This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Pro-Touring build is a masterpeice of modern performance, seamlessly blending cutting-edge technology with classic muscle car aesthetics. Painted in stunning PPG Lemans blue with painted white hockey stripes and six layers of clear coat, this Camaro's bodywork is an immaculate blend of original styling and aggressive custom touches. The Detroit Speed mini-tubs and raised transmission tunnel accommodate serious performance upgrades, while new aftermarket metal panels throughout ensure a solid and striking exterior. The smoothed, satin black firewall adds a sleek touch to the engine bay, with Marquez front marker lights and Anvil Auto carbon fiber inner fenders further elevating its custom appeal.
Under the hood, a beastly LSX 454 engine delivers a monstrous 630hp, utilizing a Harrop Hurricane drive-by-wire intake manifold. Equipped with a forged rotating assembly and LS3 heads, this powerhouse is managed by a Speartech custom harness and GM E38 ECU, running a speed density tune for optimal performance. The ECU is discreetly mounted behind the glove box access door. Exhaust is handled by a full 3"" stainless steel TIG-welded system featuring Speedtech-specific Ultimate headers and Magnaflow mufflers for a deep, authoritative sound. Cold air is efficiently pulled through dual 4"" K&N filters mounted behind the headlights, ensuring the engine breathes easy while maximizing performance.
The engine cooling system features a Griffin LS swap radiator and dual Spal fans, controlled by a C6 Corvette PWM fan controller, providing adjustable cooling via the ECU to maintain optimal temperatures for both engine and A/C function.
This Camaro is equally equipped in the fuel department, utilizing a Detroit Speed/Vaporworx pulse width modulating fuel system and CTS-V fuel pump, rated for 1,000hp naturally aspirated setups. The entire system is neatly concealed behind trim panels, and all fuel lines are PTFE-lined braided stainless steel, designed for reliability and performance under extreme conditions.
Backing up this incredible engine is a T-56 Magnum close-ratio transmission from American Powertrain, complemented by a McLeod RST twin-disc clutch and sequential S1 shifter for precise gear changes. The drivetrain features a Strange Engineering Ford 9"" Street case with 4.10 gearing, 35-spline axles, and big Timken bearings, ensuring that all 630hp is efficiently transferred to the rear wheels.
The braking system is just as impressive, with Wilwood Superlight 6-piston front and 4-piston rear calipers clamping down on massive 14"" rotors. A dual brake booster with an auxiliary vacuum pump ensures consistent, powerful braking force, while high-temp brake fluid ensures reliable performance during track days and spirited driving.
Suspension comes courtesy of Speedtech's ExtReme subframe with double-adjustable Ridetech coilovers up front, allowing for quick camber and caster adjustments depending on your driving needs. Out back, a Ridetech triangulated 4-link setup with adjustable coilovers keeps the rear planted, whether carving corners or launching at the drag strip. Hotchkis subframe connectors tie the whole system together for a solid, responsive chassis.
Inside, the hand-crafted interior by Gillin Auto Interiors is designed for comfort and style. The adjustable Sparco seats are tailored to fit drivers up to 6'4"" in height, ensuring you can comfortably take this machine to the track while wearing a helmet. Luxurious BMW leather, Mercedes Benz carpet, and an Alcantara headliner create a refined yet functional cabin environment. A custom sound system with a Bluetooth-enabled Polk head unit, Rockford Fosgate speakers, and a 10"" subwoofer hidden in the trunk brings modern audio performance to this vintage ride.
Additional features include Vintage Air Magnum IV A/C, a keyless entry and push-button start system, and Speedhut custom OBDII gauges displaying critical vehicle vitals with integrated shift and warning lights. The car is fitted with a Detroit Speed electric RS headlight kit and 7-speed electric windshield wipers, providing modern conveniences while maintaining the classic Camaro aesthetic.
Overall, this 1969 Camaro Pro-Touring build is a no-expense-spared street machine that delivers exhilarating performance, modern comforts, and timeless styling, making it a dream for any enthusiast who demands the best of both worlds. Call us today to make it yours! -----
