A restored 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is already pretty darn desirable. But when you can get this enduring icon with the perfect color combo, upgraded A/C interior, and a performance V8... well, now you know this one is irresistible. LeMans Blue just seems like the right hue to have on this iconic coupe. It's shared with the Corvette's pallet of the same era, and its name simply suggests that you have a faster car than everyone else. This is a more recent application of the factory-correct color, and so it has a nice luster in the sunlight. But honestly, the shine of the paint and the glow of the white dual SS stripe package might look even better cruising around at midnight. No matter what time of day you view this coupe, the light rolls off the body evenly thanks to an investment in a quality frame-off restoration that made sure the first-gen Camaro's Coke bottle curves remain straight and true. The bright work in '69 was not overly done from the factory, so enthusiasts appreciate the details on areas like the thin bumper, window trim, and rocker panels. What really make this coupe a standout are the aggressive features like the power bulge in the cowl hood and full-width D80 spoiler. Since this one has a nice upgrade under the hood, there's a cool set of large Foose 17-inch chrome wheel to preview this flair. The iconic deluxe houndstooth interior is beautifully finished with its correct button-top pattern. This is just one of many thoughtful upgrades and investments. For example, there are blue Chevy bow ties in the headrests and blue piping on the carpeting, which make a nice bridge to the exterior color. Plus, there are great upgrades for everyone, including an AM/FM/cassette stereo and ice-cold R134a air conditioning. The best features are reserved just for you. These are the perfect mixture of vintage and modern pieces, and the best example of this is where your hands go. Your left one gets an updated sports steering wheel for the best in grip, and your right one rests on the classic horseshoe shifter. It's set in a desirable center console that even has the quad auxiliary gauge package. That leaves plenty of room in front of you to focus on the large speedo and tach. But we know your favorite upgrade of the all is under the hood. The 358 cubic-inch V8 was a performance build by a NASCAR constructor. It includes go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock 650 CFM four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, 23-degree Bowtie steel cylinder heads, and a set of long tube headers that feed the thundering dual exhaust. Because there's only around 2,000 miles on the whole build, everything still looks fresh, clean, and undeniably powerful. This enhanced V8 is mated to a stout TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, and that feeds a Posi-traction rear end running a versatile 3.73 gear. And no matter if you're out for blacktop fun or just an easy cruise, features like the power steering, upgraded front disc brakes, and the grip of modern Kumho Ecsta Supra make this a great experience. Complete with restoration photos, this Camaro turns heads wherever it goes with its slick paint and ferocious growl. It has the right features to make sure you enjoy driving it, too. That's why we know this complete package is a hot deal that will be leaving us soon. Call now!
