This is a real 1970 RS/SS Camaro that came with a small block 5.7 350c.i 300HP L48. This is a true Z22 (RS) and Z27 (SS) optioned Camaro.

The Camaro paint code is 53 53 (Camaro Gold) with 727 Saddle deluxe interior. This Camaro also has the desired Rally Sport option, hich includes the burl wood interior pieces on door panels, luster bezel, nd shifter plate. The RS option also included the highly desired split bumpers, xtended polyurethane nose piece, wo-piece black grill, hrome grill housing, nd two chromed bumpers. The RS option also included the cool round rally turn signals.

The SS option included a small block 5.7 300HP L48. Unfortunate, he original L48 was removed by the previous owner, ut was replace by a LT1 5.7 small block that is carbureted by a Holley 650. In 1970, ll Camaro vehicles with SS or Z28 RPO option came with a 12 bolt rear end. 1970 marked the last year for the 12 bolt rear option for the Camaro. This Camaro has the original 12 bolt with 3.08 gears (due to AC unit). The Camaro SS also has the F-41 suspension upgrade that features a thicker front sway bar and a rear sway bar.

This Camaro has the rear tail light panel painted Black. It is debated whether only big block SS Camaros or all SS Camaros had the rear tail light panel painted semi-gloss black. Some argued that the black should be flat or satin. According to the second owner, he car was purchased with the rear tail panel black. In 1970, t was not out of the ordinary for the customer to work out special request that were added to the vehicle (Black stripes, pecial RPO’s, r special paint codes). In the event the next owner does not want the rear black panel, e can work something out and I’ll have it painted to match the rest of the car.

This Camaro was purchase from the second owner that had the car since 1992. The second owner used it as a daily driver until 2008. The Camaro was garaged for 5-6 years since.

This 1970 Camaro was built in Van Nuys, a during the third week of February 1970 (02C). The Camaro was sold and delivered on March 2, 970 at the Ted Green Chevrolet dealership in Torrance, a. This Camaro includes the original Protect-O-Plate and vehicle’s warranty, hich is signed by the original owner (Mr. G. B. from Torrance, a 1970). The Camaro also includes a partial, ut original built sheet removed from the gas tank. The partial built sheet has the important information such as VIN, otor displacement, ires, nd RPO. The rest of the built sheet is still on the left top area of the gas tank.

This Camaro has the original Ca blue license plate and has a clean California title. The car was originally sold in Torrance, a in 1970 and continues its existence in the south bay area.

The LT1 has new plugs, ew cables, ew open element air cleaner with new chrome lid and new air cleaner, ew radiator cover, ew power booster, ew brake cylinder, ew water pump, ew thermostat, ew fan clutch, nd new cap and rotor. The LT1 (center bolt) originally came fueled injected, ut it now has a GM aluminum intake with a 650 Holley. This Camaro is also an AC optioned car, owever, he AC is not currently working. Everything for the AC is currently on the car except for the AC condenser and Dryer. The AC’s water hoses are connected and are not leaking, herefore, here is a good probability the AC unit still functions.

The suspension was worked on and major component were replaced. The car has new, all joints, ew center link, ew tied rods, ew left brake caliper, nd new front brakes. This car originally came with steel rims with chrome moon hub caps that were housed by F- 70x14 tires (actual tire description is on built sheet).

This 1970 Camaro is great daily driver with highly desirable options. The total production for L48 SS Camaro was 10,012 (~9% of all production). The total production of RS optioned Camaro was 27,136 (~22%). Total production of L87 deluxe interior was 21,059 (~17%). What does it all mean? Well, oughly 370 Camaros in 1970 had the Z27 with L48, 22, nd Z87 RPO options. The pie can be sliced even more if we factor in AC, ransmission, ires, nd perhaps even the paint code productions into account.
