Sometimes its best to stick with what works. Why reinvent the wheel? The F-body was perfected decades agoand#44; and as this 1968 Camaro hardtop clearly showsand#44; doing it the right way delivers a car thats fastand#44; funand#44; and reliableand#44; and the early Camaro look will never go out of style. Finished in sizzling bright Matador Redand#44; this SS coupe needs to be fast because it certainly looks the part. It was originally code Z British Greenand#44; which was that years most subtle colorand#44; but the shade it now wears is a lot more effective in advertising its performance credentials. The work was done a few years agoand#44; so its no longer show qualityand#44; but theres no shame in great drivers that look good and work well. And honestlyand#44; few cars look better in bright colors than an early Camaroand#44; especially with those white SS stripes that wrap around the nose and trail back towards the rear of the car. A black SS grilleand#44; a few well-placed SS badgesand#44; and the ubiquitous Chevy performance details like the chin and ducktail spoilers give it a look that screams high performance in virtually every language. Well also admit that were suckers for the stock hood with the chrome velocity stack insertsand#44; which add detail that really dresses up the F-body shape. Camaro buckets with upgraded gray cloth seat covers were fitted insideand#44; flanking a big T-handle shifterand#44; so it has an all-business look. Theres a very mild resto-mod vibe insideand#44; with an Autogauge tach on the steering column and auxiliary gauges underneath for monitoring oil pressureand#44; amperageand#44; and coolant temperatures. Red carpets work well with the gray seat coversand#44; which are piped in burgundy vinyl in a way that looks very upscale and theyre a lot more comfortable now. Custom door panels were created to matchand#44; and wear complementary Heartbeat of America embroidery that looks great. For updated soundsand#44; they slid a Kenwood AM/FM/CD stereo head unit into the dashand#44; and under the deck lidand#44; youll find a neatly finished trunk with spatter paint and no signs of rot. Like most early Camarosand#44; this one carries reliable small block V8 powerand#44; a 350 cubic incher in this case. As with most of its siblingsand#44; its a strong runner with a fat torque curveand#44; all of which comes from the right choice of equipment. Intake duties are handled by a Holley carburetor and matching intake manifoldand#44; and its all lit up by a Mallory ignition system. Long tube headers and a snarky dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers gives it a potent growland#44; and youll note that it carries a heavy-duty TH350 3-speed automaticand#44; so its up for just about anything. Other upgrades include subframe connectors to reinforce the body tub and a set of traction bars on the 12-bolt rear end to plant the horsepower as effectively as possible. Nobody can claim this car wasnt built for combat. It also looks ready to rockand#44; with classic Torque Thrust wheels and fat BFG radials. If its attention you craveand#44; this Camaro delivers. Fortunatelyand#44; it also delivers a great driving experience and performance that will make you grin like an escaped convict. Call today! |
