1968 CAMARO C.O.P.O. TRIBUTE - NEW FRAME-OFF ROTESSERIE BUILD
COMING SOON
We just acquired this 1968 Camaro from a guy who "threw in the
towel" on a nut & bolt frame-off, rotisserie restoration that he
has been building since 2019. He got pretty far too but Covid-19
hit and he got laid off his job so the project came to a screeching
halt and the car had to be sold.
Another victim of this terrible virus. CHECK IT OUT!!!
He told us that he stripped the car to a bare bones and had the
body media blasted clean. Both 1/4's and the trunk floor were
replaced but everything else was solid and clean. The body was
reassembled and fitted to perfection and professionally painted
"Cortez Silver" with PPG base/clear.
It was then powered with a "512" 427 c.i. big block which we were
told had been recently rebuilt and matted to a Muncie 4 speed
transmission with Hurst shifter and a 12 bolt posi-traction rear
with 3:73 gears. It had all new wiring, steering, suspension, brake
and fuel systems installed brand new too.
This is how we bought the car. Needing to be plumbed, wired, fired
and finished. It did come with almost everything to complete the
build including a brand new black standard bucket seat interior and
new in the box carpet, headliner, door panels, instrument cluster &
dash pad as well as all new chrome, trim, lights, lenses, weather
stripping & glass.
We decided to give this car that old school C.O.P.O. sleeper look
and added cowl induction and painted steel wheels with Chevrolet
dog dish (poverty) hub caps with redline tires. Some other features
include power disc brakes, rare fold down back seat, and a brand
new factory dual exhaust system. This car is really turning out
VERY, VERY NICE!! She is brand new everywhere you look and nothing
went overlooked while finishing it's extensive build. DON'T MISS IT
!!
NOTES* THIS CAR IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND THESE PREMILARY
PICTURES ARE JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT THIS CAR LOOKS LIKE.
ONCE IT IS DONE WE WILL TAKE MORE DETAILED PICTURES & VIDEO. THANK
YOU!
