Details: When you buy an early Chevrolet Camaroand#44; this 1969 RS is what you always hope youre getting. Huge horsepowerand#44; an awesome lookand#44; great colorsand#44; and a highly-functional interior. This is resto-mod done right.

Is there a better-looking piece of muscle than a 1969 Camaro in Marina Blue with RS hidden headlights? Obviouslyand#44; the guys who put this car together thought it was the right way to go and it paid off big time. The super straight bodywork is mandatory for that slick paintand#44; so they took their time on the blocking and sanding and made sure everything lined up right before spraying the paint. Adding a cowl-induction hood never hurts and the silver SS stripes were wrapped into the jambs for a custom effect. No modificationsand#44; just the monochromatic look of a blacked-out grilleand#44; the RS headlightsand#44; and those cool gill inserts in the quarters to make it look predatory. The overall look is eye-catching and despite the extroverted hardwareand#44; youre not going to mind the attention it generates. Nice chrome bumpers and oversized bumper guards look great against the bright blue paint and help contribute to the OEM vibe.

When youre building the ultimate Camaroand#44; you go with buckets and a console flanked by a pair of bucket seats. Recent blue seat covers look absolutely correctand#44; there are fresh carpets on the floorand#44; and the door panels are nicely detailed and crisply rendered. A 3-spoke steering wheel on a tilt steering column frames a very cool custom dash with new white-faced gauges tucked into the original square pods. The entertainment system offers AM/FM/CD/iPod capability and feeds speakers stashed throughout the interior. Vintage Air A/C with modern components and R134a refrigerant keeps the interior nice and cool even on the hottest daysand#44; and this car is a fantastic highway cruiser thanks to the 700R4 4-speed automatic transmissions deep overdrive. The trunk pan is in excellent condition and wears correct spatter-finish paint that continues the OEM look.

But this cars real appeal lives under the skinand#44; where it is decidedly non-stock. Starting with a 400 cubic inch V8and#44; they built one nasty resto-mod. The 400 is actually a small blockand#44; so it fits in the Camaros engine bay without modifications and delivers big block punch in a small block packageand#44; so handling remains sharp. It isnt exotic with a 4-barrel carburetor and long-tube headersand#44; but its incredibly effectiveand#44; giving this Camaro eyeball-flattening performance. The air cleaner is similar to an original cowl induction unit and chrome valve covers and Chevy Orange paint dress things up a bit. The 700R4 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission drives power to a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gears insideand#44; and that tall overdrive gear makes it highway-friendly yet wicked off the line. Power disc brakes are probably a good idea on a car that can generate this much speed this quicklyand#44; and the exhaust system is comprised of an X-pipeand#44; stainless Magnaflow mufflersand#44; and correct tips just behind the rear axle so the soundtrack is formidable. Big Billet Specialties wheels and 235/45/17 front and 275/40/17 rear performance radials do their best to hook it all up.

Theres a ton of cash tied up in this carand#44; never mind the work to put it all together. Incredible to look at but even more amazing to driveand#44; this is the Camaro youve always wished for. Call today!
