1969 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Tribute Restomod

Description

With aggressive fuel-injected LS2 power, an overdrive transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, and an A/C interior, this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is both an RS/SS tribute and one of the best upgraded restomods you can get your hands on right now. Don't believe us? Just look underneath and see that this classic Camaro also has a fully independent suspension!

Dover white is the bright color making the right first impression. The trim tag tells us it's the factory-correct color for the car, and it looks great today because there have been solid investments in the car's restoration. Straight body panels and tight gaps help give the paint an excellent canvas. As a Super Sport tribute, this has been upgraded with classic performance pieces like the velocity stack trim hood, correct badges, and full-width rear spoiler. Plus, we all love 1969's sporty hockey stick SS stripe running the full length of the car. This was painted on for a smooth appearance, and a red pinstripe is used for added definition. The Rally Sport front end is a true icon on these first-generation Camaros, and the blacked-out grille gives it an aggressive face. This darkness continues with the brand-new black vinyl roof for a look that's both premium and aggressive. The coupe has all the right brightwork, including the form-hugging bumpers, good window trim, and upgraded billet tail light panels. But the largest polished piece to grab your attention will be the American racing wheels. They are staggered at 18/20 inches front/rear so that you get the classic design but a modern and intimidating stance.

The black and white two-tone interior has a clean style that's quite inviting. The seats are another great way this one shows off how it has been thoughtfully upgraded. The front buckets are newer high-back units with plenty of terrific bolstering. But those houndstooth cloth inserts are pure vintage Camaro cool. There are more classic style details like working courtesy lights, plenty of wood trim, and a center console with horseshoe shifter. Plus the dash now integrates upgrades like Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo with DVD flip-up screen and controls for R134a air conditioning. And of course, it's also built to be a better driver with a modern sports steering wheel, a tilt column, power steering, and a full AutoMeter Phantom gauge upgrade that includes the auxiliary readouts as well as the large speedo and tach.

There are more upgrades in the engine bay, and it all has a tidy style that makes it easy to show off. At the center is a terrific 6.0-liter LS2 V8. This modern fuel-injected powerhouse was properly installed, and it includes an upgraded air intake and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan. It fires up readily like a proper modern FI machine should, and you'll love the growl it makes right from the start. After all, long tube headers, big pipes, and an X-tube design is an ideal high-octane setup. The 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission knows how to handle this V8's power while still delivering overdrive comfort. As you look underneath, you're going to see a very different kind of classic Camaro. The suspension is a fully upgraded setup that includes a strong boxed arm front suspension, adjustable coilovers all-around, and Wilwood four-wheel power disc brakes with drilled & slotted rotors. And the upgraded rear end means you have a fully independent suspension! So this has the power and poise to literally run circles around most other 1960s machines.

This is an upgraded classic that knows how to deliver big power and added comfort while still respecting its history. So don't miss out, call today!
