Vehicle Description

INTRODUCTION: Is this a Ferrari or a Camaro we're looking at? This is one high class Camaro! The combination of brilliant red paint, rich tan leather interior, and an engine compartment that looks like it belongs in a jewelry store gives this car an upscale presence rarely found in a muscle car. But don't mistake luxury for weakness. Beneath the polished presentation is a performance built 383 stroker, upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and overdrive transmission that allow this Camaro to flex its muscles whenever called upon.

EXTERIOR: Wow, this Camaro is a slick looking machine! The body is laser straight, with excellent fit and finish throughout. The bright red paint has been polished to a glass like shine that highlights every curve and body line. A steel cowl hood, a front and rear spoiler give it an aggressive muscle car stance, while deleting the vinyl top keeps the look sleek and sporty. The chrome and trim are bright and straight, complementing the paint beautifully. Did you notice the bowtie marker lights, and the trim on top of the doors are optional. The windshield has been replaced, along with the weatherstrips. Modern LED lighting provides improved visibility while remaining tastefully integrated into the classic design. It's sitting just right on a set of polished 17-inch Billet Specialties wheels wrapped in performance tires, with a wider stance in the rear that gives it the perfect muscle car look.

INTERIOR: What a first class interior! Wall to wall tan leather really complements the red exterior. It features reclining sport seats with headrests, and a custom made center console extends all the way to the back, effectively turning the rear seats into individual buckets as well. Down on the floor, you'll find plush carpeting with Camaro embroidered floor mats and red seat belts that add a nice contrast. The dash has been fully restored and upgraded with ProComp gauges and a leather wrapped steering wheel mounted on a tilt column. The console is home to the Alpine Bluetooth stereo unit, Vintage Air controls, a Lokar shifter with a digital gear indicator, and two convenient storage compartments. Overhead, a custom one piece headliner has been upholstered to match the rest of the interior. It's a very well executed, professionally finished cabin that blends comfort, style, and modern upgrades.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Open the hood and there's an immediate wow factor! This engine bay is filled with polished mechanical jewelry and detailed to a very high standard. While it's beautiful to look at, there's nothing tame about the way it sounds. Fire it up and the performance built 383 stroker announces itself with an aggressive growl. At the heart of it all is a stout 383 stroker equipped with aluminum heads, a highly polished Edelbrock EnduraShine intake, and a dual feed Holley carburetor supplied by premium lines and fittings. An MSD ignition system provides the spark, while a set of coated headers helps this small block breathe and deliver impressive performance. The engine is dressed to impress with matching polished valve covers and air cleaner. Up front, a March Performance runner system with billet brackets and serpentine pulleys drives the accessories, including a polished mini a/c compressor, polished alternator, and modern power steering system. The power brake components have also been chromed for a show quality appearance. Cooling is handled by a large aluminum radiator and electric fan. The firewall and inner fenders have been smoothed and finished in glossy red paint, creating a clean backdrop for the highly detailed engine. Completing the presentation are a set of sharp looking billet hood hinges and matching billet fender supports. It's an engine compartment is guaranteed to draw a crowd whenever the hood is raised.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Even the trunk is a showpiece! Under the deck lid is a custom upholstered panel featuring embossed SS emblems. Inside has been completely boxed and upholstered with a neatly carpeted floor, continuing the high quality custom theme. The trunk also serves as a showcase for part of the upgraded sound system. Prominently displayed are two large subwoofers and an amplifier, providing serious audio performance.

UNDERSIDE: The components were all removed during the build, allowing the clean metal floorboards to be refinished in glossy red paint. The steering and suspension systems have been completely rebuilt and upgraded for improved handling and drivability. Up front, it features tubular control arms, adjustable coilover gas shocks, and polyurethane bushings. Frame connectors tie the chassis together from front to rear, adding strength and rigidity. In back, it is equipped with lowering springs, polyurethane bushings, and gas shocks. The brake system has been completely replaced and upgraded with drilled and slotted disc brakes at all four wheels. The fuel system has also been replaced, ensuring reliable performance. A great sounding dual exhaust system with stainless steel MagnaFlow mufflers delivers the perfect muscle car soundtrack. Looking up at the engine, you'll find an anodized oil pan and a high torque starter. The 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission is dressed with a chrome pan, and a rebuilt driveshaft transfers power to the 12-bolt rear end equipped with 3.73 posi gears and a heavy duty girdle cover. It's clean, upgraded, and detailed underneath!
