Vehicle Description
This 1978 Chevrolet Camaro takes exactly what you love about the
2nd gen car's sporty design, and now it upgrades the power, paint,
transmission, and more to deliver the total package you've always
wanted.
This was born a black Camaro, but you know Chevy never made it look
this good. The resent professional respray gives you a modern
clearcoat shine that's full of luster. And a car like this deserves
this kind of sinister-style paint upgrade. After all, they also
took the time to give this a large cowl induction metal hood,
tinted windows, full-width Z/28 rear spoiler, and blackout rear
panel to maximize the intimidation factor. And the modern US Mags
18-inch alloys really give this a nice stance, and at the same
time, the ultra-wide rear ones remind you that there is some
serious power meeting the pavement.
We love Camaros for houndstooth interiors, and this one really
delivers. After all, you not only get that iconic look, but also
the red interior looks like lava radiating from within the black
exterior. There are some nice comfort features, like power windows
and the AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input for your phone. But what
you'll really love are the driver-oriented pieces. The wood-rimmed
Grant sports steering wheel feels grippy in your hands, and it
gives you a clear view of the full gauge panel, including the large
speedo and tach. And that B&M shifter is the bright focal point
of the whole interior.
Under the hood is a tidy motor that looks built for power. It's a
350 cubic-inch V8 built by Barnes Custom Engines out of California.
It was a full performance construction that included the camshaft,
lifters, rod bearings, and piston rings. Plus, you have go-fast
goodies like a new Summit 600 CFM four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock
intake, cast aluminum valve covers, and Hedman headers. You even
have the right supporting components, like an HEI ignition and a
new aluminum radiator w/electric fan. The 700R4 four-speed
automatic transmission is great for both its stout construction and
overdrive comfort. This same mix of power and usability is seen in
the upgrades like new springs, new shocks, and traction bars in the
rear. Add in power steering and power brakes w/discs up front, and
you have a well-balanced power package that's easy to enjoy.
Complete with build receipts, it takes some serious time and
investment to get a fast and comfortable coupe like this custom
Camaro. But you get to skip right to the fun of driving if you call
today!
