Vehicle Description
This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Pace Car is an awesome classic with an
in-demand style unique to these loaded limited edition icons. But
this also sets the pace in a different way. It was upgraded with a
well-built small block that's part of a solid driving package that
could still have you leading that pack at the Indy 500 if they
asked.
This is a true Z11-pace car replica. That means it wasn't one of
the few on the track (or else you'd add a zero to the end of this
price.) But it is one of only 3,675 examples ever built. That
wasn't even nearly enough to put one in every dealership, and so
people have been seeking these out from day one. Of course, they
are also in-demand because of their style. Hugger Orange debuted
for this year, and it's arguably the boldest way to have your
first-gen Camaro. But rather than paint the whole car, it was used
for an exclusive set or racing stripes against a crisp Dover white.
It's an awesome style where the white looks clean, especially with
the coordinating white top in place. And the stripes look extra
bold as they help highlight the cowl hood and rear spoiler. Plus,
these pace car replicas were real-deal Rally Sports and Super
Sports. That means you get the blackout SS grille, a deep chin
spoiler, and awesome hidden headlight front end (doors are
currently manually operated.) Overall, this is quite a desirable
package with newer paint and well-fitting panels, nothing goes
overboard to be too fancy to drive. That's because you'll really
start to see how this one was made to be enjoyed to the
fullest.
With the touch of a button, the top powers down to reveal one of
the most attractive interiors ever. The houndstooth cloth interiors
are quite rare, and it's even rarer in orange. But the only way you
could ever get it is in a convertible is with the pace car option.
So it's an awesome detail, especially with how nicely they go with
the exterior painted stripes. There are nice factory-style
features, like the deluxe door panels, wood-like trim, a center
console, and headrest on the front bucket seats. There are also
well-integrated upgrades like a retro-style AM/FM digital tuner and
provisions for Vintage Air air conditioning (it will need to be
re-connected and calibrated.) And this is also made to be a better
driver with upgrades like a wood-rimmed sports steering wheel, a
tilt column, and a new dash panel that fits a full set of AutoMeter
Pro-Comp gauges.
Under the hood is a solid small block package. The 350 cubic-inch
V8 is built with aluminum heads, an Edelbrock aluminum intake, and
topped with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. And they made sure
to give this the proper gasket that seals to the cowl hood so that
you can feed fresh air to the motor. There are nice supporting
components, too, like billet fender supports, an MSD ignition, an
MSD alternator, and an aluminum radiator with electric fan. This is
a confident driver that likes to go for a good classic car cruise.
That's why you also have easy driving features like a three-speed
automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, front discs,
and wide BF Goodrich T/As in 15-inch Rally wheels.
This is the Camaro RS/SS that was made to be driven. So if you're
looking for a significant classic that's also a ton of fun on the
road, you know you need this '69 pace car. Call now!
