An LS3 swapped split bumper Camaro Restomod! This car is turnkey
and ready to drive anywhere! It's a fresh restoration with only 800
miles since completion. This car was restored by a professional
with over 40 years of experience working on classic cars. The paint
and body work are top quality, and it has all original sheet metal
except the upgraded cowl hood. It's also equipped with many modern
amenities that make cruising a breeze, like the six-speed automatic
transmission and modern air conditioning for example. This car is
done totally right!
EXTERIOR: Fresh and clean! Said to be all original metal with
exception of the cowl hood. The guy we bought this car from did
body work and paint professionally for 40 years and built this car
as a hobby. The body is absolutely 100% laser straight without a
ripple or wave in sight. All the panels are aligned well above
average, and the gaps are very consistent throughout. The long
heavy doors close very easily just like a new Mercedes. The Hugger
orange PPG paint was laid out beautifully then polished to a
smooth, slick, and glossy finish. It also has all new glass and
rubber seals. All the trim shines nicely and even the bumpers and
brackets are brand new. It's equipped with aftermarket LED
headlights and taillights. The builder also added front and rear
spoilers that really enhance the overall aesthetic. It's sitting on
17" Chrome Cragar SS 5 spoke mags that are wrapped in BFGoodrich
G-Force Comp 2 performance tires that are wider in the back.
INTERIOR: Everything looks new from top to bottom! I'm really
liking these Procar bucket seats. They are very comfortable with a
high back and headrests and provide tremendous support while
touring. They even have an adjustable lumbar and also recline and
have brand new 3-point seat belts too. It also has a very nice new
reproduction center console and an original style automatic
shifter. The rear seat has been reupholstered with matching
vinyl/stitching as the front seats and is equipped with seat belts
too. I'm also a big fan of the analog/digital Dakota gauges. They
have a very clean look, illuminate brightly and are easy to read.
There are currently 801 miles on the odometer since restoration.
The car has been completely rewired with a modern computer and has
an OBD plug under the dash. It has a modern A/C and heat climate
control panel by Vintage Air and also a retro stereo that are both
cleanly incorporated into the dashboard. It's equipped with an
aftermarket tilt column and an Eurosport steering wheel that has a
great grip to it. The door panels look fresh, and the driver side
has a remote mirror. The rearview mirror does look original and has
some foggy spots. The dash pad, headliner, sun visors, rear shelf,
and carpet all have been replaced and look fresh as well.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This Restomod has a modern LS3 swap! It's a 6.2
liter (376 cubic inch) fuel injected turnkey engine that generates
426 horsepower. It's equipped with air conditioning, power
steering, and a custom air intake. All the hoses and wires are
brand new and routed very nicely, and the battery is properly
secured. It has an upgraded aluminum radiator by Champion that has
dual electric fans to keep cool. The power brake master cylinder
and booster have been replaced and upgraded with a Willwood
proportioning valve. The underside of the hood, fender wells, and
firewall are all neatly painted satin black.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jambs are
painted Hugger orange and polished shiny just like the body. The
weather stripping was replaced. The trunk pan metal is all solid
and said to be original with a very neatly applied spatter finish
paint.
UNDERSIDE: A beautiful undercarriage with many new components! All
the steering and suspension components were rebuilt using fresh
sport suspension parts by Hotchkins. It's equipped with front and
rear sway bars that have new bushings as well. It has fresh
Willwood disc brakes at all four wheels with new lines and even the
emergency brake is hooked up. It's got a new full dual exhaust
system that has an x-pipe and tips that exit under the rear
valance. The gas tank and hanging straps have been replaced and the
fuel pump was upgraded to an external unit that has fresh braided
lines. Looking up at the LS3 engine everything looks clean and
correct. Same goes for the 6L80 6-speed automatic transmission,
it's nice and clean and has a fresh crossmember and mount as well.
That transfers power to a fresh looking 12 bolt rearend with neatly
applied black paint. Again, this car is said to be all original
metal so the floors are rust free and were nicely painted black
also.
SERVICE: Our shop completed a thorough inspection of this car and
tightened a couple cooling lines, replace the headlight switch
knob, installed a dome light bulb, repaired and charged the AC,
repaired the turn signal ground, lubed the suspension, and adjusted
the windows. She's ready to cruise anywhere with confidence!
This car is a real class act! Vibrant colors, luxury interior and
the reliability of an LS3 motor. It's at top of the line
restoration that was completed by an experienced professional. If
you're in the market for a split bumper Camaro that is turnkey with
excessive amounts of style and comfort; look no further!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
