Most every car enthusiast has bought a project car with a vision in their mind of how this car would look once completed. For some of us with the skill set and the financial resources these dream cars came to fruition, but for most of us that project never really goes in the direction we hoped, or life gets in the way and you have to sell the car for the funds before it is done. Whatever the case, we are pretty sure the dream car in your mind looked a heck of a lot like the 1973 Chevrolet Camaro featured here. This Camaro has been treated to a thorough frame-off restoration with all the classic performance upgrades. Included in the sale of this Camaro is a photo history of the restoration as well as the receipts documenting the build.
The black paint was laid down over professionally executed bodywork. A set of dark grey rally stripes were laid down across the length of the body and the finish was polished to a deep luster. Further enhancements include a cowl hood and rear deck spoiler with the finishing touch being a set of chrome 18” Rocket Racing 5-spoke alloy wheels with 225/40ZR18 Nitto Extreme ZR tires mounted on the front wheels and a set of P265/40R18 Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials mounted on the rear wheels.
Inside the cab, the black interior has been fully restored including new door pads, seat upholstery, carpet, and headliner. A set of new Camaro logo-ed floor mats helps keep that new carpet looking fresh. A leather-wrapped billet steering wheel is capped with a factory horn button featuring a Camaro emblem. A carbon fiber bezel frames the AutoMeter gauges that monitor the engine vitals and a Pioneer Super Tuner with AM/FM is SAT Radio ready and features an AUX output to power the soundtrack for your cruises. The gears are selected by a B&M Megashifter built to fit perfectly in the factory console.
Under the hood is well-detailed and show ready. A performance-built 383cid small block Chevy sits between the rails and is topped with a Holley Sniper Fuel Injection with a Brodix aluminum intake and heads. An MSD Ignition fires the fuel mixture and the spent exhaust flows through a set of Hooker Headers. Custom details abound with a smoothed firewall, billet hood hinges, and fender brackets as well as spun aluminum underdrive pulleys. This hot setup is kept cool with an aluminum radiator with electric fans mounted in an aluminum shroud. Power is transferred through a GM Turbo 350 Hydra-Matic 3-speed automatic to a 10-bolt differential equipped with a limited-slip carrier and aluminum cover.
The suspension and steering were fully rebuilt during the restoration and the undercarriage remains nicely detailed. Upgrades include Wilwood power four-wheel disc brakes and all new brake lines. A Holley in-tank electric fuel pump pushes the fuel through all new fuel lines up to the Sniper EFI. The engine rumbles deeply through a Pypes stainless steel exhaust with an X-pipe and polished stainless steel cross-flow transverse mounted muffler.
