INTRODUCTION: Frame off restoration! Rare opportunity; we haven't had a Butternut Yellow Camaro for sale since 2022 at the museum. Dare to be different? This showstopper will stand out from the crowd. What a beautiful combination of colors and features!

EXTERIOR: The Butternut Yellow paint has been applied with great attention to detail then polished to a slick and reflective finish. The black nose stripe has been properly painted on and really adds a nice pop. Looking down the side of the arrow straight body is satisfying with all its crisp lines and smooth contours. The panels have been painstakingly aligned with good consistent gaps that are right on the money. The vinyl top is fresh plus it has the optional dual side mirrors and chrome door moldings. Another option is the front and rear spoilers that greatly enhance the profile. And it even has the bumper guards. The fuzzy strips have been replaced on all the glass. Of course you can't ignore all the SS adornments, including the "ice cube trays" on the hood. The blacked out front grill is in spotless condition and is also equipped with the Rally Sport hideaway headlights. It's sitting pretty on a pair of 15" chrome American Racing Torque Thrust wheels that are wrapped in Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires.

INTERIOR: I absolutely love the low back bucket seats and center console with very practical aftermarket gauges to monitor the vitals. They have both been wonderfully refurbished and look fantastic. The rear seat was also recovered in matching vinyl. It has seat belts front and back. The rear shelf was replaced and it has fresh speaker grates too. The headliner is tight as a drum and has a working dome light. The dash pad is not cracked and the lower portion of the dash was beautifully repainted gloss black. The climate control unit is in great shape and the AM radio has been upgraded to a digital retro stereo. It is also equipped with the famous Tic Toc Tachometer. The deluxe three spoke steering wheel looks brand new plus the door panels and carpeting have been replaced. The interior has everything going for it.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This has a very healthy, freshly built 396 engine from a 69 Camaro. It has a hotter cam, aluminum intake, dual feed Holley carb with electric choke, MSD ignition, and long tube headers. It has been handsomely dressed up with a chrome air cleaner, chrome valve covers, chrome fender supports, plus a chrome alternator and bracket. It also has billet aluminum spark plug wire holders and pulleys. Other features include power steering and power brakes. It's very complete and has spring clamp battery cables, working horns, hood insulation and even the squirters are hooked up. The metal surfaces are clean and painted nicely. The cooling system looks proper and the wiring harness has been replaced.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jamb are painted smooth just like the exterior. Inside is all clean metal with a neatly applied spatter finish paint. It even has a reproduction jack sticker, fresh weatherstrip, plaid mat, full size spare tire, and rear seat insulation.

UNDERSIDE: This beauty has been body off frame restored. It appears that the suspension and steering was all redone. It has frame connectors welded front to back to keep the car from twisting. It also has air shocks in the rear. The fuel system was replaced including the tank and lines. The brake system was rebuilt and the e-brake cables hooked up. It is equipped with disc brakes up front plus the lines and hoses were replaced. When looking up at the engine you will see fresh Chevy Orange paint. The Turbo 400 automatic transmission looks to be recently serviced with a ribbed aluminum pan and fresh linkage too. A rebuilt drive shaft transfers the power to a nicely repainted 10 bolt rear end with 3.08 cruising gears. The dual exhaust system was totally redone and upgraded with long tube headers and Flowmaster mufflers. The floors are clean rust free steel with nicely applied satin black paint. The frame was also prepped and painted.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car we sell.

CONCLUSION: What's not to love? It looks, sounds, and performs amazing! Not born an RS-SS big block but this is just how I like them. Nice enough to be extremely proud and catch a bunch of compliments, but not a trailer queen that will give you a coronary every time someone breathes on it. Get in turn the key and have some fun. What a great way to enjoy life!
