Big Block Custom Z28 manual racing borla hotchkis black aluminum custom 1971
Description
This 1971 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 tribute is the perfect balance of vintage style and all the right upgrades. With a performance-built big block V8, five-speed transmission, upgraded suspension, and stunning paint, it's built to be the classic that you can enjoy the drive and arrive in style. That blue really grabs your attention, doesn't it? It looks almost like the factory Mulsanne Blue, except a shade richer and a slick shine that comes from a modern clearcoat. The color fits in with the Camaro crowd, and yet, it remains distinct at the same time. But more than just bold paintwork, the iconic Z/28 dual white stripes complete this attractive package. Plus, they help accent the fearsome L88-style hood, full width spoiler, and custom rear panel. A performance package like this doesn't need a ton of bright work, and so it's just used to accent some of the coolest places, like the form-fitting rear bumper and the dual front ones that make way for the iconic RS-style wide grille. And the addition of polished 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust units help remind us all that this is something extra special. You can instantly tell this Camaro wants to get down to business the moment you open the door. Black bucket seats coordinate nicely with the carpeting, door panels, and dash. While this looks very purpose-built for driving, there's some nice comfort, including a modern AM/FM/CD stereo w/USB input. But when you sit behind the wood and chrome steering wheel, you'll instantly feel a tingle of excitement. The full set of Dakota Digital instruments have an aggressive blue glow, and the only thing brighter is the white face of the Bosch tach. These tell your senses that there's something special under the hood even before you turn the key and hear it roar. The tidy engine bay is clean and mean as it showcases serious big block power. For most of us, having a 454 cubic-inch V8 in a Camaro like this is exciting enough. But they didn't stop there with the upgrades. It has been fortified and enhanced with the best pieces, including Brodix aluminum heads, Comp Cams camshaft, MSD ignition, Edelbrock Performer intake, and topped with a large Holley dual-feed 750 CFM four-barrel carburetor. The Hooker long tube headers add even more power while they also contribute to the sweet rumble of the Borla dual exhaust. It all stays cool thanks to a triple-core aluminum radiator w/dual electric fans. Making sure you get the most out of this enhanced V8 is the Tremec five-speed manual transmission that includes a McLeod 12-inch performance clutch for truly confident power shifting. This feeds a versatile 3.42 rear end with Positraction. With this kind of power, you'll be glad to have suspension upgrades like power steering, front disc brakes, thick Hotchkis sway bars front & rear, traction bars, and the modern grip of Goodyear Eagle F1 tires. With classic aggressive looks and all the power to back up this appearance, you know this is the right custom Camaro. So don't let something this distinct and powerful slip away. Call now!
