In terms of second-generation Camaros, he L34 SS396 is probably the one to own. This is a real-deal L34 with its original, umbers-matching big block, nd it has been comprehensively and professionally upgraded to make it one of the most potent resto-mods we've ever offered. Experts know that basic black wasn't available in 1970, ut it certainly looks spectacular on this car. The result of dozens of hours of painstaking labor on a very clean, riginal car, he shiny black finish is what you usually see on top-level show cars, hite SS stripes, cowl-induction hood, nd a small rear spoiler certainly help give this F-body an insanely predatory look, ut it's the paint that'll really get you noticed. Hand-buffed last July, t has the look that you've always hoped your black car would have. Other things like the chrome bumpers, S emblems, nd even the glass, re all unmarked and ready for show, hile the tri-bar headlights give it a modern, igh-tech look that works quite nicely with that slick black paint. The interior is all new and all spectacular. Everything was gutted, he steel was stripped bare and then sealed with POR-15, hen every square inch was lined with Dyna-Mat to keep things cool and quiet. The seats were stripped to bare frames, andblasted, ebuilt, nd then reupholstered using memory foam and fresh reproduction seat covers, nd there are new rubber-backed carpets and mats on the floor. The original gauges were all replaced with new OEM units, ith a trio of auxiliary gauges cleverly integrated into the center A/C vents, ut don't worry, he system still blows cold thanks to some clever secondary vents under the dash. The steering wheel, ash pad, nd door panels are also brand new and correct for this car, nd all the weather-stripping is new. A Sony AM/FM/CD stereo head unit fits neatly in the center of the dash and all the bulbs are now LEDs so you'll never have to disassemble the dash in search of a burned-out bulb. The attention to detail is simply astounding, ight down to the beautifully upholstered trunk, hich uses a custom embroidered carpet set and fiberglass panels to hide the Alpine amplifier, hich gives it a very clean, ncluttered look. In 1970, he L34 big block was the top dog and signaled the end of the muscle car era. Although it says 396 all over it, t's actually a 402, nd this is the original, umbers-matching block that's been punched .030 oversize and completely rebuilt. There's a 750 Holley up top, n HEI distributor for ignition, nd lots of chrome dress-up, ncluding the Edelbrock intake, alve covers, nd the accessories. The Vintage Air A/C system was installed recently and blows ice cold thanks to four big fans keeping the various coolers chilled. Backed by a Muncie 4-speed, ou don't have to worry about breakage, specially with a 12-bolt Posi out back filled with 3.73 gears. There are new bearings, eals, rakes, fresh clutch and flywheel, nd new QA1 adjustable shocks at all four corners. The underside is nicely finished and intentionally kept low-key, hich is just fine because those big Coys wheels with 225/40/18 front and 255/35/20 rear performance radials make quite a statement. An incredibly well-built car with receipts and a pedigree, his is the second-generation Camaro that will set the curve for all the others that follow. Call today!
