I Build these Camaros for the Love of a Muscle Car and the Joy of going to Work and Loving my Job...

If you look at Don Yenko or Baldwin-Motion...They didn’t do this to become Rich...They Just Loved what they did...:)


My All Aluminum ZL-1 427 Engine has "600" in Torque at “3100 RPM” (Look at the Dyno Sheet)

Runs on Pump Gas...Stays Nice and Cool at 195 on the Temp Gauge...

The Muscle Cars did "Real Well" at Barrett-Jackson and Mecum Auction this Year.

Barrett Prices were Very High!!!

Proving Muscle Cars are Still “Great Investments” and you can also have Fun with them. :)

A 1969 Black and Gold RS ZL-1 427Recreation Camaro like I build, bid to $80,000.00 and the Owner would Not lift his Reserve.

A Real 1969 ZL-1 sold for $400.000.00

The Owner of Mecum Auctions does have one of my Camaro's in his Collection


Please look at my Pictures of the Famous Fred Gibb, Dick Harrell 1969 ZL-1 Camaro Race Car.

It was the First ZL-1 delivered to Fred Gibb Chevrolet in 1969 and then turned into this Race Car.

It Beat the Famous "Sox & Martin Hemi Cuda" that had Dominated the Race Circuit!

The Fred Gibb ZL-1 also set a record of 9.63 seconds at 143 mph and also Won the Pro Stock World Championship.

Fred Gibb had to order 50 ZL-1s to be built to Qualify the Camaro to Race in NHRA.


There was always a Mystery about the ZL-1 Camaros. Not much Information was known.

In 1981 were it not for the Curiosity of "Bill Porterfield" and his Persistence in Finding Information on the 1969 ZL-1 Camaros...I believe the ZL-1 Camaro would have been Lost in History.

Bill Porterfield Contacted Key people from Vince Piggins at Chevrolet, to Fred Gibb Dealership that ordered the first 50 ZL-1 Camaro's.

Fred Gibb was key in Creating the ZL-1 Camaro!!! He knew a lot of information on these Special Camaro's.

Bill has acquired a Substantial amount of Engineering Documents concerning these Camaros and the ZL-1 Aluminum 427 engine's.

Bill Porterfield is also Credited for Finding a lot of Chevy Documents and Information from Chevy on these Rare 1969 ZL-1 Camaros.

The Public did not know much on these Rare ZL-1 427 Muscle Cars.

I got these Pictures for my Birthday from Bill Porterfield who owned this Very Special 69 ZL-1 Camaro Race Car.


A ZL-1 427 Camaro is like owning a "Z28 that is on Steroids"!!!

These cars are "Scary Fast" and if all that Power does not put a "Smile on Your Face" then you are Obviously Dead. :)

My Motors are from the Original ZL-1 tooling that was found in 1997

I have close to $20,000.00 in (My Special all Aluminum ZL-1 427 Engines) and my motors have Incredible Horse Power and Torque.

539 Pounds of Torque at 2700 RPM Can be Street Driven (Runs on Pump Gas) with an average Temp of 185 on the gauge. :)

Perfect Time for me to take Orders on Your Dream Muscle Car Camaro ..."The 1969 ZL-1 Camaro"

If you own a 2010 thru 2017 ZL-1 Camaro.....I can build you a 1969 ZL-1 Camaro to MatchYour New ZL-1 Camaro

The Old Camaro with the New Camaro Side By Side with the Same Colors and Same Options...Doesn't get much better than that. :)


Okay Guys...YOU saved your Money for the Barrett-Jackson Auction.

Why Spend "YOUR” Money on YOUR Dream Car that someone else has Already built to "Their Likes or Taste".

It's "YOUR MONEY", Let me build it "YOUR WAY" and Paint the Color YOU Always Wanted.

YOU Choose the Interior Color YOU Always Wanted!

You Love Houndstooth Great. You Hate Houndstooth, we go Deluxe Comfortweave or even Standard Interior.

You always wanted a 4 Speed so YOU can Melt The Tires!!!! Great... I will Build it!

Your Tired of Shifting. Then a Turbo 400 it is. You can Still Melt the Tires!! It's an Aluminum 427 ZL-1 Motor!!!!

You want Air Conditioning because you Live in AZ or CA.... Then "Vintage Air" Air Conditioning Gets Installed.

You want to Drive it on the Highway.... than 355 Gears gets installed.

You Want to "Smoke" the New Ford Mustang Cobra sitting next to You... then it's 410 Posi and Bye Bye Mustang!!!

It's YOUR Dream Car… Let me Build it “YOUR WAY”

There is a Real 1969 ZL-1 Camaro on E-Bay for sale.... item number 380288722726
This is a “Incredible Camaro” and is Worth More that the $400,000.00 that is already Bid!!!
Who Can afford this kind of Money.... But The "Rich and Famous"???
I Build ZL-1 Replicas so that “Normal Car Guys” can Live the same Dream as the "Rich and Famous" of Owning the “King of the Muscle Cars” The Legendary 1969 ZL-1 Camaro
The King of the Hill was the Legendary 426 Hemi Cuda of the Sox and Martin Race Team
Then along came (The 1969 ZL-1 Camaro) and Took the NHRA Crown in 1969
The ZL-1 Camaro Legend was Born!!!


”Live The Legend”

The Ultimate Dream Muscle Car!!!

(Please Look at My "Mirror Reflections" in my Paint Jobs)

My ZL-1 427 Motors at 3000 RPM are puting out 596 in Torque!!! You will get the Dyno Sheets.

2700 RPM is were you are Driving the Camaro the most. Low RPMs

That is "Seat of Your Pants" Torque!!!

The Lemans Blue with White Stripes on the Trailer is a Special ZL-1 with Dealer Installed Stripes.

