A truly quality restoration always leaves plenty of clues and this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS Restomod Tribute carries loads of them. It's logged under 900 miles since it emerged from its build, where it not only received all the attention needed to bring its aesthetics to top form, but was also equipped with an impressive array of top tier mechanical components to make for an outstanding driving experience. This is just a flat out great looking... classic. Chevy hit a home run when they first introduced the Camaro just a couple of years before this '69 first saw the light of day - a big factor in its success was its rugged, muscular presence and this tastefully configured restomod takes full advantage by retaining a sort of "stock-plus" presence while adding just the right visual finishing touches to distinguish it further. It's dressed in black paint accented with broad gray stripes over its hood and deck lid and it really looks sharp - a session at the hands of a skilled detailer will elevate it to show quality. Appearing as if it's poised to strike on its show-stopping staggered aftermarket wheels, this vintage Chevy wears an air dam up front, a spoiler perched on its deck lid in back and its cowl hood serves notice that it's packing a serious powerplant in the engine compartment. New emblems are in place to call out this Camaro's top run inspiration and there's fresh lighting in both front and back. The featured interior would no doubt impress attendees on the local car show circuit. Just as with the exterior, it offers an outstanding take on vintage sensibilities, with some add-ons to make for a standout driving environment. The front buckets and rear bench seat wear well-fitted vinyl covers sporting contrasting gray suede inserts, with matching door panels to each side. One of the signature Super Sport styling cues - the horseshoe shifter- sits within easy reach on a clean center console, while farther forward the dash area is in stellar condition, with an array of functional factory gauges in its instrument cluster that are joined by a digital aftermarket speedometer and tach, with a flawless dash pad running across the top. A quality audio experience comes via a retro-look stereo that teams with aftermarket speakers in the rear deck and the cabin is kept nice and cool via an added climate control system. The trunk area is in solid shape, with a fresh rubber seal in place to keep the elements out. The 406 cubic inch V8 lurking beneath the cowl hood has plenty of power to propel this restomod with authority. It's well-dressed in a pair of flat black Chevy Centerbolt valve covers and matching air cleaner and has been armed with aftermarket aluminum Vortec heads, a Holley 4-barrel carb and an Edelbrock Performer polished intake manifold, as well as a hefty performance cam to add still more muscle and a nice, loping exhaust note. The well-equipped powerplant teams with a 4-speed automatic 700r4 transmission, so this muscle car cruises easily at highway speeds and when it's time to come to a stop, there are power disc brakes at all four corners that wear slotted and drilled rotors for excellent heat dissipation. Power steering makes this classic an easy navigator on its staggered Bonspeed forged billet wheels - 19" in front and 20" in back - while an aluminum radiator pairing with an electric cooling fan keeps temperatures under control. You won't often come across a restoration as well-executed as the one displayed by this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS Restomod Tribute - its visual impact is outstanding and its abundant power makes it a blast to drive.
