Vehicle Description
Dubbed "Tour De Force," this 1970 Chevrolet Camaro SS is an X-rated
muscle car built by Health Elmer Restorations and Pryde
Fabrication. It's equipped with a Detroit Speed Engineering (DSE)
full roll cage from front to back and a DSE subframe with subframe
connectors for precise performance. It's achieved multiple Goodguys
awards, including Gazette Pick, Mighty Muscle Pick, Builders Choice
and Muscle Machine of the year participant, and it was a Goodguys
Autocross participant. It has been featured in multiple magazines,
including Goodguys and Popular Hot Rodding. The documentation for
the awards and magazines is included. This second-generation Camaro
is the ultimate street machine with its aggressive appearance and
modern technology. Finished in Gunmetal Gray with black trim, it
was outfitted with an Anvil carbon-fiber hood, trunk lid and rear
filler panel. Some additional exterior custom touches include
third-generation Camaro mirrors, Buick door handles, and narrowed
and painted front bumper, and all the tinted glass was replaced.
The car sits on Satin Black Rushforth Whiplash 18-inch wheels
wrapped in new BFGoodrich G-Force Rival 275-35-18 tires with the
front wheels 18x10; the rear has a DSE mini-tub kit for the massive
18x12 wheels with new BFGoodrich 335-30-18 tires. The one-of-a-kind
interior was done by the Upholstery Shop and Sound Expressions. It
resembles a high-tech aircraft cockpit more than a 52-year-old car.
Some of the interior custom features include billet aluminum trim
throughout, metal dash, aviation-inspired billet gauge bezels,
Speed Hut gauges, vents, push-button start, tilt steering column,
MOMO steering wheel, Vintage Air climate-control system, door
panels, door handles, rear panels, pedals, RECARO leather front and
rear seats, AM Safe Aviation four-point front seat harnesses, rear
seat belts, console with shifter, power window switches and cup
holder. It's equipped with a high-end Pioneer and Rockford Fosgate
sound system consisting of a modern stereo, two amplifiers, two
tweeters, four speakers and three subwoofers. The trunk compartment
was boxed and carpeted to match the interior theme. The engine
compartment is highly detailed with many custom features
throughout. The firewall was painted the body color and dressed in
custom trim. The Anvil carbon-fiber hood is held with black
aluminum hinges. The car is powered by a Mach Development 427 V8
engine that dyno-tested over 600hp. The engine was built with
high-quality performance parts such as a SCAT forged crankshaft,
Carrillo rods, JE forged pistons, COMP camshaft, Dart aluminum
heads and Manley valves. The engine was dressed with custom valve
covers with breather vent tanks, March Performance Pro Track air
cleaner, Vintage Air front runner pulley system and Holley Sniper
fuel-injection system. The engine is cooled by a Ron Davis aluminum
radiator, DSE water pump and dual electric fans. The engine
breathes out custom headers and dual 3-inch black ceramic-coated
exhaust with Borla mufflers. The engine is coupled to a TREMEC T56
Magnum 6-speed manual transmission with a McLeod Racing twin-disc
clutch. The power is transferred to the DSE narrowed 9-inch rear
end with Truetrac differential with 3.89 gears. It's equipped with
a DSE rack & pinion power steering system with DSE Delphi 600 pump.
The undercarriage is highly detailed with many custom features
throughout. The front suspension consists of C6 spindles, DSE
splined sway bar and JRi coilovers. The rear suspension consists of
a DSE QUADRALink triangulated 4-link with splined sway bar and JRi
coilovers. The Hydratech power braking system includes a Wilwood
master cylinder and Baer 6-piston 4-wheel disc brakes. This vehicle
has recently been serviced and detailed, which is documented with
an invoice that is included. From the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection.
