1967 Chevrolet Camaro - Roadster Shop SPEC Chassis Pro Touring
Build
680 RWHP LS3/LSA Hybrid • Tremec 6-Speed • B5 Blue Metallic •
$300k+ Documented
This 1967 Camaro was built to be a true Pro Touring car-not a
cosmetic "restomod," and not a drag-only build. The goal was a
late-60s road race look with modern-day chassis engineering,
drivability, braking, and high-speed stability. The result is a
Camaro that feels tight and refined like a modern performance car,
but still delivers the raw engagement of a manual transmission,
high-horsepower LS power, and a properly sorted suspension.
Built over approximately 2.5 years, this Camaro features a Roadster
Shop SPEC Chassis, a professionally assembled Queen City Speed
LS3/LSA hybrid producing 680 horsepower at the rear wheels, and a
no-shortcuts approach to fabrication, wiring, plumbing, and finish
quality. The car has approximately 1,200 miles since completion and
includes a 6-inch documentation binder with receipts, spec sheets,
and over $300,000 in documented costs.
CHASSIS, STRUCTURE & BUILD QUALITY
Roadster Shop SPEC Chassis (Foundation of the Build)
This is not a factory subframe or modified stock structure-this
Camaro is built on a Roadster Shop SPEC Chassis, designed
specifically for first-generation Camaro applications.
Key chassis advantages:
Fully boxed frame designed to eliminate factory unibody flex
Powder-coated for durability and a clean underside presentation
Engineered to accept:
Modern wheel/tire widths
High-horsepower drivetrains
Aggressive suspension geometry
Integrated provisions for:
drivetrain mounting
front/rear suspension components
brake system mounting
fuel system routing
exhaust routing
Built to maintain proper body alignment and panel fit while
dramatically improving rigidity
RB Fabrications - Integration & Final Assembly
The chassis integration, fabrication work, and final assembly were
handled by RB Fabrications, with a strong emphasis on:
Symmetry and clean execution
Serviceability (components placed and routed to be maintained
correctly)
Hidden fasteners and clean mounting solutions
No exposed unfinished areas
Clean routing throughout:
wiring
plumbing
fuel lines
brake lines
exhaust
Sound Deadening / NVH Refinement
Despite the power level, the car was finished with a modern "tight"
feel:
Full Dynamat throughout the floors and doors
Helps reduce resonance, vibration, and harshness
Adds to the "solid modern car" sensation when driving
This Camaro is built to drive-not just to sit low and look
aggressive. The suspension geometry is designed around modern
radial grip and real-world handling.
Dialed-in characteristics:
Neutral cornering balance (not pushy or twitchy)
Predictable turn-in
High-speed stability
Strong braking stability
Controlled weight transfer under acceleration
Set up to hook under power, not just spin tires
This is a street and road-course focused setup, avoiding the
compromises of drag-only suspension tuning.
BRAKING SYSTEM (Matched to the Power)
BAER 4-Wheel Disc Brakes + Stainless Lines
With 680 RWHP on tap, braking matters-and this car has a serious
system:
BAER four-wheel disc brakes
Performance calipers and rotors sized appropriately for:
