If you set out to build the ultimate 1969 Camaroand#44; what would it look like? Awesome paint? Check. Big block? Oh heck yes! Four-wheel discs? Yep! Over-the-top build quality? But of course! Welland#44; forget about building it yourselfand#44; here it isand#44; already finished and ready to go with just a handful of test and tune miles on it. Torn downand#44; strippedand#44; and refinishedand#44; this car was rebuilt from the sheetmetal on up. Every single component that wasnt up to the builders very high standards went in the dumpster and was replaced with a fresh oneand#44; and the guys doing the work were obviously veryand#44; very good at their jobs. They didnt try to reinvent the wheeland#44; so all the original styling cues are thereand#44; including the cowl-induction hood and ducktail spoiler out backand#44; and the car definitely has a cleanand#44; no-nonsense look. Sizzling yellow paint went downand#44; then they carefully buffed the whole thing to make the clearcoat shine like a mirror. Forget stripesand#44; this Camaro doesnt need them to attract attentionand#44; and its the kind of car that you can spend a lot of time examining because every little detail is incredibly well done. It got an SS grilleand#44; bright chrome bumpersand#44; and a few SS badges on the nose and tailand#44; and who cares if its legitand#44; because this car has moved beyond chasing obscurity. This car is an apex predator on the street. The black interior has been given a fairly comprehensive makeoverand#44; starting with a set of custom leather high-back buckets seats. Theres also a matching console that was created just for this carand#44; and it extends into the back seat area where it neatly bisects the rear bench. Against the bright yellow paint it really works welland#44; but theres nothing in there that looks out of place. Everythings newand#44; of courseand#44; and they spent the long dollar on the best parts money could buy. Auto Meter gauges live in a custom dash cluster that looks almost OEM the way it fits into the stock instrument panel and a custom steering wheel that feels great in your hands. The shifter now manages a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission and the entertainment center has been upgraded to an Alpine AM/FM/CD setup with Rockford amplifiers and a set of 10-inch subwoofers. Even the trunk is beautifully finished with matching black carpetsand#44; custom side panelsand#44; and Plexiglas inserts so you can see them amps. Cool! The great thing about 69 Camaros is that big block motors slide right in. The slick-looking 496 cubic inch V8 is right at home in the F-body engine bayand#44; and as you can seeand#44; every single component is brand new. It looks totally custom under the hoodand#44; as it shouldand#44; and things like the air cleaner and valve covers were custom painted to match the bodywork. The block is a seasoned piece thats been bored .060 oversize and topped with a Holley 4-barrel carband#44; aluminum intakeand#44; oval port headsand#44; and MSD ignition system. A giant aluminum radiator uses electric fansand#44; and the plumbing and wiring were neatly hidden out of sight. The TH400 3-speed automatic transmission feeds a Ford 9-inch rear endand#44; which hangs on a set of coil-over shocks. The front suspension is A-arms with coil-overs and rack-and-pinion steeringand#44; so this car feels like anything but an antique. Baer disc brakes live at all four corners and the soundtrack is absolutely spectacular thanks to long-tube headers and oversized pipes. 18- and 20-inch Boze wheels give it attitudeand#44; and those giant rear meats are tucked up into the fenders just perfectly. Someone didnt hold back when they built this carand#44; and now you can own the nastiest street Camaro this side of a COPO. Call today! |