There was a Original ZL-1 on E-Bay for $500,000.00 Item #200427775680

This ZL-1 (Does Not) have it’s Original Motor or any of the Original Drive Train.

It also is a “Plain Jane” with No Options…and did I say $500,000.00

I do respect that it is a Real ZL-1 but how many people do you know who can afford it??

That is why I Build these Replicas…People Can Afford my ZL-1s and not have to Higher an Armed Guard to Watch over it. :)

These Camaros were made to be Driven, also taken to Car Shows and to Bring back Your Younger Days of Cruising!!!

Not Stuck in a Collection Gathering Dust.

This Rare Muscle Car in this Auction is being built as a Correct Replica of a 1969 ZL-1 427 Camaro.

It will be as Close as you can Get to a Real ZL-1 with out Spending “$1 Million Dollars” for an Original 1969 ZL-1 Camaro.

Put this ZL-1 Replica Side by Side of an Original and it would be Hard to Tell the Difference. (Except My ZL-1 has More Horse Power and Torque)… and it will be more "Streetable"!


I have shown Pictures of past ZL-1 Camaros I have Built, so you can see the Detail I take in doing a Paint Job and building a Camaro the Correct Way.

I will Build it the way "You" would have Ordered a “Muscle Car” from GM Yourself back in 1969.

(You Have Always Wanted to Go “Back In Time” and Order a ZL-1 Camaro the way “You Wanted it.”)..... (Now You Can)


Primary Purpose of the ZL-1 427 Engine was to provide an All Out Race Motor to the General Public, with a Significant Weight Reduction compared to an All Iron 427 Motor.

The ZL-1 also had (Aluminum Heads and Intake) compared to Iron Heads and Intake.

So you can see that the "Weight Savings" was not just in the Block Alone.

Remember in the Race World, Every 2 Pounds Saved is like (Gaining 1 in Horse Power.)

The ZL-1 Aluminum Big Blocks Weight was the same as a "1969 Z28" Small Block, so the ZL-1 would Corner and Brake like a 1969 Z28.

The 1969 Z28 Dominated SCCA Racing that Year and Won the Title for 1968 and 1969.

Most of that had to do with the way the 1969 Z28 could Corner and Brake.

Your Normal Big Block Camaro was "Front End Heavy" for Cornering and Did Not Stop as well as the 1969 Z28 Camaro.

The ZL-1 Engine was a By-Product of Can–Am Racing Technology.

The ZL-1 Camaro Represented the "Best" of Chevrolets Research and Development.

For Years a Cloud of Secrecy and Lack of knowledge has surrounded these Incredible Muscle Cars.

The ZL-1 Camaro is the “Ultimate Factory Muscle Car” to come out of Chevrolet.

For Chevrolet Motor Division, the ZL-1 Camaro was their "Crown Jewel."

Even though Chevrolet was not in the business of Building Race Cars, (these ZL-1’s are the Epitome of Chevy’s Factory Race Cars.)

The Block is a new ZL-1 427 Block made from the (Original ZL-1 Molds). With the Correct ZL-1 Casting Number

The Original 1969 ZL-1 Mold was found in 1997 buy a Chevrolet Engineer when the Winters Foundry was getting rid of Molds they were not using any more.

He then Pushed Chevy to make these ZL-1 427Blocks again in "Limited Quantities."

This Same Engineer did the "Up Dating" on the New ZL-1 Blocks.

I have talked to this now Retired Engineer (Very Nice guy to talk to) and thanked him for bringing back these "Legendary ZL-1 427 Motors."

This ZL-1 Block will be a [Collectors Item] because of the “Limited” Quantities Made.

These new ZL-1 Blocks have "Today’s Technology in Aluminum" and the Oil and Water passages have been Increased in Size for Better Oiling and Cooling.

These new ZL-1 427 blocks are "By Far a Superior Block" than the 1969 ZL-1 Blocks.

My Engines are built like the1969 ZL-1 Black and Gold Camaroswhich weremore Streetable and used the List # 4346 780Holley Carburetorwith Choke off the COPOcast iron 427 Camaro and the COPO 427 Aluminum 3933163 Intake with(TR) Washer Style Bolts.

With GM Aluminum Heads, Dated Correct Exhaust Manifolds, Light Weight GM Fly Wheel, (Lets the Motor Rap Quicker) Correct Bell Housing, Correct Deep Grove Pulleys, Correct 8 Inch Balancer, Correct Dated Spark Plug Wires, Correct GM Hoses with Part Numbers, Correct Tower Clamps, Correct Spring Ring Battery Cables, Correct Curved Neck Radiator, Etc, Etc

The Engine will be a Complete Rebuild and Balanced at a High End Shop that does a lot of the RaceEngines for Colorado.

Break-in on the ZL-1 427 Motor will be done on a Dyno. I will have Dyno sheets.

TheEngine will beround 600hpand Tons of Torque and will be Very Street Able.

The Camaro will be taken down to a Bare Shell and Professionally Plastic Media Blasted by one of the Best Shops in Denver.

It will be Media Blasted Top to Bottom, Out Side to Inside, Including: Firewall, Floor Pans, Trunk Pans, Dash, Sub frame Rear Frame Rails. (See Pictures)

I can also make this a Vinyl Top car. Your Choice.

COPO ZL-1's have no Stripes and a Vinyl Top Camaro helps break up the Colors.

I Built a Hugger Orange RS ZL-1 Replica and it was just too much Orange.

Once I added the Black Vinyl Top, the Camaro Looked So Much Better.

Two “Special” ZL-1s were made for the "Show Car Circuit" to help Chevrolet Sales in 1969.

They were Black with Gold Z28 Strips.

I have had the ZL-1 Emblems Reproduced for this Replica I am Building.
