The suspension was upgraded to give the car the pro touring stance and performance every person dreams of. The car handles and drives unbelievably! Keep riding in style when it gets too hot outside, leave the top up and turn on the air conditioning! With power windows, locks, convertible top, front seats, and a tilt steering wheel you don’t have to work very hard to drive this car, you just have to sit back and look good!.
Every panel on the car lines up perfectly and is straight as a laser. I can’t put into words how great the engine and trans work together.
The car was driven to the Joliet Super Chevy Show and won 1st place in the 1969 Camaro Custom class. The car has won 1st place in every show it has been taken to.
There have been endless hours put into this car as you can see from the pictures. Over $150,000 was spent to make it this nice and perform the way it does. Everything under the hood is chrome or polished stainless steel, which makes it very easy to keep clean. There is so much more to this Camaro, please read the detailed lists on each facet of the restoration and feel free to ask any questions.!
