INTRODUCTION: This Camaro is a professionally built custom that
received an incredible amount of fabrication and detail work.
Replicating this car today would cost a fortune! The stunning color
combination, aggressive stance, and staggered wheels give it a look
that stops people in their tracks, while the LS-powered drivetrain,
overdrive transmission, and fully upgraded chassis deliver the
performance to back it up. It's the perfect blend of show quality
style, modern comfort, and muscle car attitude.
EXTERIOR: It is absolutely slick and beautifully executed. The body
has been extensively massaged to achieve a laser straight finish
with a smooth, modern appearance. Nearly every unnecessary
distraction was eliminated, including the side marker lights,
moldings, emblems, antenna, and even the front bumper. Flush
mounted Kindig-it door handles further clean up the profile, while
a cowl induction hood and rear spoiler add just the right amount of
muscle car attitude. Up front, the Rally Sport nose has electric
headlight doors along with LED headlights and running lights. LED
taillights continue the contemporary theme in the rear along with a
relocated fuel filler. The convertible top is a rich black cloth,
while the window moldings have been blacked out along with the
smooth rear bumper. The stance is exactly what a pro touring Camaro
should have. It's rolling on staggered American Racing wheels, 18
inches up front and extra wide 20s in the rear, all wrapped in high
performance tires that fill the wheel wells perfectly. The result
is a Camaro that looks aggressive, refined, and custom from every
angle.
INTERIOR: Dang, does this interior pop! This is a complete custom
creation, and there isn't a single thing inside that resembles a
stock 1967 Camaro. Most surfaces are wrapped in rich red genuine
leather, creating a bold, high end look that immediately grabs your
attention. Starting at the front, the dashboard is a one off
fabricated design upholstered in leather with perforated openings
for the defroster vents. A Dakota Digital gauge system keeps the
driver informed, while a touchscreen stereo powers custom kick
panel speakers and additional speakers in the rear. A custom
fabricated center console runs the full length of the interior,
housing electronic climate controls, cup holders, and separating
four exceptionally comfortable sport seats. The result is
essentially a four bucket seat interior that feels more like a
modern grand touring car than a classic muscle car. Plush carpeting
covers the floor and is protected by matching leather floor mats.
The custom contoured door panels are wrapped in leather and fitted
with billet handles, while a Billet Specialties tilt steering
column completes the driver's environment. To support all the
modern features, the car has been completely rewired, making this
interior as functional as it is stunning.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine compartment is every bit as
impressive as the rest of the build. Power comes from an all
aluminum LS1 V8 producing approximately 325 horsepower, delivering
modern reliability, efficiency, and performance. It's dressed up
with Chevrolet script valve covers for a classic appearance, while
coated long tube headers help it breathe and sound great. A black
billet front runner accessory drive system with serpentine pulleys,
compact A/C compressor, modern alternator, and power steering gives
the engine bay a clean, contemporary look. Additional upgrades
include a Wilwood master cylinder, custom cold air intake, aluminum
water pump, and a large aluminum radiator equipped with stainless
steel hoses, an electric fan, and overflow reservoir to keep
temperatures under control. The attention to detail is outstanding,
with the firewall, inner fender panels, front filler panel, all
smoothed and painted in a glossy finish. Black billet hood hinges
provide the perfect finishing touch.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The trunk is finished nicely and provides a
striking pop of red. The underside of the trunk lid is upholstered,
while the compartment itself is boxed and trimmed in matching red
leather with a plush red carpet lining the floor. The jamb has been
smoothed for a custom appearance, a fresh weatherstrip seals
everything properly.
UNDERSIDE: The undercarriage is every bit as impressive as the rest
of the car, featuring a complete Checkered Racing performance front
end including a custom subframe, tubular control arms, QA1
adjustable coilover gas shocks, and rack and pinion steering for
precise handling. In back, the SpeedTech Torque Arm suspension
includes a center torque arm, tubular trailing arms, adjustable
coilover shocks, a panhard bar, and frame reinforcements to put the
power down with confidence. Wilwood drilled and slotted disc brakes
are found at all four corners. The fuel system has been upgraded to
support fuel injection, and the dual exhaust with chambered
mufflers and turndown tips delivers an aggressive muscle car sound.
Looking up at the drivetrain, you'll find a clean aluminum oil pan,
high torque starter, and a 4L60E overdrive automatic transmission.
A Ford 9-l inch rear end with 4.10 posi handles the power. While
the floors have been restored and finished with a durable chip
guard coating for long lasting protection and a clean
appearance.

CONCLUSION: This Camaro is a true one of a kind custom that
received an incredible amount of fabrication and detail work. From
its sleek body and stunning interior to the LS powertrain and
upgraded chassis, it was built to impress. While there are a few
minor imperfections from being enjoyed about 800 miles, it remains
a real showpiece that would cost a fortune to duplicate today.
