1970 Chevrolet Camaro 2 Door
1970 CAMARO RADICAL CUSTOM SHOW WINNER WITH TWIN BLOWERS!
This RARE COLLECTOR SHOW CAR beat CHIP FOOSE back when he was working for BOYD CODDINGHAM!!!!!! ....YES!!!!! this car BEAT CHIP FOOSE!!!!!!!
HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO OWN ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER CARS ON THE ISCA - INTERNATIONAL SHOW CAR ASSOCIATION (http://www.theisca.com/) CIRCUIT OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS!
(The ISCA sanctions the largest group of indoor car shows produced in the United States and Canada. In 2007 the Association sanctioned 42 shows that covered 27 states and 4 provinces in Canada. The shows cover the entire United States, with shows from Boston, MA to Phoenix, AZ and from Atlanta, GA to Portland, OR along with many stops in between).
WITH THIS BEING SAID, THIS CAR WAS BUILT BY ED HANEY OF LILBURN GA WITH ONE GOAL IN MIND, AND THAT WAS TO WIN THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS AWARD GIVEN BY THE HIGHEST CAR SHOW ASSOCIATION. THAT WAS ACHIEVED IN 1986 WITH THIS CREATION UP FOR AUCTION "ENDLESS DREAM". ED ATTENDED 19 ISCA CIRCUIT SHOWS TO OBTAIN 896 TOTAL POINTS TO BECOME THE 1986 OVERALL CHAMPION. THE CAR ALSO WON THE SOUTHEAST FOR 10 YEARS IN A ROW AND THE NORTHEAST 5 YEARS IN A ROW. WHEN THE NORTHEAST AND SOUTHEAST COMBINED TO FORM THE ATLANTIC DIVISION, "ENDLESS DREAM" WON 2 YEARS.
AS MENTIONED, "ENDLESS DREAM" IS A 1970 CAMARO TOTALLY TRANSFORMED INTO THE MOST RADICAL STREET MACHINE OF ITS TIME. THE ONLY UNTOUCHED PART OF THE CAR WHICH STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL LOOK IS THE ROOF LINE. EVERYTHING ELSE WAS EITHER CUSTOM MADE OR REWORKED TO CREATE THIS MASTERPIECE. THE FRONT END WAS DESIGNED, MADE AND ATTACHED AS ONE PIECE. WITH THE REMOVAL OF ABOUT 6 BOLTS, THE ENTIRE FRONT END CAN BE REMOVED (FENDERS AND FRONT). EACH GRILL BAR WAS INDIVIDUALLY HAND CUT OUT OF 1/4 INCH PLATE ALUMINUM THEN ANODIZED, MEASURED AND PLACED TOGETHER. THE ENTIRE CAR IS SMOOTHED (SEE FIREWALL PICS) TO SHOW ALL LINES AND TO HIDE UNSIGHTLY NECESSITIES. THE FRAME WAS FABRICATED OUT OF 1/4 INCH PLATE ALUMINUM WELDED AND POLISHED (SEE PICS), ALONG WITH THE RADIATOR CORE AND CROSS RAIL. ALL PLUMBING , STEERING RACK, FUEL PUMP ETC. ARE HIDDEN INSIDE THE CROSS RAIL. AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, THE BACK END WAS TOTALLY RE-WORKED WITH CUSTOM LIGHTS TO MATCH THE FRONT AND A RADICAL HAND MADE FIBERGLASS WING TO SIT ON THE DECK LID. THE WHEELS ARE 15 INCH TRUE WIRE SPOKE WHEELS SET UP IN CHROME AND GOLD.
"ENDLESS DREAM" WAS PAINTED BY WINSTON MITCHELL (ALSO DID THE BODY FABRICATION) IN A HOUSE OF KOLOR'S TANGERINE OVER A GOLD BASE. LATER THE RED, YELLOW AND PURPLE GRAPHICS WERE ADDED AND DONE WITH MICA FLAKE. THE ENTIRE UNDERCARRIAGE IS DONE IN THE SAME TANGERINE, GOLD, CHROME AND POLISHED ALUMINUM (SEE PICTURES). ALSO SEEN IN THE PHOTOS ARE THE WHEEL WELLS AND BRAKE ASSEMBLY COMPLETELY DETAILED IN GOLD AND CHROME.
