1969 Chevrolet Camaro LS1 Restomod

Description

This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is a restomod that pays tribute to the awesome Z/28. So you get a ton of upgraded features that includes a fuel-injected LS1 powerhouse, the control of a six-speed stick, four-wheel disc brakes, an upgraded suspension, and a comfy A/C interior. Plus, it has a terrific look of a shining vintage power coupe.

Fathom Green is a terrific factory color. It has the kind of dark appearance that will look black when you're out for a midnight cruise. But when the sunshine hits it, the green releases a much deeper presence that instantly grabs attention. That's especially true on such a well-restored example as this one that was completed only a little over 5k miles ago. The shiny paint works with super straight bodywork to offer a combination that truly stands out on arguably the most iconic body style for the Camaro. This is a restomod, and that means you're supposed to get out there and drive it, and in fact, this one looks best when out for a sunny Sunday drive. Because as the green starts to reveal its deeper tones, you'll also start to highlight a quality dark side lurking within this car. The clean blackout grille, chin spoiler, painted Z/28 stripes, tinted glass, and premium vinyl roof have a nice coordination that also adds to the powerful look. And speaking of a muscle car appearance, this has some of the best first-gen Camaro pieces, like the cowl hood, 15-inch Rally wheels, D80 rear spoiler, and Z/28 badging. And just to make sure everyone remembers your car, the chrome bumpers and full trim have a mirror-like shine that looks terrific against all that intimidating darkness.

You can instantly see there was plenty left in the restoration budget for the interior. This one gives you some of the best classic elements around, like the wide headrests and cool-looking green houndstooth cloth inserts for the upholstery. But you can also tell all of this vintage style has a modern freshness. That's what makes a restomod terrific. Classic Camaro fans may marvel at details like the logo door panels or working dome light. But everyone will want to go for a ride because it has comfortable cruiser upgrades like the AM/FM digital tuner, upgraded speakers, and cold-blowing air conditioning. And of course, the driver is a true priority. You have a sports steering wheel on a tilt column, power steering, and the full gauge package is now a crisp/clean Dakota Digital setup. And have you counted the gears on the Hurst shifter yet?

There are more upgrades in the engine bay, and it all has a fresh and tidy style that makes it easy to show off. At the center is a terrific LS1 V8. This has the classic 350ci/5.7-liter configuration, but its fuel injection and aluminum construction make it the choice for the modern generation of powerhouses. This mighty V8 inhales deeply with a cool air intake, and it exhales with a dignified authority thanks to Flowmaster mufflers feeding the dual exhaust. Don't just listen to the rumble of this one; follow the path in the undercarriage photos. There you'll spot more terrific upgrades like the tubular front A-arms, a rear Eibach sway bar, and four-wheel power disc brakes. Plus, the upgrade to a six-speed manual transmission means you have more gears and better ratios to enjoy this enhanced classic.

This is the restomod classic that was built to show, drive, and become the all-around star of your garage. Call today!!!
