1969 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe

1969 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe

The first-generation Chevrolet Camaro appeared in Chevrolet dealerships in September 1966 for the 1967 model year on a brand-new rear-wheel drive GM F-body platform and was available as a 2-door, 2 plus 2 seat, hardtop (no "B" or center pillar) or convertible, with the choice of either a straight-six or V8 engine. The first-generation Camaro was built through the 1969 model year.

For consignment, an actual unmodified Camaro! Seems all the models we get in here are all modified in some way but this 3-owner example has never been under the knife of the go fast bug. An AACA Driver Participation Class participant and multiple 2nd and 3rd place wins at the Bennington car show speaks volumes for this out of the ordinary Camaro. With its order process punchcard and service paperwork dating back to 1987, the only deviation from the way it sat on the dealership lot being a change from manual on the column to manual on the floor, (there was a brief time that an automatic transmission lived under the hump), it's safe to say this is probably the only 6-cylinder unmolested 1969 Camaro that will ever grace our Hallowed Halls.

Exterior
With a documented respray in the original Rallye Green over straight rust-free panels with very well minded gaps make for a very clean, head-turning cruiser that sports distinctly American livery! Zoom in on the details and this Camaro continues to impress. At the front of its body, a satin black grille hangs with the familiar blue bowtie emblem above clean parking lamps, and clean chrome bumper with optional bumperettes. Behind that grille, a requisite Camaro header fronts the standard hood, which flows to a tinted greenhouse that's dressed in polished mirrors, polished wipers, and straight stainless trim. At the sides of that glass, wheel frames and rocker spears, we note bright and shiny stainless steel, with the latter running rearward to stamped in the sheet metal quarter louvers. Traditional door handles, a driver's door mirror and correct badging grace the sides. And at the back of the car, a bowtie branded filler panel works with canted outward taillights and a second chromed bumper. Signature 14" rally wheels are wrapped with raised white letter Cooper Cobra rubber.
Interior
Continuing to follow the punch card data, we see a sea of black nice condition vinyl. This is covering the door panels which are wonderfully original, as are the buckets, which are high back versions with large headrests attached. In the back is a black 2 plus 2 rear bench and has the optional fold down capability. This rear bench is just as original and as nice as the front buckets. In the center, well within the driver's reach is a simple chrome handled shifter growing from the black carpeting. The dash is original and has the factory steering wheel in front. Standard gauges, the speedometer on the left and fuel on the right flank a ribbed Camaro badged center panel. We also note the wiper slide to the lower left along with a rarely seen rear window defogger switch. To the cluster right are the chrome heater slides and factory AM radio. Hanging under the dash is a FM frequency converter. Original black carpeting in nice condition is on the floors and above is a tight black vinyl headliner. This interior bleeds originality and the only piece that may not be original is the dash pad.

Drivetrain
Lifting the hood we are met with a well patinaed and surface rusted engine bay. Residing within is the original 250ci inline 6 cylinder which is fed by a freshly rebuilt 1bbl carburetor. Backing up this mill is a Saginaw 3-speed manual transmission circa 1968 that has been rebuilt which sends power back to a 10-bolt 3.08 geared rear axle.

Undercarriage
Patina abounds under this last year 1st generation Camaro. Factory undercoating is seen on the flooring and inner rockers with no signs of repair or invasive rust. As a matter of fact, the only rust seen is a surface coating on the unibody and suspension components. An independent coil spring suspension is on the front and in the rear is a monoleaf spring arrangement with new springs noted. Drum brakes provide the whoah factor all around and a single exhaust system is seen.

Drive-Ability
This car fired right up thanks to the rebuilt carburetor and instantly settled into a pleasant idle. Out on the test track it had wonderful acceleration from the inline tower of power, smooth shifting and responsive bias free braking. A wonderfully complete fully operational package here and even with the 6 under the hood it still drew many looks on my multiple laps around our test track.

All buttoned up mechanically, on the exterior, and on the interior as well all following the order card. A beautiful color combo, all ready to roll in style and even add a bit of excitement to your life. Just prepare to be stopped for lots of conversation as there aren't many unmolested 6-cylinder versions left.
