My dad has built many many cars including 2 of my own. He is now taking on a very very unique and rare car. It is a 1969 Camaro Rally Sport SS. The car has 34,170 original miles on it, all matching numbers. One owner, who bought it new in North Carolina. It is absolutely MINT, NO rust whatsoever. The plans are to do a full engine overhaul, cam it, headwork, block work, etc., New paint, wheels, interior. The work has already begun and i figured i’d share with you guys. The body has been sanded down, primered, interior stripped out. We pulled the motor yesterday, and the tear down begins. Now for the pics… ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01320.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01320.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01321.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01321.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01323.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01323.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01324.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01324.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01325.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01325.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01326.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01326.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01327.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01327.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01329.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01329.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01330.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01330.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01332.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01332.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01333.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01333.jpg) ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01334.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01334.jpg) The motor, notice the 454 in the backround(not for the Camaro) :mwahaha ![http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01331.jpg](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/rucker006/DSC01331.jpg) ---

Wow, a numbers RSSS. Hard to find those now a days. I was building one for a customer of Petes for awhile. Same year, but far from matching numbers unfortunately. Ended up tubbed with Fabworks 4 link and MT DR’s, some huge CI big block in the 900hp range. Caged. Never saw it finished though. That’ll be a very nice car when done. I’m not a super fan of old muscle, but I do like the RS SS’s and few other cars like the Cuda’s and Super Bee’s. What color paint are you guys going with??? The lines of that body looks super good in a nice dark metallic paint IMO. ---

Not sure on what color he’s going with but he’s doing the whole 2-tone with the SS stripes. ---

J/W Who are you?
