For Sale: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro in Topsfield, Massachusetts for sale in Topsfield, MA
Vehicle Description I purchased this 1969 Camaro in 1992.
It was rally green and had the original 307 engine and a 3-speed manual on the floor and no power steering or power brakes.
It was difficult to drive.
The following year I replaced the manual transmission with a newly rebuilt automatic TH 350 transmission and installed power steering.
It was mostly kept in storage for the next decade driving it sparingly in the summers.
In 2014 I brought it to a local body shop for a full frame-off rotisserie restoration which was completed 4 years later in 2018.
The car was stripped of all its rusted metal and replaced with new metal (trunk pan, quarter panels, door, rocker panels, fenders (inner & outers) cowl hood, and bumpers).
All weatherstripping is new all body emblems, wheel well-opening moldings panels.
There is no rust or any type of filler on this car.
The photos show the entire restoration process.
I have driven the car less than 500 summer miles since the restoration was completed.
At this point, the body is truly in the condition it was in when it left the factory in 1969.
The restoration included stronger and additional welding points than factory and makes the unibody frame stronger than a factory Camaro.
The Camaro is painted in a pearl white which changes color in the sun and has a new black convertible top.
As shown in the photos, the body lines on the Camaro are perfect and the paint is flawless.
I installed a fresh turnkey 350 ci, 328hp 2 bolt crate engine with all chrome accessories including a new Edlebrock 4 barrel carburetor as part of the restoration.
The restoration also included some custom details such as shaved door handles and installed door poppers, and custom metal work on the rear valance, and painted bumpers to give it a clean look.
I also installed a new cowl hood.
The car has the rebuilt turbo 350 transmission which I installed in 1993 and a new shift kit.
It runs amazing.
The suspension was completely overhauled with new front and rear Hotchkis suspension lowering kits installed (front and rear sport springs, ball joints, control arms, sport sway bars, and all bushings replaced).
The car has the power steering I installed in 1993.
As part of the recent restoration, I installed a new front disc brake set up including new master cylinder, brake booster, hoses rotors and pads.
The dual exhaust system is new from front to back.
I initially installed headers but changed to Sanderson exhaust manifolds to quiet it down a little.
The Camaro has many other new parts including fuel tank, windshield, and more which are too many to list.
The owner of the body shop who personally did the restoration (Karpenko Kustoms in Ipswich, MA) is available to answer any questions concerning the restoration.
The Camaro is outfitted with new Michelin tires and American Standard racing wheels giving it a classic Camaro look.
It drives incredible just like you would expect of a Camaro leaving the showroom in 1969.
