Vehicle Description
This recently built 1967 Chevrolet Camaro Restomod is one of those
cars where you can see where the money was spent before you even
get close. With a killer Matte Maroon paint job, a gorgeous
resto-mod interior, and the muscle-toned heart of a 350 V8/700R4
drivetrain under the hood, this pro-built, vintage sports car shows
that every bit of the massive build cost was money well spent.
You can always spot the good ones because they seem to glow
compared to the cars around them. It can be difficult to say
specifically what sets them apart, but they just have that "it"
factor that draws attention towards them. Cars like this, that were
pro-built upon a sound structure and punctuated with bold choices
that separate them from the usual crowd, these are the cars we'll
remember. At any rate, the uniquely sinister Matte Maroon paint on
this car looks simply stunning; a beautiful custom shade that looks
especially attractive when the sunlight dances off the Camaro's
panels. The paint job was completed just 1,045 miles ago when the
restoration was finished, and even though there are some
imperfections and a couple signs of use (this is strictly a
driver-grade car), you simply can't beat that curb appeal. A chin
spoiler and cowl induction hood up front, along with a ducktail
spoiler in the rear, are mandatory for any self-respecting
Restomod, as are those painted-on gloss black SS-style stripes that
cover the rockers and run from the tip of the chin spoiler to the
bottom of the rear valance. The stripes are a perfect complement
and offset to the flat maroon finish, breaking up the unique shade
just right. The blacked-out grille and hide-away headlights are
RS-spec all the way, while the lower grille and fog lights below
look very sporty and set the tone up front. All the small details
were finished in support of the common color theme, including the
painted rear bumper, the blacked-out 'Camaro' badges on the front
fenders, and the blacked-out gas cap out back. Sinister yet clean,
this slick, top driver-quality Restomod is ready to scare the
neighbors.
Black is the only interior color you'd want on a Camaro like this,
and the combination of vintage and new components inside does a
great job to continue the car's performance theme. A sporty set of
custom leather buckets borrowed from a late-model Camaro SS anchor
the cabin up front, with a matching set in the back, and the supple
black leather is contrasted with silver accents and 'SS' logos
embossed in the seatbacks up front. Plush black carpets protected
by black mats fit snug atop sound deadening insulation, matching
door panels are at the flanks, and there's a custom center console
with a B&M shifter in the middle that manages the 700R4 4-speed
automatic transmission below. That purpose-built center console
also houses a Classic Instruments tachometer that minds the revs,
along with an Alpine head unit that powers tunes through upgraded
speakers found throughout the cabin. The slick black dash was
reworked with a plush pad up top, there's an arsenal of
fresh-looking stock gauges inside stock pods ahead of the driver
that work with the trio of auxiliary units under the dash, and all
the bright knobs, switches, and trim provide perfect contrast
against the black backdrop. A sporty, leather-wrapped NRG steering
wheel mounted atop a tilt column feels great in the driver's hands,
and with options like cold Vintage Air A/C, power seats, and an
Alpine AM/FM/CD/AUX stereo, this custom cabin is a very comfortable
place in which to spend some time. The spacious trunk was finished
in matching black carpets and has plenty of room to haul-away all
those "Best in Class" trophies it's bound to win from the local car
show circuit.
They didn't mess around when it came time for horsepower either,
with a fuel-injected 350 V8 motor nestled under the hood. The block
was installed just 1,045 miles ago when the entire car was
restored, and with a Fi-Tech fuel-injection unit up top, it's a
snarky, responsive small block with lots of power on tap. Tasteful
use of body-colored paint and blacked-out components gives the
engine bay a killer look, but the overall vibe, like the rest of
the car, is pure Restomod. A big aluminum radiator, a maroon Demon
open-air cleaner, blacked-out valve covers with maroon script, and
long-tube headers all make it mechanically sound and a ton of fun
to drive. The 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission is a perfect
match for the motor, and it spins a heavy-duty 10-bolt rear end
with highway-friendly gears inside. There are also power front disc
brakes to keep everything under control, and power steering that
mean driving this Camaro is a task just about anyone can handle. A
custom dual exhaust with chambered mufflers give it that awesome
sound we all love and virtually everything under the car was
painted and cleaned up, ready to show off. Even the oversized
blacked-out alloy wheels are ideally suited to the car and wear
225/40/18 front and 245/40/18 rear performance radials that set
that perfectly staggered stance.
Incredibly clean and slick, this dialed-in, recently restored
Restomod Camaro stands out in a very crowded field. Call today!
