For Sale: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro in Lithia Springs, Georgia

When it comes to collectible muscle cars, few can match the power and pizazz of a first-generation Camaro. GM's original pony car was built to compete with Ford's Mustang and has undergone six iterations in the last six decades. With 2024 being its final model year, the Camaro is set to see a rise in post-production value, which is why this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro 427 Baldwin Motion Tribute is even more special than ever. Fully repainted in its original Garnet Red, this car looks to have retained all of its original panels, even the quarters. A full-length black center stripe glides over the menacing cowl-induction hood, and over its D80-code front and rear spoilers, while SS and 427 badges signal to anyone and everyone that this car means business.

Inside, we find a custom black vinyl interior complete with new carpet and bucket seats that feature Morris Concepts three-point retractable seatbelts installed. An AM/FM/cassette player handles tunes, while the power-assisted three-spoke Rosewood wood-rimmed steering wheel adds a touch of contrast to the driver's side of this beast. A three-pod Auto Gage auxiliary gauge cluster provides all the necessary additional feedback, while the passenger-side expletive handle offers a bit of solace to any unsuspecting copilot unaware of the massive thrust this SS is capable of without a moment's notice.

Under the hood is where things begin to get really fun. While this car can already be considered special, having already rolled off the factory as a true SS350 X55, we now find a period-correct and date-coded 427 cubic-inch V-8. Fed by a Holley 750 CFM single four-barrel carb that routes fuel through a Bowtie 502/502 Hi-Rise intake manifold, this engine uses open chamber/large oval port heads donated from an LS-5 454 V-8. A set of Doug's D320 long tube headers send spent gasses through a 2.5-inch FlowMaster American Thunder exhaust to give this 427 a ferocious bark that can only come from a Golden Age big block.
