Beautifully built, awesomely powerful, and amazingly fresh - this 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS is the perfect mix of vintage and custom to give you an iconic first-generation coupe with all the upgrades you love, including an A/C interior. While the hidden headlight RS model already makes this one ultra-desirable, take some time to go over the whole body. This coupe really gives you the best of both worlds. It embraces the clean lines that came on the inaugural year for this icon. In fact, you can really tell there was time and care in keeping the panels straight. The factory-correct Marina Blue has a nice luster from a modern clear coat respray in 2013. Plus, all the bright work shines like mirrors from the wraparound bumpers, to the intricate window trim. But more than just look like a well preserved/restored '67 there are some hints at the upgrades within. The aggressive cowl hood came from later in the generation, and the dual stipes and full-length rear spoiler are great sporty additions. Plus, the upgrade to 18-inch Billet Specialties wheels to clue people in on the car's performance secret. The interior continues the car's them of a mix of nicely preserved and nicely upgraded elements. For example, the factory-correct blue bucket seats look great against the coordinating blue exterior hue. The door panels, carpeting, and center console make this feel as deep and blue as an ocean. This one has all the best features for the driver like the large tach and factory auxiliary gauge trio. Plus, the upgrades are tastefully added. The AM/FM stereo with aux input and modern R134a air conditioning were so expertly integrated, that you'll almost swear the factory installed them. They even wrapped the grip of the Billet Specialties steering wheel to make sure it coordinated with this total package. Under the hood is where this one completely deviates from the factory presentation. After all, Chevy never made the engine bay look this good. The motor was completed only a few months ago. You can see there was a large investment in the smooth painted inner fenders, all the upgraded shiny components, and the overall attention to a tidy presentation. So you know this engine could win awards all on its own. When you look beyond the style, you'll find the substance of a stroker V8 that's so new, there's barely 10 miles on it. This fresh 355 cubic-inch motor has been fortified and enhanced with flat top pistons, Corvette fuelie heads, mild cam, MSD ignition, Optima battery, Holley aluminum intake, and a Holley four-barrel carburetor. This performance motor fires up with a wicked growl from the dual exhaust. Don't just listen to it; follow its path in the undercarriage photos. The amazing level of cleanliness under this one instantly lets you see how thorough the restoration was. More than just beautiful, this is a true driver with features like power steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, upgraded radiator, and drilled & slotted four-wheel disc brakes. Complete with restoration photos, this Camaro was originally built by a professional restoration shop for a family member. That means it's the kind of thorough and thoughtful build you've always wanted. Don't miss out, call today!
