For Sale: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS Pro Touring in Ft Worth, Texas

This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is pro-touring done right. Expertly finished, it offers a cutting edge fuel injected powerplant, all the creature comforts, and a big helping of respect for the original design. Arguably the best-looking Camaro ever built, it only gets better with the application of modern tech.

We don't know if this is a real SS, but that's probably not relevant anymore and if you cared about matching numbers and pedigrees, you wouldn't be drooling over this incredible Garnet Red hardtop. They've invested hundreds of hours in the restoration of the shell, and it more than measures up to the other cars you see at your local cruise nights and could almost be mistaken for a trailer queen. Great panel alignment, plenty of time spent blocking the bodywork, and crisply rendered black Z/28-style stripes on a cowl induction hood all add up to a Camaro that gets a lot of attention everywhere it goes. A ducktail spoiler, a blacked-out SS grille, and all the proper badges give it the look of a fresh restoration, not a modified car. But then again, the stance, the oversized rolling stock, and the instant ignition of the fuel injected V8 will always tip folks off that not everything is as it appears.

Inside, it replicates 1969 almost exactly, and that includes the bucket seats, which have been expertly reupholstered using factory-style materials that will make folks do a double-take. More restoration parts include the door panels, carpets, dash pad, and even the center console, which is woodgrained to add a little warmth to the all-black interior. A three-spoke wheel, custom shifter designed to match a manual gearbox (it manages a TH350 3-speed automatic), and factory instrument panel keep it looking stock, but there are custom Dakota Digital gauges behind the original gauge faces that light up when you turn the key. Very cool! Upgraded air conditioning which works with OEM parts to be effective, plus a custom AM/FM/cassette stereo in the dash where the factory radio used to be.

The heart of this car is a thumping LS3 V8 with 200 miles on it, and the all-aluminum engine does wonders for the early Camaro's handling. Expertly installed, it features as much factory hardware as possible to ensure reliability. They left it in its natural state so you can see all the hardware, which is part of the thrill when you open the hood to show it off, because there's nothing 1969 about what's under the hood. There's a big radiator with an electric fan up front, custom serpentine belt drive system for the accessories, and a new master cylinder for the power front disc brakes. The suspension is stock with a lowering job, so it has a wicked rake and stance, and with several hundred fewer pounds over the nose, this is one F-body that loves the corners. A custom Flowmaster exhaust system offers a remarkable sound behind the LS3 engine, and the 17-inch Torque Thrust wheels are traditional yet modern and wear staggered 225/50/17 front and 245/45/17 rear performance radials.

Beautifully built and fully sorted, this is the kind of Camaro you've always dreamed of building. Why not buy a turn-key car instead? It's got just a few hundred miles on the build, so it's ready to rock. Call now!
