Alluring Camaro Resto Mod 427 V8 4-speed 12-bolt 3.73 PS PB Houndstooth

Start talking muscle cars and the first-generation Camaro is almost always directly referenced. Offered in trim levels ranging from stripped economy champ to ferocious pavement prowler, Chevrolet produced F1s that were capable of satisfying nearly every buyer and every wallet. That legacy of universal appeal has continued throughout the last 50 years, giving fans and aficionados the parts and inspiration to create their own unique hot rods. Take this alluring resto-mod for example. Backing 427 cubic inches of pumped and polished big block with a tough Richmond 4-speed and modern athletics, this tastefully modified Chevy turns a traditionally appealing platform into a head-turning super star. Ready to hit the streets in a choice muscle car? Check out this sweet panther!

SUPER CLEAN

The beneficiary of a detailed, ground-up restoration that was completed sometime in the not too distant past, this slick Camaro is the product of A LOT of time spent sweating details. A series of solid body panels displays good fit and great finish. Silky two-stage seals crisp reflections under custom gray and red Hockey Stripes. And the result is one very well done pavement scorcher that'll turn heads at whatever event it rolls up and rocks!

At the front of the car's glowing pigment, a gray, 1969-exclusive grille hangs color-keyed “SS427” badging between traditional headlights, traditional parking lamps and a plated bumper that reflects a gray chin spoiler. At the top of that grille, a shaved header leads the eye to a mild Cowl Induction Hood, which looks great in front of satin wipers and bright window frames. A factory driver's mirror reflects tinted glass above standard rocker guards, factory door handles and ornate marker lamps. And at the back of the car, a second plated bumper traces a gray valance, which centers a second “SS427” emblem between a short spoiler, segmented taillights and polished exhaust tips.

SUPER STRONG

When you're looking to make a statement with a hopped up muscle car, installing one of GM's many fantastic big blocks is always a great start. Impressive in both sight and sound, this Chevy's massaged 427 kicks off with a smooth air cleaner, which drops breeze through an electronically choked 4-barrel that's paired with a small pressure gauge and polished fuel lines. That octane surfs a painted Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, which floods tough cast iron heads that hoist polished breathers on polished valve covers. Spark is provided by a hot HEI distributor, which sequences fire through loomed Taylor Spiro Pro plug wires. Spent gases roll through coated shorty headers. At the front of those tubes, flashy serpentine components spin a polished alternator and a polished power steering pump. Cooling comes courtesy of a massive Champion radiator that's outfitted with a tasteful closeout and a large puller fan. And the Chevy Orange mill looks great inside a traditional, Satin Black frame.

SUPER FUN

Pose this panther on a lift and you'll find solid, Satin Black floors that provide a stellar backdrop for a roster of proven components. A tough Richmond Super T10 4-speed twists power to a trusty 12-bolt axle that's finished with fun, 3.73 gears. The car's fully rebuilt suspension is led by a modern, Mustang II-style front-clip that's built with tubular control arms and QA-1 coil-overs. Turns come courtesy of power rack-and-pinion steering. Power-assisted stops are the product of two big calipers, two big drums and two drilled and slotted rotors. Charred dinosaurs float into large stainless tubes, which hang an X-shaped Pypes crossover in front of rowdy Pypes Race Pro mufflers. And torque transitions to pavement through handsome American Racing Salt Flat Specials, which wear 225/55ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force redlines.

SUPER COOL

Inside this cool F1 you'll find a fully restored White Houndstooth interior that's one of the most stylish cockpits to ever roll out of a GM design studio! Rebuilt front bucket and rear bench seats tilt Deluxe headrests over modern lap belts. In front of those seats, a body-matched dash hangs modern telemetry over direct-fit audio. Color-keyed carpet frames a chrome Hurst shifter between Standard side panels. And the driver spins a polished steering wheel around a painted, tilting column.

Combining great performance with crisp aesthetics and timeless Motor City swagger, this impressive coupe really puts the “class” in classic. And best of all, being a first-generation Camaro, it'll always be one of the most in-demand collector cars on the market. On the hunt for some no excuses metal that'll draw a crowd wherever it goes? This Chevy is your kind of fun!
