Fully-restored muscle cars are the best muscle cars, and the ’69 Chevrolet Camaro SS right here is living proof of how you should properly take care of American muscle.
Currently being sold on Craigslist, this Camaro SS has received a full restoration treatment that brought it in tip-top shape, and the owner guarantees it’s garaged and babied just the way such an iconic model deserves to be.

Powered by a 350ci (5.7-liter) V8 fully rebuilt engine, the Camaro SS also features the original interior, and the photos are living proof in this regard. The Camaro looks almost like a brand-new model, and at first glance, it’s really hard to tell it’s a 51-year-old car.

The seller explains that the car has 92,000 miles (148,000 kilometers) on the clock, so it’s not necessarily a low-mileage Camaro. But it still runs just perfectly, they say.

Given all of the above, you really shouldn’t expect it to come cheap. And this makes total sense. A barn find, which very often comes in a really poor condition, with rust all over the body and missing parts, can be yours for as much as $10,000, so it goes without saying that such a restored unit is a lot more expensive.

At first glance, this isn’t as expensive as it could be, as the ’69 Camaro SS can be yours for $49,000.

Nevertheless, anyone who wants an old muscle car in mint condition doesn’t necessarily have to purchase a restored model. Any project car would pretty much help bring back a Camaro to new condition, although at the same time, this requires quite a lot of time, as well as the know-how to make it happen.

So at the end of the day, if you’re just looking for a new driver without being interesting in the restoration thing, this Camaro right here might be exactly what you’re looking for.
