1969 Chevrolet Camaro for sale $119,900

The first thing that popped into our heads when we laid eyes on this well-built Camaro was: Some cars just drip presence. Now thats all well and good unless initial draw doesnt equal ultimate impression. For a car to be truly desirable that presence must be founded on quality mechanicals. Well we can certainly attest that this panther definitely has the merit to back up its presence thanks to a massaged LS3 a tough Tremec Magnum and a roster of updated ancillaries that includes names like Detroit Speed Truetrac and QA-1. So without further ado heres our latest world-class pro-tourer!

BODYWORK/TRIM

The beneficiary of a 7-year ground-up restoration that was completed in October of 2014 this sterling pony car is the product of filler-free all-original sheetmetal and A LOT of time spent sweating details. From its straight panels to its Nissan Silver Crystal Metallic 2-stage the cars rock-solid body displays immaculate craftsmanship that was completed by Caldwell Restoration of Soddy Daisy Tennessee. Not surprisingly every seam on this Main Street king has been aligned to better-than-factory fit.

That air marries fuel in rectangular-port L92-style heads which hide high-rate springs under color-keyed Corvette rail covers.

Speaking of breathing the custom-tuned mill funnels spent gases through coated Street andamp; Performance headers.
