1969 Chevrolet Camaro - Pro Touring The Camaro first debuted by Chevrolet in 1966 for the 1967 model year. The intention was to compete directly with the Ford Mustang during the popular muscle car/pony car era. They had the Corvair but felt it would fail to keep up with Fords runaway success in the market. The were produced for 4 distinct generations before the name was dropped in 2002. That wasnt the end for the Camaro though because the name was revived for a concept car in 2009 that would go on to be the 5th generation. This clean 1969 Camaro was the last year for the 1st gen cars and has been very nicely restored in a pro touring style. It has been set up to handle anything you throw at it. The body is painted in a Metallic Blue paint that really pops out in the sun. The chrome and stainless trim has a nice shine and is all cleanly mounted in place. The car wears both a front and rear spoiler and a 2 inch cowl hood for that classic muscle car side profile. The glass is all in good condition throughout and is slightly tinted. All of the exterior lights are working properly with no issues. The gas filler on these cars was originally located behind the license plate but this one has been rerouted to fill via a custom chrome locking cap on the rear taillight panel. The car has a great stance and rides on 17 inch Billet Specialties wheels with Nitto tires. If the exterior wasnt enough to grab your attention just wait until you pop the hood. This classic Camaro is sporting a freshly built LS7 V8 motor that has less than 1,000 miles on it since being installed. It cranks out 700 horsepower and dyno sheets can be provided on request. The engine bay has a show ready appearance with chrome and billet components everywhere you look. The engine runs great and has been fitted with a FiTech EFI system.

The transmission is a 4L80E automatic with stall converter that transfers all that power back to the modified Ford 9 inch positraction rear end with Moser axles. Other very nice upgrades include the Detroit Speed 18 gallon fuel tank and the Optima Red top battery that has been relocated into the trunk in billet mounts. The interior has been entirely redone in Black and it is clear it has been very well maintained since completion. It has dual high back bucket seats with headrests up front and the upholstery throughout looks great. It has
