Vehicle Description
You'll note that we have a hard time keeping early Camaros in
stock, particularly ultra-clean ones like this 1969 Chevrolet
Camaro RS coupe. With that in mind, if you're looking for one with
a snarling small block, awesome interior, a few choice upgrades,
and a look that dares other cars to race, perhaps you should call
now because this one has it all.
1969 Camaros are quite possibly our #1 best-sellers for good
reason: they look positively awesome. You want street cred? An
F-body is a great way to get it. You want front-row parking at the
next cruise night? This Blue Metallic RS coupe will deliver. It
keeps with the factory formula, since it's hard to improve on the
timeless design (even the factory copied it four decades later),
but the execution is very good. The paint is recent and hugs some
very straight sheetmetal that has enjoyed the ministrations of some
talented body men. There's the usual cowl-induction hood, as well
as spoilers fore and aft, plus painted and cleared dark blue SS
stripes just in case you thought this car isn't arresting enough.
Bright chrome bumpers flank the car at both ends, adding a shiny
bit of punctuation to the all-blue storyline. The brightwork and
trim is also in excellent condition, giving it a grown-up look that
works rather well with the bold stripes and sparkling wheels.
Step inside the car and you'll quickly see that this Camaro has
been thoroughly restored top-to-bottom. The factory buckets wear
fresh houndstooth seat covers and the door panels are in great
shape, too. The center console is nicely woodgrained for a touch of
sophistication and carries our all-time favorite shifter, the GM
horseshoe. Factory gauges remain in the super-clean
vinyl-and-woodgrain dash, and you'll note from the Astro
Ventilation vents that this car was likely originally equipped with
factory A/C, which remains an R12 system and cools very
effectively. A set of auxiliary gauges are installed to the
driver's left, and a period-correct AM/FM/8-track stereo fits
neatly in the original slot and fills the cabin with period-correct
tunes. Out back the ultra-clean trunk offers a nice reproduction
mat and a full-size spare on a Rallye wheel.
Horsepower comes easy thanks to a built 327 cubic inch V8 with an
aggressive tone. Edelbrock supplied the Performer RPM intake
manifold, Holley supplied the 670CM 4-barrel carburetor, and MSD
the distributor and coil. Chevy Orange paint on the block keeps it
looking right under the hood, and a bit of dress-up never hurts,
including the finned valve covers and chrome open-element air
cleaner. There's a new alternator, new fuel pump, new hoses, and a
fresh master cylinder and brake booster so you know it's ready to
run. The TH350 3-speed automatic transmission provides easy
cruising and quick reflexes, and powers a 10-bolt rear end that
doesn't mind the small block's power. Power steering allows for
two-finger driving during longer cruises, and power front disc
brakes bring the whole smoke-show to a stop. Hedman long-tube
headers dump into a dual exhaust system with Flo-Pro mufflers, so
it has an awesome voice, and it remains quite clean underneath
thanks to years of conscientious ownership and clean living. Slick
SS wheels sparkle against the blue paint and wear 215/60R15 front
and 255/60R15 rear staggered BFGoodrich Radial T/A performance
radials.
It's a '69 Camaro RS and it's beautifully finished, so it won't
last long. If you like what you see, please don't hesitate and call
