Arguably the 1969 Camaro is the most popular of the vintage years. With a number of styling enhancements over the 1967 and 1968 models, the 1969 represented a maturing of the brand, and through the years collectors, enthusiasts, customizers and racers have sought out the 1969 Camaro for their personal interests. This 1969 Camaro Resto Mod goes all the way to the wild side of life without apologies.

Amsley’s Collision Services in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, completed a rotisserie restoration in 2015 topped off with a rich coat of PPG Candyapple Red paint, Matte Black hood striping, color-keyed bumpers, massive front air dam, subtle side skirts and a custom Marquez interior including headliner and panels. A 6-speed transmission is bolted to a 5.7L LS1 V-8 engine nestled under the hood breathing through a custom Flowmaster exhaust system.

Keeping it all under control are coilovers at all four corners, Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes with 6-piston calipers, tubular upper and lower control arms and a polished TCI 4-link rear suspension. Adding to the creature comforts and style are power windows, smoked glass and staggered 19- and 20-inch black TSW wheels.
