Vehicle Description
When you work somewhere as cool as RK Motors, it's tough not to
lose that staring, 'kid in a candy store' innocence that used to
come out at every car show. Thankfully, offerings like this
brilliant Camaro roll through the doors and continually revitalize
your love of brash American muscle. Classics that serve as a simple
reminder of the innate goodness of one of the purest and most
popular niches in the collector car hobby. Churning roughly 500
horsepower out of a professionally built stroker motor, this Chevy
moves swift and makes all the right sounds. Funneling torque
through a tough Monster Transmission 3-speed, the car will be a
well-mannered companion for years to come. And, featuring a lightly
massaged chassis, this sweet coupe is the literal embodiment of
"first class resto-mod". Looking for some sizzling Detroit metal
that can turn heads from here to California? This panther is just
the fashion you've been craving!
TIMELESS GOOD LOOKS
Thanks to acute restoration that's been performed as needed, this
fantastic F1 wraps timeless Chevrolet style around retro comfort
and precise performance! The foundation for that varied appeal is a
clean body that's been massaged strikingly straight. Those lines
are coated in glossy two-stage that decks familiar orange base in
familiar white Rally Stripes. And today, this cool Camaro makes an
easy habit of both stealing the show and owning the street!
At the front of this factory V8 coupe, a black-trimmed grille
centers a bright "SS" emblem between modern headlights, a polished
bumper and 1968-exclusive parking lamps. Above that grille, a
shaved header leads a steel Cowl Induction Hood, which fronts
stainless-trimmed glass that's cleared by satin wipers. At the
sides of that glass, a crisp profile hangs hooped door handles
between factory mirrors, bright drip rails and factory marker
lamps. And at the back of that profile, a second polished bumper
reflects an "SS" branded fuel cap between a familiar D80 spoiler
and 1968-exclusive tail lamps.
SMALL BLOCK STROKER
Take a look at this Chevy's attractive engine bay and you'll find a
little over $13K of professionally built stroker motor that,
according to the car's previous owner, makes right around 500
horsepower! A perfect mixture of fuel and oxygen is supplied by a
coated Quick Fuel 4-barrel, which floats stainless fluid lines, a
Jegs linkage and a liquid-filled pressure gauge between a small
Summit fuel filter and an aggressive Edelbrock air cleaner. That
carb rides a clean Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake, which feeds
lightweight Dart Pro 1 aluminum heads. Those heads work well with a
hydraulic roller cam, hydraulic roller lifters and quality
Sportsman Racing Products pistons. Fire is provided by a hot MSD
Pro-Billet distributor, which sequences spark between an MSD
Blaster 2 coil, a billet-trimmed Optima battery and loomed Taylor
ThunderVolt plug wires. Spent gases roll through coated Hooker
Super Competition headers. At the front of those tubes, a billet
March serpentine drive spins a polished water pump between polished
power steering and a polished alternator. That pump feeds an
aluminum Cold Case radiator that's outfitted with corrugated hoses,
a polished cap and a spry puller fan. And the car's
Chevrolet-branded engine bay hosts a multitude of attractive
dress-up items, from trick hoses and polished fluid reservoirs to
billet brace bars and chrome Chevrolet valve covers.
EVEN BETTER
The gnarly 383 sends power to a proven Turbo-Hydramatic 350 3-speed
that was sourced directly from the pros at Monster Transmission.
That gearbox, built to provide "aggressive, race-style shifts" all
the way up to 900 horsepower, spins torque to a familiar 10-bolt
axle that's stuffed with big, 3.73 gears. That exceptional
drivetrain is framed by a thoughtfully upgraded suspension that's
finished with tubular control arms and a big sway bar. When the
road starts to twist, spry power steering maximizes driver input.
Power-assisted stops are greatly improved by a polished booster, a
polished master cylinder, The Right Stuff Detailing proportioning
and retrofitted 1969 Camaro calipers that clamp drilled and slotted
rotors. Spent gases race from the aforementioned headers into
either electronic cutouts or rowdy, dual-chamber mufflers. And
rubber scars the pavement thanks to dramatic Boss Motorsports 338s,
which turn 245/40R18 Delinte Thunder D7s in front of 275/30ZR20
Delinte Thunder D7s.
TASTEFULLY UPDATED
The Standard Black Interior hiding behind this Camaro's short doors
is a mostly factory affair that's been tastefully updated where it
counts. Short bucket seats frame a wood-trimmed console, which
slides a factory shifter behind AutoMeter American Muscle accessory
gauges. In front of that island, a glossy dash hangs billet foot
pedals below more AutoMeter American Muscle telemetry and a Custom
Autosound head unit. That seat, dash and console trifecta is
completely framed by a tight headliner, fade-free side panels and
clean carpet that's protected by Camaro-themed mats. The driver
wheels a handsome Rally Wheel, and the passengers stash baubles in
a carpeted trunk.
With its awesome small block, cool aesthetics and road-ready
chassis, this Camaro is the very definition of American muscle. In
the market for a top-notch classic that can win trophies and own
the road? This Chevy is your kind of car!
