1969 Chevrolet Camaro

The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 is one of the most iconic American muscle cars ever built, representing the peak of first-generation Camaro performance and style. Introduced as part of Chevrolets Trans-Am racing homologation efforts, the Z/28 package was designed to compete in the SCCAs 5.0-liter class, which limited engine displacement to 302 cubic inches. To meet this requirement, Chevrolet engineers combined a 327-cubic-inch small-block crankshaft with a 283-cubic-inch engine block to create the high-revving 302 V8, officially rated at 290 horsepowerthough real output was closer to 360 hp. The 1969 model year brought a more aggressive restyle, with a longer, lower look, deeply inset grille, and muscular fender lines that gave the car its signature stance. Performance options included a close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission, power front disc brakes, and the famous dual stripes running over the hood and decklid. Though it wasnt the most powerful Camaro of its time, the Z/28s balance of speed, handling, and race-bred engineering made it a favorite among enthusiasts and racers alike.
