The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS is the forever dream car. They have, and always will be sought after, and this example proves why. Big block power, modified in the right places, and an undeniably intimidating appearance that draws in crowds while scaring away lesser cars. This restored example is perfect for getting in anytime, firing up the big V8, and being noticed in style!The level of this Camaro's appeal is black and white, literally. White paint is a much more subtle and sophisticated color than the Daytona Yellow or Hugger Orange. Don't get us wrong, those are iconic and amazing, but they are not for everyone. The dark lines in a '69 are accented on the fenders and quarter panels with white like no other color. The color known for its tidiness is exactly right for this car because of just how smooth the panels are and the how uniform the gaps look. There has been some serious care in this restoration. Like a brute in a finely tailored tuxedo, this one wears black SS style stripes that coordinate nicely with the blacked out SS grille, black tail panel, and black rear fender accents. Plenty more aggression is seen in elements like the font air damn, super scoop cowl induction hood, and the D80 rear spoiler. Even a well-dressed man can use some jewelry, and you see that in items like the mirror shine of the bumpers, complete trim, and the large 18-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels that everyone talks about.More of the sophisticated black is seen in the nice clean bucket seat interior. Everything inside feels fresh, crisp, and dark like a new black suit. But breaking up this darkness are some nice right touches on everything from the door panels to the three-spoke steering wheel. You get the dual pod gauge setup with the speedometer and tachometer directly in from, but we already know that's not your favorite part. This a desirable center console car that not only contains the Hurst shifter, but also the iconic quad gauge pack. And for those few times that the sweet rumble from the dual exhaust isn't enough, there's an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo.We already told you there was serious big block power under the hood, but we bet you didn't think it looked this good. The 396 cubic-inch V8 is a period-correct Chevy powerplant that has been recently serviced and dressed for show duty. This includes the correct bright air cleaner and valve coves; there's bold Chevy orange on the block; and all the belts, wires, and hoses are nice and tidy. It fires up easily and has the unmistakable growl of a beastly big block as it comes to life. You truly have total control over the monster motor thanks to the four-speed manual transmission, and everything reliably gets to the ground via stout 12-bolt rear end. Plus, holding the road is easy with features like power steering, front disc brakes, and the modern grip of Nankang Ultra Sport tires.This restored '69 has the great balance of a sophisticated look and a wicked powerplant. It's forever in demand, but only available once. Call now!!
