The seller offers for sale this 1970 Chevrolet Camaro, powered by a 5.7-litre V8 engine, paired with a 350 automatic transmission.
This first-generation second-body-style Camaro is presented in the desirable Hugger Orange, one of the most recognisable colours associated with the model. The car is located in Groningen province, Netherlands, and is registered in Sweden with full EU documentation in place. The bodywork is straight with good panel fit throughout; the paintwork shows some minor imperfections in keeping with an honest classic of this age. The black bucket seat interior, door panels and carpeting are in a used but presentable condition. The car rides on period-style Torque Thrust-style wheels with spinner caps.
Introduced for the 1970 model year, the second-generation Chevrolet Camaro represented a significant styling departure from its predecessor, adopting a longer, lower and wider profile with the distinctive shark nose front end that has become one of the most celebrated designs in American muscle car history. Built to compete directly with the Ford Mustang, the 1970 Camaro offered a wide range of engine options and quickly became a favourite among performance enthusiasts. Today, first-year second-generation examples are among the most sought-after Camaros by collectors worldwide.
Under the bonnet, the original 350 V8 has been bored 0.03 over to 355 cubic inches and, according to a power printout included with the documentation, produces in excess of 430 bhp. The drivetrain is completed by a 350 automatic transmission, a limited-slip differential, disc brakes at the front, and a double exhaust system.
