a favorite among Camaro enthusiasts thanks to cleaner and slightly
more aggressive looks due to the small bumper sections on either
side of the grille. This split bumper Camaro is one that is really
hard to divert your eyes from. Awesome color, aggressive stance,
aftermarket wheels, and a custom drivetrain are just a few
highlights of this clean, mean second gen Camaro. Many of you who
are reading this description know that the split bumper was an
option that was available on the 'RS' optioned cars. This car is a
Z27 coded, true SS car, so the split bumpers were added at some
point in this car's existence. In the spring of 2020 the car was
treated to a repaint in the original color of Placer Gold (code 53)
with black stripes added. Fit and finish of the exterior is dialed
in nicely and the paint shows even color and gloss throughout.
Trim, lights, badges, chrome bumpers, and the rear spoiler are in
great condition. You may have noticed that a cowl hood has been
added which actually blends well with the overall look of the car -
it doesn't look too tall. The car has been lowered just a little
bit using all new shocks and springs and polished alloy 17 (f) and
18 (r) wheels by US Mag finish off the aggressive look of the
exterior. Inside the car has been left with the simple factory
styling with a few extras tastefully integrated. The first thing
that we noticed was the Hurst shifter, then once in the driver's
seat, the steering column mounted tach, and auxiliary gauges were
quickly noticeable. The interior shows well, but needs just a few
things finished to make it complete. The headliner is absent,
although the visors, A, B, and C pillars are present. Much like the
awesome paint and body work, a lot of time was spent on the
drivetrain of this Camaro. Under the cowl hood is a 327ci V8 that
has been bored to 337ci mated to a Super T10 manual transmission.
The engine sits in a very clean engine bay and has been treated to
a number of performance parts. The most noticeable are the satin
black valve covers and satin black air cleaner. Accel plug wires
and distributor, Edelbrock intake manifold, headers, and polished
alternator are other highlights. The steering components are new, a
new clutch spring was recently added, new exhaust from the engine
to the tailpipes was installed as well as a rebuilt and balanced
driveshaft. A rear axle with 4.10 gears and posi traction sends
power to the rear wheels. Take a listen to our video, this car
sounds great thanks to a lumpy idle - it's obvious that the engine
is no slouch. This is an aggressive looking Camaro that is ready to
perform. Placer Gold is such a great color on this car, which does
not fall into the Granny Gold category that so many people feel
gold cars fall into. Aristophanes is credited with saying, there is
no honest man - not one - that can resist the attraction of gold.
We challenge you to resist the attraction of this car, it's a car
