Vehicle Description
A new year often inspires thoughts about the future. Planning,
resolutions and idealizing what should be instead of optimizing
what is. But whatever happened to the 'here and now'? You know,
living in the moment and enjoying what we have as opposed to
fighting for constant betterment and forever prolonging joy. So
many enthusiasts are enthralled with owning the biggest, baddest
and awesome-est garage trophy that they completely lose sight of
the reason they fell in love with cars in the first place. Have you
ever met any seasoned gearhead who reminisces about huge residuals
or plastic trophies? That's why cars like this sweet '69 Camaro
tend to leave our showroom almost as fast as they arrive. Sure,
it's a stellar classic that wears a sorted, professional
restoration. And yes, we're willing to bet it'll build some value
and grab a few trophies. But it's also the kind of car you buy
because you actually enjoy working on, driving in, and playing with
Detroit's finest metal. So, if you've been nodding in agreement
with everything mentioned, this choice Chevy belongs in your
garage!
TIME TO TURN HEADS
Fully sorted and ready to rock, this awesome Camaro rolled out of a
detailed, professional restoration as a curve-carving beast that
virtually craves Goodguys AutoCross competition! Timeless
aesthetics kick off with slick PPG Lemans Blue paint that been
buried in six coats of clear. At the front of that ceramic-coated
pigment, a polished bumper splits a shaved grille, Marquez Design
parking lamps, a requisite chin spoiler and LED Anvil Auto
headlights that are hidden by Detroit Speed Rally Sport doors.
Opposite those torches, a Camaro-branded header leads a short Cowl
Induction Hood, which fronts stainless-trimmed glass that's cleared
by 7-speed Detroit Speed wipers. At the sides of those blades, a
striped profile plants traditional mirrors and factory door handles
between flowing Camaro scripts, optional quarter louvers and
tasteful rocker trim. And, opposite those painted ribbons, a second
polished bumper frames a second spoiler, aftermarket taillights and
a custom LSX valance emblem.
LS + X
Speaking of LSX, enact this Chevy's muted Ringbrothers hood
supports and you'll find 454 cubic inches of Chevrolet Performance
LSX small block that's wedged between a smoothed firewall and
exquisite Anvil Auto carbon fiber fenders. Straight from the
General, this exclusive package utilizes a tough iron block, a
forged 4340 crank, forged 4340 rods, forged aluminum pistons and a
hydraulic roller cam to turn stout 11 to 1 compression into 627
horsepower and 586 lb./ft. of pavement-slaying torque! At the front
of the mill, remote K&N filters funnel wind through satin tubes
that are cinched to custom carbon fiber air boxes. Those boxes feed
Harrop's race-inspired Hurricane intake, which is bolted to
aluminum LSX-LS7 heads that are finished with spry roller lifters.
Beneath those heads, Ultimate Headers, specifically tailored to the
car's Speedtech front-clip, frame thick Taylor ThunderVolt 50
wires. In front of those tubes, a Jones Racing Products pulley
spins quick PSC power steering beside an ATI Super Damper, a
low-mount alternator and a small AC compressor. Cooling is provided
by a large Griffin radiator, which cycles fluid around two SPAL
puller fans, an integrated oil cooler and a fabricated catch can.
Everything communicates well thanks to Speartech engine management
and American Autowire wiring. First class detailing includes a
Ringbrothers clutch cylinder, a Wilwood master cylinder, trick
dipsticks and trick fender bars. And a cool dash of style comes
courtesy of fully finished heads that appear to wear GM Cyber Gray
Metallic 2-stage.
PERFORMANCE WITH EASE
Behind the potent engine, a tough RAM throwout bearing kicks a
dual-disc McLeod RST clutch, which jerks a close-ratio Tremec T56
Magnum 6-speed. That gearbox makes excellent use of a balanced,
steel driveshaft to twist a vented Strange 9-inch that's stuffed
with a posi-traction differential, 4.10 gears, 35-spline axles and
Ford Timken bearings. Those axles roll on a triangulated Ridetech
4-link that's finished with double-adjustable coil-over-shocks.
That clip pushes a Speedtech extReme front-half, which wraps an
adjustable sway bar around two more Ridetech double-adjustable
coil-overs. That chassis is solidified by sturdy Hotchkis subframe
connectors, which parallel a modified transmission tunnel and
quality Detroit Speed mini tubs. Turns come courtesy of athletic
power rack-and-pinion steering. Stops are provided by 14-inch
drilled and slotted rotors, which are clamped 4 and 6-piston
Wilwood Superlites. Three-inch, TIG-welded stainless funnels spent
gases through rowdy Magnaflow mufflers. A steady stream of fossils
is supplied by Detroit Speed Vaporworx fuel technology, which
modulates an 800-1,000 horsepower CTS-V pump inside a narrowed
Rick's stainless tank. And at the corners, forged Formula 43 wheels
carry 295/30ZR18 front and 335/30ZR18 rear Michelin Pilot
Sports.
RIDE WITH PRECISION
Open the doors and you'll find a purposeful custom interior that
was installed by the folks at Middletown, New York's Gillin Auto
Interiors. In addition to wrapping four-point Schroth Racing
harnesses around BMW leather, the car's custom bucket seats have
enough travel to comfortably accommodate a 6'4" driver who's
wearing a helmet. In front of those thrones, a Detroit Speed dash
centers a digital gear display amid custom Speedhut telemetry,
which caps Vintage Air conditioning and ZL1 pushbutton ignition.
Rich Mercedes carpet floats a custom console that's finished with
an S1 Sequential shifter and GT40-style toggles for Nu Relics
windows and Modo Innovations door locks. Custom side panels frame a
removable crossbar that's complete with an H3R quick connect fire
extinguisher. An Alcantera headliner shades a trick mirror that
doubles as a backup camera. The driver spins a wrapped Grip Royal
steering wheel around Speartech Cruise Control and a modern,
tilting column. Audio is top notch, with a Bluetooth Polk head unit
feeding a 10-inch subwoofer and four 6.5-inch Rockford Fosgate
speakers. And cool details include metal foot pedals, machined door
pulls, Anvil Auto carbon fiber sill plates and Digital Guard Dawg
Remote Keyless Entry.
Is there a better way to enjoy a warm Summer day than behind the
wheel of a sweet '60s muscle car? With sublime LS power, a
seriously athletic suspension and a thoughtfully upgraded interior,
this fully sorted pro-tourer is infinitely stylish and everyday
reliable. Looking for a highly desirable classic that'll provide
years of weekend fun? Don't miss the chance to claim this
incredible Camaro!
