, attractive Aerospace Components calipers squeeze
drilled and slotted rotors. Exhaust floats from the aforementioned
headers in to custom, large-diameter pipes, which center an
X-shaped crossover in front of single-chamber Flowmaster mufflers.
And power meets the pavement through black-trimmed alloys, which
spin 26x6.00R15 Mickey Thompson Sportsmans in front of 325/50R15
Mickey Thompson ET Street Rs.
THE FAMILIAR APPEAL
That impressive scroll of components rolls in a detailed, ground-up
restoration that was completed in late 2017. Slick silver 2-stage
seems smooth as silk over solid body panels that are straight and
well-aligned. And that alignment serves as an excellent canvas for
painted Super Sport stripes. Those stripes begin at an "SS" branded
grille, which hangs Detroit Speed Rally Sport headlights above a
polished bumper and a tasteful D80 chin spoiler. Above that grille,
a Camaro-branded header leads a ZL2 Cowl Induction Hood, which
fronts fresh glass that's cleared by Detroit Speed Selecta-Speed
wipers. At the sides of that glass, a sculpted profile cages
polished door handles and ornate quarter louvers in colorful
badging, standard rocker spears and correct chrome mirrors. And at
the back of the car, a Satin Black, "SS" branded valance seats a
retrofitted master power switch between a D80 deck spoiler, Rally
Sport taillights and a second polished bumper.
THE COMMAND CENTER
Between the doors you'll find a stylish Black interior that, in
addition to being one of the most popular and versatile themes for
timeless Detroit muscle, features choice upgrades where it counts.
At the center of the car, multi-point Simpson harnesses join modern
leather seats to provide far more support than old school factory
buckets. In front of those mitts, a padded dash wraps reliable Auto
Meter gauges, complete with a GPS speedometer, in a snazzy faux
carbon fiber instrument panel. A trick TCI Outlaw Shifter puts the
power down. That heavy-duty handle works well with a reproduction
Chevrolet Rally Wheel, which laps a tilting Flaming River column.
And items like a sturdy roll bar and Vintage Air climate control
are significant upgrades to both comfort and safety.
It doesn't take Oxford's Guide to Gearheads to understand the
appeal of this beastly F1. Combining incredible performance with
timeless aesthetics and an athletic demeanor, this killer custom
puts the "pro" in pro street. And best of all, being a first
generation Camaro, it'll always be one of the most in-demand
classics on the planet. In the market for some no excuses metal
that'll draw a crowd wherever it goes? This Chevy is your kind of
car!
