Rich's 69 Camaro
Rich owned a handful of really nice stock 69 Camaros including a real Yenko and a low mileage Z28 but he wanted to actually drive one of them.....hard. He found this 69 and thought it would it be a perfect foundation for a pro-touring transformation. We started with a powdercoated front subframe from Detroit Speed as well as their QuadraLink and minitubs to get some rubber under the back. A new 9" rear end was assembled using a Strange center section with a 35 spline S trac differential. That spins a set of custom Strange axles through to a Miller Built full floating hub setup. StopTech 14" rotors are used front and rear with 6 piston radial mount calipers. The 18x11 and 18x12 wheels are from Forgeline and are wrapped in 335 and 315 sizes. The Frame Up fabbed front fenders allow the extra tire width in the front. A Mast Motorsports 416 is controlled by a Holley Dominator and a DeWitts radiator keeps it cool. Vintage Air supplied a Front Runner and a SureFit evaporator to keep the inside cool. Bowler Transmissions prepped a Tremec Magnum T56 for the car and it has seen over 10,000 miles most of them on a race track or autocross course.
