Recently updated on February 18, 2021 at 06:23 am

We keep finding that it's next to that Ford Mustang still many other classics out there that can become the ultimate Restomod can be converted and are popular in the scene. And that of course also includes the Chevrolet Camaro. And almost regardless of the year of construction. Almost all models are popular and this is especially true for vehicles from the end of the period 60er-year. And we would like to introduce you to just such a copy. The Camaro dates from 1968 and is an elaborately put together restomod with, at first glance, hardly changed appearance. Luckily! Because that is precisely why the first-generation Camaro is a very popular car among them Restomodders. The elegant lines and the inconspicuous exterior make the classic the ideal candidate for a "Sleeper". In other words, a vehicle that has a lot more under the hood than you might initially assume. And that is also the case with this copy.

And because the vehicle hardly weighs more than a current one Ford Fiesta, but almost the performance from Shelby GT500 Mustang has, the performance is of course like from another world. According to Bring a trailer description (the Chevy is currently for sale) sits under the hood 6,2 liter LS3 V8 engine with Holley EFI injection from a 2008 Corvette, which also has a Edelbrock E-Force compressor has installed. Plus a big one Intercooler, a new Camshaft and a few more modifications on the engine. And that's the ultimate Sleeper born. By the way, the Chevy is now shifted with one Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission and on the rear axle is a Limited slip differential (4.11: 1 limited slip) installed. The individual item reports acoustically by means of a specially made one Sports exhaust system have their say and of course they are too Wilwood brake system As well as the Ridetech chassis completely adapted to the present.

V8 with easily 700 HP engine power

According to the advertisement, the Camaro has just undergone the test 600 whp (Wheel power) and a torque of 950 Nm (700 lb-ft), which is well in the range of 10 to 15% power loss 700 HP engine power tends. In a vehicle that normally only 1.324 kg weighs, an absolute fabulous value. But what else is different about the 68 Camaro? It has changed Seitenwände in the back, they are new fender installed and also the bonnet as the trunk lid are revised. Even the Doors without handles, the missing ones purse and the distant Blinker were created on our own. However, these are details that only a connoisseur will notice at first glance. The complete vehicle is black varnished and stands up 18 inch forgeline rims. The panes are all around tinted and little details like that Camaro rearview mirror the second generation, the black one Ridetech fuel cap, the LED taillights or the LED Headlight round off the look impressively in typical Restomod manner. However, there have been extensive changes in the cabin as well.

Alcantara, carbon and a lot of leather in the cabin

Inside, the classic shows up with a completely new one Leather seats in black, there are Door panels and one headliner with Alcantara cover and a lot Carbon is built in. The in-house developed in the Center console includes a new one Gear levers, a Vintage Air A / C air conditioner and for a sound system away from the V8 under the hood is a Touchscreen infotainment system and sound system installed. But here, too, it's especially the small details such as the chic Driven sports steering wheel with 12 o'clock mark and Alcantara wreath that Aluminum pedals or the new one Carbon instrument clusterthat makes the classic so unique. Only the one that is somehow too colorful LED lighting One number is too intrusive for us in the cabin. However, this is only a small detail in an otherwise outstanding vehicle.
