INTRODUCTION: This Camaro is a knockout! Finished in very rare,
special order Corvette Bronze, indicated by the special paint code
on the trim tag, it has been treated to a meticulous frame off
restoration. The exceptional fit, finish and attention to detail
make this one rise above most others!
EXTERIOR: The fit and finish on this Camaro is outstanding, but
what really sets it apart is the special order Corvette Bronze
paint, indicated by the two dashes on the trim tag. The body fits
beautifully and is straight from the rockers to the roof. It is
clean and impressive throughout, with a cowl hood and spoilers
adding the right amount of muscle. The metallic is laid out evenly
and the finish is polished like a mirror. Further enhanced with
hockey stick stripes and blacked out tail panel. It appears all of
the chrome and trim has been replaced, including the correct
antenna. All of the weatherstrips were replaced, along with the
front and rear glass, while the remaining glass is tinted. It sits
proud on a set of 15x8 Rally wheels with all new shiny trim,
wrapped in BFGoodrich tires.
INTERIOR: The Deluxe interior is immaculate and extremely tidy
throughout. The dash features the factory gauge package, including
the tachometer and the additional gauges mounted in the console. It
has the correct horseshoe shifter, upgraded with an overdrive
indicator for the automatic overdrive transmission. The carpets are
fresh and fit beautifully. The seats have been recushioned and
reupholstered, the seat backs and headrests were replaced, and the
driver's seat rides on extended tracks to comfortably accommodate
taller drivers. The molded door panels and window cranks were
replaced, while the dash pad, headliner, visors, mirror and
reproduction steering wheel all look like new. It even retains a
factory AM-FM radio, correct GM seat belts and an owner's manual in
the glove box!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This is a very stout 350 making approximately
370 horsepower. It's a crate motor with 4-bolt mains and a healthy
cam, topped with an Edelbrock aluminum intake and carburetor with
electric choke. An electronic ignition system provides reliable
spark. It presents exceptionally well throughout, including the
brackets, pulleys, valve covers and air cleaner. It features power
steering and power brakes with a cadmium plated booster. The
alternator looks fresh, and the shroud, horns and windshield
squirters are all properly installed and hooked up. The surrounding
metal surfaces are clean and neatly painted, making this a very
tidy and impressive engine compartment.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Open the trunk and the quality continues. The
underside of the trunk lid and the jamb are painted just as slick
and glossy as the exterior, complete with reproduction decal and a
replaced weatherstrip. Inside is very clean, solid metal with a
neatly applied factory style spatter finish and an excellent
fitting reproduction trunk mat.
UNDERSIDE: This Camaro was treated to a body off restoration, and
underneath it is very tidy and proper. The front subframe and
control arms were thoroughly prepped and painted, while all of the
steering and suspension has been completely rebuilt or replaced. It
has a factory type dual exhaust system with the transverse muffler
and polished tips. The brake system has been gone through with
discs in front, drums in back, replaced lines and a working e-brake
assembly. The fuel system was also replaced, including the tank and
lines. Looking up at the motor, it is spotless Chevy orange and
even the starter looks fresh. The transmission was upgraded to a
700R4 4-speed automatic with overdrive, making it much more
enjoyable at highway speeds. A new driveshaft leads back to the
3.31 12 bolt posi rear end. Most importantly, the original floors
are completely solid and clean.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and our reputation. Every
vehicle goes through our service department where it is inspected,
test driven, and we address the essentials before offering it for
sale.
CONCLUSION:This Camaro comes from a local collector who brings us
really nice cars, and this is the nicest one yet! Take it from me,
I look at thousands of cars, not just Camaros, and this one is
exceptional. The meticulous frame off restoration, outstanding fit
and finish, and rare special order Corvette Bronze paint put this
one in a league of its own.