NOW TO THE FUN PART! THE MOTOR IS A 350 CRATE THAT WAS GROUND AND FILLED TO BE SUPER SMOOTH RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. ONE-OF-A-KIND DUAL BLOWERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE TOP (YES 2 BLOWERS) THAT LEAD OFF TO 4 GOLD PLATED WEBER CARBURATORS (THE COST OF THE ENGINE BUILD ALONE IS MORE THAN WHAT THE CAR IS BEING SOLD FOR!). TRANSMISSION IS A 350 TURBO. EVERYTHING ELSE IS ALSO ALL MADE INDIVIDUALLY FOR THE CAMARO. NOTICE ALL THE DETAILS AND ETCHING ON THE ENGINE AND THROUGHOUT THE CAR(ALTERNATOR, VALVE COVERS ETC.). HEADERS AND SIDE PIPES ARE ALL ONE PIECE. THE REAR END IS OUT OF A CORVETTE AND OF COURSE PAINTED, PLATED, CHROMED, ETCHED AND DETAILED TO MATCH THE REST OF THE CAMARO.
THE INTERIOR IS ONCE AGAIN ALL CUSTOM. ALL WOOD IS HAND CARVED AND MADE TO FIT PECAN WOOD. AS SEEN, THE ENTIRE DASH AND CONSOLE ARE PECAN WOOD ALONG WITH PIECES ON THE DOORS, HEADLINER, BACKSEAT AREA, FLOOR AREAS AND TRUNK. THE SEATS WERE MADE SPECIFIC FOR THIS CAR AS WERE ALL THE GAUGES AND STEERING WHEEL. ALL LIGHTS, TV, GAUGES AND ELECTRONICS ARE FUNTIONAL.THE TRUNK MATCHES THE INTERIOR AND ALSO HOUSES THE FUEL CELL LOCATED/HIDDEN IN BETWEEN THE BACK SEAT AND THE TRUNK.
HERE ARE SOME VERY IMPORTANT DETAILS ON THE CAR. ENDLESS DREAM HAS NEVER SEEN THE ROAD! IT HAS ONLY BEEN MOVED TO MEET THE RULES OF ISCA RULES AT EACH SHOW. IT HAD TO DRIVE FORWARD, TURN LEFT, TURN RIGHT STOP AND BACK UP. THAT WAS THE EXTENT OF THE DRIVING OF THIS CAR. SINCE IT'S SHOW DAYS, IT HAS BEEN STORED (10 YEARS). EVEN BEING STORED FOR THAT PERIOD OF TIME, EVERYTHING ON THE VEHICLE IS VERY WELL PRESERVED BUT DOES NEED A VERY GOOD CLEANING (SEE PHOTOS). SOME SURFACE BUILD-UP CAN BE SEEN AROUND AND THROUGHOUT THE CAR BUT AS MENTIONED WITH SOME ELBOW GREASE IT CAN ALL BE REMOVED AND PUT BACK INTO SHOW CONDITION. THE CAR DOES RUN BUT WOULD NEED A NEW SET OF PLUGS (BATTERY AND MOST FLUIDS WERE TAKEN OUT OF THE CAR BEFORE IT WAS STORED). AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, THERE ARE A FEW IMPERFECTIONS IN THE PAINT. THERE IS A SMALL CHIP ON THE INSIDE OF THE DRIVERS DOOR, ONE ON THE FRONT OF THE HOOD AND SMALL BUBBLES FORMING AROUND THE REAR TAILLIGHT AREA AND DECK LID..VERY SMALL FIXES, BUT I WANT TO LIST EVERYTHING AS TRUE AS I CAN. TIRES ARE NOT DRY ROTTED AND EVERYTHING MOVES FREELY AS IF IT WERE BUILT YESTERDAY.
THE CAR WAS BUILT FOR ONE REASON ONLY AND THAT WAS TO WIN! AND IT DID... WITH OVER $300,000.00 INVESTED INTO IT, 37,000.00 OF THAT BEING IN GOLD PLATING, IT DID IT'S JOB. I AM the CURRENT OWNER and due to my DISABILITY I CAN NO LONGER KEEP THIS CAR CLEAN FOR THE SHOWS SO ITS TIME FOR THIS LEGACY to MOVING ON FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO ENJOY..WILL trade TITLE 4 TITLE for a Super Charged SRT8 CHALLENGER,Super Charged SS 2010 CAMARO or a Super Charged STREETROD/RATROD...
