We've featured some amazing Camaro pro-tourers over the past few months. And this 396-powered F1 Rally Sport is the latest in a long line of metal that seems to come in, spend one week being universally admired, and disappear to a new home. By definition, pro-touring cars are virtually irresistible because they combine everything great about modern performance with everything loved in vintage style. And who doesn't enjoy cruising a classic that mixes the best attributes of old school Detroit muscle with the killer performance of modern American icons? As a professionally built custom that delivers on every level, this sweet Camaro coupe is the kind of car you simply CAN'T ignore. It cruises like a new SS, sprints like a modern Corvette and oozes the style and class that made first generation F-Bodies the stuff of legend. If you're looking for an impressive muscle car that'll fare well on the road AND the show field, check out this awesome Chevy!

BODYWORK/TRIM

The beneficiary of a thorough, ground-up restoration that was completed by Wagner's Classic Cars of Bonner Springs, Kansas, this solid F1's slick Hugger Orange body is the product of A LOT of time spent sweating details. From its straight seams to its flat panels, the car's metal displays hours of skilled craftsmanship. Bright 2-stage provides a durable, mirror-like shine that's poised to last for years. Factory options include dual mirrors, a ZL-2 cowl induction hood, D80 spoilers and a Satin Black tail panel. And details like a custom front valence, shaved doors, functional quarter scoops and custom tail lamps create clean and subtle presence that would be right at home reflecting a summertime car show!

ENGINE

Despite what the car's carefully placed '502' fender emblems might tell you, this panther is actually powered by 396 cubic inches of Chevrolet V8. Oxygen enters the combustion chambers through conical filter elements, which graciously flow into a custom-fabricated air box. That oxygen gets spliced to fuel via Edelbrock injection, a big aluminum intake and traditional, cast iron cylinder heads. At the back of that intake, an aftermarket distributor shoots spark through eight MSD plug wires. Below those wires, ceramic-coated, long-tube headers help create a constant stream torque. At the front of those headers, a beefy aluminum radiator flows coolant past an electric puller fan and March serpentine components. And cool dress up items, like fabricated valve covers, Eddie hood hinges and a sculpted radiator cowl, highlight a clean, body-matched engine bay.

DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION

Park this Chevy on a lift and you'll find solid, Satin Black floorpans that provide a fitting backdrop for fresh, first rate hardware. Behind the buff big block, a tough hydraulic clutch kicks a Borg Warner T56 6-speed. That gearbox twists power to a chrome-capped 12-bolt rear end. Beneath that drivetrain, a reimagined suspension employs Ridetech RidePRO air ride amid tubular control arms and modern power rack-and-pinion steering. At the corners of that suspension, Wilwood calipers utilize fluid from a Wilwood master cylinder to squeeze four drilled and slotted rotors. Charred dinosaurs float from the aforementioned headers in to hearty Flowmaster mufflers via 3-inch, aluminized pipes. And torque transitions to pavement through polished Billet Specialties wheels, which spin 235/45ZR17 Sumitomo HTRZIIs in front of 245/45ZR18 Sumitomo HTRZIIs.

INTERIOR

Hit the remote for this Camaro's shaved doors and you'll find a heavily customized interior that wraps a nice blend of classic style and modern convenience around Momo-supplied seats. In front of those leather and suede buckets, a conservative dash frames clean Classic Instruments gauges and a sleek Sony CD player in stylish carbon fiber trim. At the base of that dash, a custom consolette centers a Hurst T-handle shifter between pushbutton start, small power window switches and controls for the aforementioned air ride suspension. Custom door panels, billet foot pedals, Kenwood speakers and "Camaro" branded floor mats add both form and function. In front of the driver, an intricate Momo steering wheel spins around a tilting column and controls for intermittent windshield wipers. And behind the passengers, a custom upholstered trunk frames a small amount of storage space.
