Vehicle Description
This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro has been restored to be exceptionally
awesome. That means a period-correct L72 427 big block, the added
control of a five-speed, an upgraded A/C interior, and well-done
full paint package. And while all that already makes it
irresistible, there are also some extra cool details that you need
to read on to discover.
Cortez Silver was a great color to have in 1969, and it only gets
better on this coupe. This was given a full restoration only about
6k miles ago, and so this precious metal color has a true treasured
shine. It also helps that the light rolls evenly around this car
thanks to nice body lines. You can tell there was a solid
investment in the bumpers, trim, and rockers to make sure the
brightwork rivaled the paint for shine. It also has some nice
performance touches, like the full-width rear spoiler and cowl hood
with callout. Darker details like the front chin spoiler and
blackout SS grille not only look good against the silver, but also
they go nicely with the premium black vinyl roof. When we get to
the details about the upgraded motor, you'll kind of get the
feeling like you'd get from one of Yenko's COPO special order
Camaros. And has extra context here, because the trim tag tells us
this was originally a true special order car with special order
paint!
The black accents of the exterior get you ready for the all black
interior. The front seats are upgraded to new Procar high-back
units to give you terrific bolstering, and there's a cup holder
center console in-between. The carpeting, door panels, and dash
also look nice to give you a fresh and dark interior. There are
well-integrated comfort upgrades like the retro-style AM/FM digital
tuner and R134a air conditioning. Plus, you have the best in
driver-oriented features, like a wood-rimmed Chevy three-spoke
sports steering wheel on a tilt column, Hurst shifter, and full
gauge package with large speedo and tach supplements by SunPro
readouts.
Under the hood is what the consignor is claiming to be a 1969
L72-spec 427 cubic-inch V8. We believe this to be true as it has
the correct 3963512 casting on the rear of the block. That's the
exact kind of block you found in the ultra-desirable Yenko COPO
Camaros. So it's no wonder the engine bay is tidy and ready to show
off. This one was a warranty block and an awesome rebuild fortified
and enhanced with a steel crank, H-beam rods, forged pistons,
roller rockers, solid lifters, and a Zeus high-rise intake. It
inhales deeply with a Holley Performance four-barrel carburetor,
and Hooker headers add to the power and the rumble as it exhales
with authority from the three-inch dual exhaust. The big motor is
supported by all the right components, including an MSD ignition
and a large aluminum radiator w/electric fans. You'll love the full
control you get over this mighty motor with the Tremec five-speed
manual transmission with upgraded package including Hayes
bellhousing with scatter shield. This sends the power to a heavy
duty 10-bolt Positraction rear running Richmond 3.73 gears. As you
look at the undercarriage photos, you'll be reminded of how clean
the whole build is. Plus, you'll also spot a Hotchkis front sway
bar, Hotchkis frame connectors, Lakewood traction bars, and new
Bilstein shocks. Power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and
wide BF Goodrich T/As complete this full muscle car package.
This Camaro is powerful, smooth, strong, unique, and absolutely
irresistible. So you know you need it in your garage. Call
