Combine a killer-looking second generation Camaro exterior with serious power, great street manners and a comfortable driver's environment and you have the equation for this 1970 Chevrolet Camaro restomod. In all respects, it's at the top of its game and will greet its next lucky owner with the promise of countless fun-filled miles ahead, and a collection of build receipts to document the transition to its current stellar condition. With just a glance you can see a lot of cool... features that set this Chevy apart from the other muscle cars of its era: its silver metallic hue is in great shape, the pair of stripes that run the length of its hood and deck lid sport very sharp edges, the double deep split front grille combines with an aggressive hood scoop to hint at the power lurking in the engine bay, and its array of chrome that would stand out in any crowd. A few years before this '70 took its first bow, Chevy had already made quite an impression among performance car enthusiasts when they introduced the Camaro as their entrant in the ever-escalating muscle car war, and this specimen, with its wider stance and more aerodynamic profile, was their well-conceived reiteration. A thorough restoration brings it to the present in fine form - its finish ably matches all its flash and you'll find all the completing touches in place, including precise body panel alignment, sharp and vibrant badging and clear glass on all four sides. This is one capable-looking muscle car. The black vinyl interior has been left in largely original configuration, but sports a few welcome upgrades. Both the front buckets and rear bench seat have been refurbished with the stock Camaro look of the era and are very well-padded and comfortable, and the signature T-handle on the elevated B&M shifter beckons you to grab ahold and put this Chevy through its paces. Just beyond the stock steering wheel, you'll find the dash area is in great shape, with a full complement of AutoMeter analog gauges sitting in the instrument cluster and looking very much at home to provide accuracy beyond the reach of their original counterparts. A trio of vents stand by to bring cool air into the cabin, along with an AM/FM/CD system to attend to your audio needs. The trunk area in back is looking sharp, and with no lining on its floor, you can see how well-prepped and precisely aligned its components are -it couldn't have looked any cleaner than this when this Chevy first rolled off the assembly line. There's one seriously impressive engine compartment underneath the scooped hood, with a built fuel injected 6.2 liter LS-1 V8 sitting front and center to supply all the power you could want. The LS-1 has been bored out from its original specs and includes ProComp heads, Speed Pro pistons/rings, Howard Racing cam and a ton of other new parts (ask for the spec sheet), so it definitely delivers. It pairs with a 4-speed 4L60e transmission with an overdrive gear to keep highway speed RPMs nice and low. Despite all its muscle, this Camaro is no mere straight-line barbarian - it's got power disc brakes at all four corners for dependable, fade-resistant stops, and its precise power steering makes navigation nice and easy. This impressively restored second generation cuts quite an impressive figure as it patrols the roads on a set of Foose wheels - 18" in front and 20" in back, wrapped with Hankook Ventus Sport tires. This 1970 Chevrolet Camaro restomod ushered motoring excitement into a new decade when it was first introduced and now, still looking and running strong, it's ready to bring that same excitement to your garage.
