is now and forever the most cherished muscle car ever made. �€"Car
and Driver, August 2011 Car and Driver is far from alone in hailing
the 1969 Camaro. Internet automotive site, thedrive.com, weighed in
with: The '69 Camaro is the most loved car in America. What
accounts for this level of passion? Car and Driver again: This
model year's combination of classic beauty, tidy size, and ample
under-hood space makes it a favorite starting point for tuners and
collectors. GM vice-president of global design Ed Welburn not only
owns one, he all but cloned the '69 Camaro to renew Chevy's fight
with the immortal Ford Mustang. It seems the urge to improve on the
late-sixties technology is almost irresistible, because as
thedrive.com put it: ... leaving the '69 Camaro in pristine,
factory-sealed condition is boring. The SS '69 Camaro offered here
is a factory-original restoration in Burnished Brown (code 61)
exterior paint with a black vinyl roof over a black interior. This
is a true option-code X11 original Super Sport. The car's odometer
currently shows 89,126 miles or roughly 1,700 miles per-year since
new. The quality of the restoration work is absolutely first-class
in every respect making it a rare ownership opportunity. The
excellent exterior paint finish is the result of the professional
application. The surface is smooth, evenly (and deeply) glossy,
with no flaws. The medium-brown metallic color was an excellent
choice: understated but elegant, especially so with the vinyl top.
The underside of the hood and trunk lid, and all door surfaces are
properly painted. (To best assess the quality of the paint and trim
finishes, be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in
the accompanying gallery.) Chrome trim-including window and
roof-edge surrounds, ice tray hood adornments, door handles, grille
and taillight trim, rear-fender trim, and both bumpers-is all in
excellent condition. Factory-correct badging includes the SS emblem
in the front grille and another on the rear fascia, Camaro-script
badge on the front-left forward of the hood, the SS emblem together
with the Camaro-script on both front fenders, and the 350 engine
badges at the forward edge of the front fenders. The white hockey
stick side stripes are perfect. Cabin glass and lighting lenses are
clear and undamaged. Stock chrome wheels with SS center caps are
mounted with period-correct Firestone® Wide Oval
raised-white-letter performance tires. Inside, the car's stock
appointments have been maintained with all surfaces in virtually
like-new condition. Black door trim, for example, is stock and
shows no flaws. Front bucket seats-upholstered in black vinyl with
a vertically pleated design-retain a like-new appearance free of
wear or damage of any sort. The stock, leather-wrapped, 2-spoke,
SS-branded steering wheel is equally perfect down to its
chrome-finished plastic trim. The 120-mph speedometer and
4,700-rpm-redline tachometer are mounted in square frames with an
analog clock in between. Four square-design engine-monitoring
gauges are mounted at the front edge of the center console. The
original AM push-button radio remains mounted, and a rare,
factory-installed, forward-facing 8-track tape player (Bread
cassette included) is also mounted in the center-console armrest.
