Powertrain & Drivability

Powered by a 5.3-liter Vortec V8 with a fabricated intake and Holley Terminator EFI, this build routes power through a 4L60E four-speed automatic to a 10-bolt rear axle. Kooks headers feed a dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. Chassis updates include CPP power steering and power-assisted front discs with rear drums.

The car rides on 17-inch U.S. Mags wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires. Inside, TMI front buckets, a center console, and a Kenwood cassette unit retain the cabin’s classic appearance. The air-conditioning compressor and condenser have been removed. Recent service in September 2025 addressed spark plugs, transmission fluid and filter, and differential fluid.

The speedometer was repaired in September 2025. The odometer showed 2,680 miles at auction; total mileage is unknown.

Exterior & Presentation

Finished in metallic gray with black hockey-stick stripes, the car presents with RS-style concealed headlamps and a clean first-generation silhouette. The restrained updates emphasize drivability and clarity while preserving the 1969 Camaro’s archetypal stance and proportions.
