“This 69 Camaro is awesome! White is my personal favorite color and I love the custom red interior. This is one mean street machine that’s loaded with a ton of modern conveniences. The new owner is going to to have so much fun with this car!” - Marc Schiliro


This radical 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Custom is the ultimate G-machine with its striking appearance and high performance parts. The 69’ Camaro is one of the most popular and sought after American Muscle Cars of all time. The beautifully designed exterior and Bentley inspired interior is remarkable. It’s powered by a Supercharged LS3 V8 with 800HP and Tremec 6-speed manual transmission. It also rides on an Art Morrison and GT Sport combined full chassis. It checks all the boxes for the true pro touring and restomod enthusiast. As the VIN number indicates this car was originally built in Los Angeles, CA as a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe with an 8-cylinder engine. The car made its way to Chris Holstrom Concepts located in Payallup, WA for a complete custom build. Chris’s shop is well-known for high quality and award winning work. The vision of this build was to create a gorgeous street machine that was a “brute”. With tons of hours invested and an open checkbook the mission was accomplished. Since completion it’s only been driven 300 miles and ready for the new owner to enjoy. This car has really never been exposed which makes it extra special for the new owner to do so. MS CLASSIC CARS purchased the car in February of 2023 and this is the first time it’s been listed for sale.

The exterior of this first generation Camaro is super clean with its custom appointments and color combination. Chris Holstrom Concepts paired with well-known Josh Ewing of Ewing Kustoms located in Sumner, WA for the body and fabrication work. The steel cowl hood was re-shaped to accommodate the supercharger. The rear end was also re-shaped which included the tail panel, lower panel and lower rear quarter panels. All of the exterior marker lights were removed and smoothed. Countless hours were invested in prepping the body to achieve straight and fitted panels. The hood, doors and trunk lid close very nicely. The body was re-finished in a gorgeous shade of white which dresses the well-designed perfectly. The paint is high show quality and was recently detailed to a brilliant shine by the team at MS CLASSIC CARS. All of the glass was replaced with new tinted glass throughout which is crystal clear. The front and rear glass is trimmed with new stainless moldings which matches the windshield wipers. Some of the exterior custom features include dual Ring Brothers black billet mirrors, black grill, silver headlight buckets, modern LED headlights and fog lights, carbon fiber front spoiler, Ring Brothers black and polished aluminum door handles rivets, Kindig-it Design carbon fiber rear spoiler, billet tail light bezels, LED sequential tail lights, tail panel billet gas filler and exhaust outlets. The front and rear bumpers were trimmed, tucked, smoothed and painted match the body. The car was outfitted with custom Forgeline RC3 10-spoke wheels that 18x10 on the front and 19x12 on the rear. The wheels were finished in dark silver color and decorated with rivets which match the door handles. The wheels are wrapped with new Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires that are 275-35-18 on the front and 325-30-19 on the rear. MS CLASSIC CARS added new mirrors, rear spoiler and tires.

The interior of this car is breathtaking from the minute you open the door. Chris Holstrom Concepts paired with well-known Jamie McFarland of McFarland Custom Upholstery located in Puyallup, WA for design, trim work and fabrication. The red and black trimmed upholstery was inspired by Bentley with the Topstitch Diamond pattern swede inserts and rear area waterfall design. Some of the custom interior pieces include the one-piece headliner, Marquez dash, door panels, rear panels and rear shelve area which was designed to incorporate the RideTech half roll cage that was powder coated black.

This setup has roughly 800HP and dyno tested with 660HP at the rear tires. MS CLASSIC CARS had the car dyno tested and the dyno sheet is included.
