For Sale: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro in Bradington, Florida

Vehicle Description

1969 Chevrolet Camaro Pro Street Custom �€" 383 Stroker, 12-Bolt Rear, Air Conditioning Why This Car Is Special The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is widely considered the high-water mark of the first-generation F-body platform. Chevrolet sold 243,085 Camaros that model year, making it the best-selling year of the first generation, and the styling that designers Bill Mitchell and Henry Haga signed off on has never really gone out of fashion. The longer nose, wider stance, and more aggressive roofline the 1969 received over the 1967�€"68 cars gave it a presence the earlier cars simply didn't have. It was also the final year of that original body style �€" GM stretched the tooling one extra year before the second-generation car arrived �€" which means 1969 was both the peak and the finale of a design era. This particular 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is not a preservation car or a numbers-matching restoration. It's a purpose-built pro street custom that was built to be driven hard and look the part doing it. The builder replaced the original drivetrain with a GM 383 cubic inch stroker V8, upgraded the rear axle to a Moser 12-bolt, added power disc brakes, power steering, and air conditioning, and finished the body in a vivid custom blue with checkered graphics. The result is a 1969 Camaro that combines the most desirable body style in the first-generation lineup with a drivetrain that significantly outperforms anything Chevrolet offered at the dealership in 1969. The VIN on this car decodes to a Norwood, Ohio-assembled 1969 Chevrolet Camaro sport coupe, which is consistent with the body's straight, well-fitting panels and the solid underlying structure this build is based on. Features List - GM 383 cubic inch stroker V8 - Holley Demon carburetor - Aluminum intake manifold - Chrome valve covers - Open element performance air cleaner - Aluminum radiator - Painted and detailed engine compartment - Automatic transmission - Moser 12-bolt rear axle - Power front disc brakes - Power steering - Air conditioning - Dual exhaust system - Cowl induction hood - Front and rear spoilers - Custom bright blue paint with checkered graphics - Aftermarket 5-spoke chrome wheels - Black sidewall tires - High-back black racing seats with headrests - Matching factory rear seat and door panels - Black vinyl interior - Black carpet - Console with wood grain trim and automatic shifter - Factory dash with custom white-face performance gauges - Black Grant GT steering wheel - Radio Mechanical The engine in this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is a GM 383 stroker, built by combining a small block Chevy block with a longer-stroke crankshaft to displace 383 cubic inches �€" more than the largest small block Chevrolet ever put in a production Camaro. The 383 stroker is one of the most proven combinations in the custom car world, and for good reason. When properly built, it produces torque across a broad RPM range, which suits street driving far better than a high-revving race engine. This one is topped with a Holley Demon carburetor and an aluminum intake manifold, both of which reduce weight compared to cast iron while improving airflow and throttle response. Chrome valve covers and an open element air cleaner keep the engine bay consistent with the car's pro street presentation, and the entire compartment has been painted and detailed to a show-quality standard. Behind the engine sits an automatic transmission, which pairs well with the torque characteristics of the 383 and makes the car genuinely easy to drive in traffic. The Moser 12-bolt rear axle is a significant upgrade �€" Moser Engineering is one of the most respected names in aftermarket rear axle assembly, and their 12-bolt units are built to handle substantially more power than a stock Camaro rear would ever see. The factory 12-bolt was already the stronger of the two axle configurations Chevrolet used in first-generation Camaros, so using a Moser-built version of that same housing architecture is the right call for
