Vehicle Description
In an era of brutal Hellcats, sensational Shelbys and mid-engine
Stingrays, it's safe to say professionally built performance is
alive and well. And that level of accessibility and reliability is
certainly a great thing for enthusiasts and admirers alike. But
what about the buyer who doesn't want the best-tailored version of
a suit thousands of others can buy? You know, the person who
strives to be truly one-of-a-kind. Well, they could always call up
the octane junkies here at RK Motors and check out something like
this exquisite Camaro resto-mod. Mixing a Mast Motorsports LS3 with
five forward gears, a heavily upgraded chassis and looks that could
charm da Vinci, this Chevy literally defines the phrase "timeless
classic"!
MAKE CLASSIC BETTER, AND BETTER CLASSIC
A jaw-dropping pony car that mixes a modern stance with marvelous
mid-'60s swagger, this stunning panther is the product of a
ground-up build that was extremely thorough and exceptionally
detailed. That restoration is capped by a solid body that aligns
excellent panel gaps under glossy and correct LeMans Blue
two-stage. That pigment is led by a familiar Super Sport Grille,
which hangs traditionally clear parking lamps between a guarded
bumper and modern tri-bar headlights. Behind those torches, a
Camaro-branded header leads an ornate Super Sport Hood, which looks
great against polished wipers and polished mirrors. Those mirrors
reflect a stainless-trimmed greenhouse that's tilted under correct
White vinyl. That skin coordinates well with striking Super Sport
striping, which joins Standard rocker trim to parallel factory
markers, factory handles and crisp fender badging. And at the back
of the car, a requisite D80 spoiler shades a Super Sport fuel cap,
1968-exclusive taillights and a second guarded bumper.
MAST MOTORSPORTS POWER
What good is all that show if you can't back it up with a little
go? Enact this Chevy's billet latch and expand its Detroit Speed
hood supports to reveal 6.2 liters of E85-powered LS3 that was
sourced directly from the pros at Mast Motorsports! At the top of
that all-aluminum beast, a bright K&N XStream air cleaner feeds
a muted Accufab throttle body, which is paired with a requisite
Aeromotive regulator and a liquid-filled pressure gauge. A polished
mid-rise intake feeds polished, large-bore heads, which tilt
custom, color-keyed valve covers over a high quality Jesel
valvetrain and Crane Hi Intensity roller lifters. A Lunati 4-inch
crank spins asymmetrical JE pistons and Callies Ultra rods at the
sides of a custom-grind cam. Coated American Racing headers thread
short MSD plug wires and custom aluminum motor mounts. Charge comes
courtesy of a polished alternator, which joins a polished AC
compressor and a color-keyed water pump behind a polished Concept
One serpentine drive. Cooling is provided by a polished radiator,
which is paired with twined DCM puller fans. Everything
communicates well thanks to FAST XFI engine management. The car's
glossy engine bay is decked with niceties like a polished master
cylinder, Fesler brace bars and a Ringbrothers clutch reservoir.
Excellent detailing includes stainless lines, a billet wing nut and
tough ARP bolts. And, according to this choice Chevy's owner, it
all adds up to around 700 horsepower!
MAKE GOOD BETTER, AND BETTER BEST
Park this classic on a lift and you'll find a substantially
enhanced chassis that's prepped, primed and ready to roll. A tough
Tremec 5-speed turns a dressed 12-bolt axle that's mild enough to
conquer any highway. That proven driveline pushes an aftermarket
4-link, which squares tubular bars around requisite mini tubs and
adjustable coil-overs. That clips gets led by a traditional
independent front-half, which wraps a big Hotchkis sway bar around
tubular control arms. Tight turns come courtesy of a power-assisted
AGR gearbox. Polished Baer calipers squeeze 24 pistons of stopping
power around a quartet of drilled and slotted rotors.
Large-diameter exhaust stretches clean ceramic coating around
familiar Mandrel bends and deep MagnaFlow mufflers. Handsome Intro
Retros spin 235/35ZR19 Toyo Proxes in front of 345/25ZR20 Toyo
Proxes. And the build's excellent detailing is carried through
welded subframe connectors and a big stainless fuel tank.
CLASSICALLY SIMPLE
Pop the lightweight doors and you'll find a tastefully tweaked
interior that continues this Camaro's striking visuals. Front and
center, correct Deluxe Bucket Seats sport correct Blue hides. In
front of those thrones, a lightly modified dash hangs factory
telemetry, complete with a cool Tic-Toc-Tach, above direct-fit
audio and a convenient FAST controller. Plush carpet frames billet
foot pedals next to a factory console that's built with four-pack
accessory gauges and a leather-tinged Hurst shifter. Correct Deluxe
Door Panels add a dash of style. Modern air conditioning keeps
everything cool. And the driver spins a polished and bowtie-branded
steering wheel around a serious shift light.
Built for folks who like to show and go, this Camaro is the perfect
opportunity to own a tasteful, lights-out classic that's virtually
unmatched in performance and appeal. The car looks absolutely
timeless. And with a roster of top notch equipment that's already
carefully spec-d and seamlessly assembled, it's a one-way ticket to
instant gratification!
