An LS3 swapped split bumper Camaro Restomod! This car is turnkey and ready to drive anywhere! It's a fresh restoration with only 800 miles since completion. This car was restored by a professional with over 40 years of experience working on classic cars. The paint and body work are top quality, and it has all original sheet metal except the upgraded cowl hood. It's also equipped with many modern amenities that make cruising a breeze, like the six-speed automatic transmission and modern air conditioning for example. This car is done totally right!
EXTERIOR: Fresh and clean! Said to be all original metal with exception of the cowl hood. The guy we bought this car from did body work and paint professionally for 40 years and built this car as a hobby. The body is absolutely 100% laser straight without a ripple or wave in sight. All the panels are aligned well above average, and the gaps are very consistent throughout. The long heavy doors close very easily just like a new Mercedes. The Hugger orange PPG paint was laid out beautifully then polished to a smooth, slick, and glossy finish. It also has all new glass and rubber seals. All the trim shines nicely and even the bumpers and brackets are brand new. It's equipped with aftermarket LED headlights and taillights. The builder also added front and rear spoilers that really enhance the overall aesthetic. It's sitting on 17" Chrome Cragar SS 5 spoke mags that are wrapped in BFGoodrich G-Force Comp 2 performance tires that are wider in the back.
INTERIOR: Everything looks new from top to bottom! I'm really liking these Procar bucket seats. They are very comfortable with a high back and headrests and provide tremendous support while touring. They even have an adjustable lumbar and also recline and have brand new 3-point seat belts too. It also has a very nice new reproduction center console and an original style automatic shifter. The rear seat has been reupholstered with matching vinyl/stitching as the front seats and is equipped with seat belts too. I'm also a big fan of the analog/digital Dakota gauges. They have a very clean look, illuminate brightly and are easy to read. There are currently 801 miles on the odometer since restoration. The car has been completely rewired with a modern computer and has an OBD plug under the dash. It has a modern A/C and heat climate control panel by Vintage Air and also a retro stereo that are both cleanly incorporated into the dashboard. It's equipped with an aftermarket tilt column and an Eurosport steering wheel that has a great grip to it. The door panels look fresh, and the driver side has a remote mirror. The rearview mirror does look original and has some foggy spots. The dash pad, headliner, sun visors, rear shelf, and carpet all have been replaced and look fresh as well.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This Restomod has a modern LS3 swap! It's a 6.2 liter (376 cubic inch) fuel injected turnkey engine that generates 426 horsepower. It's equipped with air conditioning, power steering, and a custom air intake. All the hoses and wires are brand new and routed very nicely, and the battery is properly secured. It has an upgraded aluminum radiator by Champion that has dual electric fans to keep cool. The power brake master cylinder and booster have been replaced and upgraded with a Willwood proportioning valve. The underside of the hood, fender wells, and firewall are all neatly painted satin black.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jambs are painted Hugger orange and polished shiny just like the body. The weather stripping was replaced. The trunk pan metal is all solid and said to be original with a very neatly applied spatter finish paint.
UNDERSIDE: A beautiful undercarriage with many new components! All the steering and suspension components were rebuilt using fresh sport suspension parts by Hotchkins. It's equipped with front and rear sway bars that have new bushings as well. It has fresh Willwood disc brakes at all four wheels with new lines and even the emergency brake is hooked up. It's got a new full dual exhaust system that has an x-pipe and tips that exit under the rear valance. The gas tank and hanging straps have been replaced and the fuel pump was upgraded to an external unit that has fresh braided lines. Looking up at the LS3 engine everything looks clean and correct. Same goes for the 6L80 6-speed automatic transmission, it's nice and clean and has a fresh crossmember and mount as well.
