1969 Chevrolet Camaro

There aren't many vintage cars that say high performance better than a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro. This particular LeMans Blue beauty features a healthy 350 V8 small block, an upgraded transmission, sizzling paint, great options, and a very comfortable white Houndstooth interior. If you've been searching for a clean 1st generation Camaro that runs great, looks awesome, and is daily-driver friendly, this may very well be your car.
The recently resprayed code 71 LeMans Blue on the classic Camaro shape is indeed this car's factory correct color, and why mess with a good thing? Has anybody ever complained about a blue Camaro? Never! Fortunately, the workmanship is quite good, so the shiny paint works with super straight bodywork to offer a combination that truly stands out and someone was sweating the details when it was going together. An SS hood with chrome louvers certainly helps, as does the front chin spoiler, and it's been treated to white hockey-stick stripes, one of three patterns available on early Camaros, and these particular stripes have been expertly applied with paint, not decals. The finish is of excellent driver quality and only shows minor imperfections, with a shine that turns heads everywhere it goes, further punctuated by the contrast provided from the white vinyl roof. Panel fit is quite good as well, with doors that close easily and a trunk lid spoiler that sits right and with those stripes stretching from nose to door, there's really no place for shoddy workmanship to hide. Nice chrome bumpers, including a set of rear bumper guards, look great against the blue paint and correct SS emblems have been installed in the usual locations.
Referring to the interior as being simply "refurbished" would do it a disservice - it's essentially new everywhere you look. The cloth accents on the front buckets and rear bench seat carry the houndstooth check pattern that was one of Chevy's most dynamic styling cues in its time and looks outright awesome over the expanse of fresh black carpeting below. Take your position in the driver's seat and you'll find a dash area in front of you that's also looking great, with working gauges in the instrument cluster and a straight, supple looking dash pad on top showing no cracks or oxidation. Fresh woodgrain accents have been applied to the center console (and the two-spoke steering wheel as well), which features a great looking and desirable horseshoe shifter, that manages the freshly built TH350 automatic transmission below. The factory A/C still blows cold R-12 air, and an AM radio is still in the dash where it should be, although a modern Sony AM/FM/CD /AUX head unit was neatly installed just below and it powers a kickin' stereo system that includes the two banging subwoofers in the trunk. And even with that box of woofers out back, the trunk is neatly finished and presents very well.
Power comes from a strong and reliable 350 cubic inch V8 that is believed to be the small block that was born in this Camaro. The engine bay is nicely detailed and features a few shiny bits, ranging from the air cleaner to the finned valve covers to the chrome engine braces. Up top an aluminum Edelbrock intake carries a matching Edelbrock 600CFM 4-barrel carburetor, an HEI system helps it crank fast, and ceramic-coated long-tube headers look and sound great. The small block starts right up with ease, it runs great like all small block Chevys, and you shouldn't be afraid to drive this one for many miles to come. Underneath, you'll find a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission augmented with a TCI torque convertor, a Flowmaster dual exhaust system, and a 10-bolt rear end with an upgraded differential cover. The finishing touch is a set of original style 15-inch Rally wheels wearing 205/60/15 front and 235/60/15 rear BFGoodrich T/A white-letter performance radials.
