Recent Classifieds at The MuscleCar Place! Here is a solid 1969 Camaro RS/SS 2-door coupe with a very 60's color
combination. Powered with a 350cid - 300hp V-8 engine that was built in
1970 with correct 1969 date coded heads, and mated to a TH350 automatic
transmission with a 10-bolt rear end. On top of the engine is a stock
4-barrel quadrajet carburetor. This southern rust-free car received a
frame-on restoration approximately 4 years ago and has only been driven
10000 miles since the restoration. Give the paint; color Frost Green
and Tuxedo Black rally stripes, a #9. This car was ordered with a code
#B - black vinyl top, a code Z87 medium green vinyl custom Strato-bucket
seats, Astro Ventilation, variable-ratio power steering, power brakes,
air conditioning, AM/FM radio, hide-away head lamps, deep cut-pile
carpeting, 4-pack gage package, rally wheels with trim rings, full
length console, floor mats, glove box light, bright metal pedal trim and
much more.
1966 Ford Mustang
This car fits together as tightly as it did when it was new, perhaps
even better, with outstanding gaps and exemplary panel alignment that
takes it above its contemporaries at the next cruise night show. Signs to the high quality of this build continue inside with a fully
restored black bucket seat interior, complete with center console. The
seat covers have been restored, along with all the other soft parts,
including the carpets, headliner, and door panels, so this Mustang feels
like a new car. The great thing about Ford small blocks is that they all look pretty
much the same, and anywhere a 260 will fit, a 351 will fit as well.
Finished in correct Ford Blue, it looks right at home under the
Mustang's hood. An
Edelbrock carb feeds the large size small block, and it has been dressed
up in matching valve covers and air cleaner.
1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
There's only one way to spell full-sized luxury with a Chevy bowtie on
it: Monte Carlo. This particular 1977 Monte Carlo shows just 24,959
original miles, making it an incredible survivor by anyone's definition. As a low-mileage, original car, you know the 350 under the hood is the
original, numbers-matching piece. Never out of the car, it runs the way
only an original engine does, with a healthy rumble and smooth idle. By
1977, the big horsepower engines were gone, but the 350 remained a
torquey, reliable running mate that could drive all those power
accessories without breaking a sweat. All the components appear to be
original, with proper paint finishes still present throughout the engine
bay. Signs of careful maintenance are visible everywhere, from the
fresh air filter, to recent belts and hoses. Power brakes and steering
are welcome additions to the heavy luxury cruiser, and the 3-speed
automatic is a trusted companion. The original wheels wear correct
hubcaps and a set of whitewall radials.
