INTRODUCTION: Outstanding fit and finish on this genuine 1969
Camaro Pace Car! The trim tag confirms the Pace Car option, with
the Z11 code, Dover White paint and orange deluxe interior. It's
also a highly desirable Rally Sport - Super Sport big block
convertible! Rotisserie restored, with exceptional quality and
attention to detail throughout.
EXTERIOR: I tell you what, I'm very impressed! The body is
outstanding. It's laser straight, and I couldn't find even a pimple
of rust or any cracking. All the panels fit properly, and it
features a cowl induction hood, spoilers, and of course, the highly
desirable Rally Sport package with functioning hideaway headlights
and relocated reverse lights. The Dover White paint is polished
smooth and glossy, and even the orange stripes are smooth to the
touch. It looks like all the chrome and trim have been replaced,
and it's upgraded with LED taillights. The white power convertible
top is in excellent shape. The windshield was replaced, along with
the weatherstrips and seals. The official Pace Car decals are
properly installed on each door. It's rolling on a restored set of
14x7 Rally wheels with bright, shiny trim, wrapped in BFGoodrich
tires. The fit, finish, and overall presentation are
exceptional!
INTERIOR: Extremely neat and tidy, and it has a lot to offer! It
features the desirable deluxe interior with molded door panels,
houndstooth upholstery, and woodgrain trim across the dash. A
rosewood deluxe steering wheel is mounted on a tilt column. It also
has a center console with the iconic staple shifter. Upgraded with
a full set of RetroTech gauges, which I absolutely love, along with
a retro stereo. Everything looks fresh and practically new, from
the dash pad to the carpet, visors, mirror, seat belts, seat backs,
and headrests. The fit, finish, and overall presentation are
excellent. A beautifully restored interior loaded with desirable
features!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It's obvious this engine compartment was
completely disassembled and restored. Every component looks fresh,
correct, and properly detailed. It features a big block motor
stamped with the proper codes, stock exhaust manifolds, and
reproduction valve covers and air cleaner. The brackets, pulleys,
alternator, power steering pump, and master cylinder all look like
new. It has reproduction hoses and clamps, the correct-style fuel
filter and fuel lines, and neatly routed hoses. The wiring harness
was replaced, along with the vacuum controls for the hideaway
headlight doors. It does benefit from an MSD ignition system. This
is a completely restored engine compartment!
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and in the jamb, it's
painted slick and glossy white like the exterior. The decals, trunk
latch, weatherstrip, and trunk mat have been replaced. Inside, the
metal is rock solid with a nice spatter painted finish. It includes
a restored spare and new well liner. The convertible counterweights
are in place in the corners.
UNDERSIDE: Reportedly restored on a rotisserie, with the front
subframe and all components removed for a thorough restoration. The
steering and suspension were completely rebuilt, including ball
joints, shocks, and related components, with upgraded gas shocks.
The brake system was rebuilt with front disc brakes, replaced
lines, and a functional emergency brake assembly. It has a fresh
looking dual exhaust system that sounds great! The fuel system was
replaced, including the tank and lines. Looking up at the motor,
it's fresh Chevy orange with a chrome flywheel cover. The Turbo 400
automatic transmission features a finned aluminum, extra capacity
TCI pan, and a desirable 12-bolt rear end puts the power to the
pavement. The floors and all the metal surfaces are exceptionally
clean, dry, and neatly painted.
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: I'm very impressed! It's been a long time since I've
seen a '69 Camaro convertible this nice, let alone a Pace Car. Go
ahead, look at the others, I'm confident this one will be your
choice. It is exceptional!
