The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is one of the most recognizable muscle cars ever built, the near-epitome of '60s performance and style. Looking at this specific '69 Camaro Z/28 Tribute, it's easy to see why. Wrapping a massive Chevrolet big-block V8 under the hood and combining it with eye-catching black-over-orange aesthetics, this '69 Chevy looks ready to burn rubber at any angle. Powered by a large, date-correct "JQ"-code (indicating a 1969 model year) 396 C.I. "big-block" V8 breathing through an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor, this Camaro is ready to launch at the slightest touch of the throttle. Torque is put to the pavement through the use of a 3-speed automatic transmission, equipped with a B&M "T-Grip" shifter which shifts nice and smooth. The previous owner bought the car in 2009 from North Carolina, and upon taking delivery of the car, immediately had it repainted. Fourteen years later, the exterior orange paint is still show-quality in every way, pairing wonderfully with the black Z/28 rally stripes that run the length of the car. It gleams in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant shine, and it's sure to draw a crowd wherever it goes. The floors, frame, trunk and jambs on this '69 Camaro are all rock-solid, and each present nicely! Opening the twin doors reveals a beautiful black vinyl interior, complete with comfy patterned bucket seats that are perfect for cruising. Options on this mean '69 Chevy include power steering, an MSD distributor, a heater + defroster, Edelbrock valve covers, Hooker headers, factory gauges, a B&M "T-Grip" shifter, an Autogauge aftermarket tachometer, a Grant GT steering wheel, built-in aux. gauges, an aftermarket Sony AM/FM/Aux stereo, dual chrome mirrors, and an aggressive-sounding Flowmaster dual exhaust system. The car rides on brand-new chrome American Racing wheels over equally-new B.F. Goodrich RWL tires for a perfectly athletic stance and appearance! This '69 Camaro runs and drives down the highway beautifully, and it's ready to torch its rear tires at the turn of a key. Why don't you come take it for a spin?
