1969 Chevrolet Camaro

The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro was changed to look more aggressive. The heavily restyled body looked longer and lower. The wheel wells were flattened with sculptured feature lines flowing off the towards the rear of the car and rear-slanting air slots ahead of the rear wheel. At the front of the standard Camaros was a grille with 13 slender vertical moldings and five horizontal moldings forming a grid surrounded by a bright molding. A badge with the Chevrolet bow-tie emblem was in the center. There were single round headlights at the ends of the grille. The full width bumper integrated with the body color outer grille surround and there was a license plate holder in the center of the valance panel. Round parking lights were positioned on either side of the license plate. At the rear were wider taillight bezels with triple segment lenses. The 1969 Chevrolet Z28 Camaro remains one of Americas most desirable Muscle Cars of all. With just $458 added to the base price of $2,726 of a Camaro coupe, the Z28 included twin rally stripes, quicker steering and the F41 handling suspension with E70x15 raised-letter tires on seven-inch wide rims. With a solid-lifter 302 V-8 and four-barrel carburetor the 1969 Z28 wasn't the fastest but definitely packed plenty of power for most performance seekers. Another option unique to the 1969 Z28 was the cowl-induction hood with a valve that opened to draw in cool air from the base of the windshield. The Hurst-shifted close-ratio four-speed was standard.
