Fesler-Moss Camaro Number 1 Is A Love Letter To The 1969 Camaro

Early-2010s tuning companies usually had a problem with creating subtle and timeless designs, but Chris Fesler, veteran vehicle builder and Camaro enthusiast, managed to outdo everyone back in the day with this the Fesler-Moss Number 1.

Fesler took a stock fifth-generation Camaro and threw the parts catalog at it, as well as fabricated numerous one-off pieces to create the Fesler-Moss Number 1. The design is inspired by the 1969 Camaro and features a unique body kit designed by Fesler himself.

Under the hood is a 376 cubic inch supercharged LS9 V8 which produces 705 hp and 680 pound-feet of torque. All that twist is sent to the rear axle by way of a 6L90E six-speed automatic transmission, which according to the original builder, was much more difficult to install than a manual transmission because of all the computer systems that had to be connected. The transmission is controlled by paddle shifters for quicker shifts, while the rear axle was built by The Driveshaft Shop and features a 3.73 ratio.

That LS9 really howls thanks to the Fesler exhaust system, which features 1-7/8-inch headers, 3-inch collectors, and 3-inch B&B pipes. All that bark wouldn’t do much good if it handled like a pooch, so the suspension has been upgraded with a Pedders Track II kit, coilovers, bushings, swaybars, and a 2-inch drop.

Bring it all to a stop is a set of Fesler/Baer brakes, comprised of 15-in rotors and six-piston calipers in both the front end the rear. The massive wheels are Asante FS-914 units, and they measure 22 x9-inches up front and 22×10.5-inches in the rear.

The inside of the vehicle is similarly appointed with wild upgrades, including houndstooth seats with matching Hydrocarboned interior trim pieces. With such a loud mill under the hood, you’re going to need a similarly loud speaker system, and the muscle car features a 1,350 watt three-subwoofer sound system that should do the trick nicely.

The seller notes that the Camaro also features a k40 radar detector, which you’re probably going to need based on the rest of the car’s upgrades. When the Camaro was released it was dyno-tested to reach 185 mph (298 km/h), but Fesler had said when he built this monster that the revised bodywork and extra power from the LS9 should send that number deep into the 200 mph (322 km/h) zone.

The Camaro is now for sale at R&H Motor Group for $74,990, with only 4,055 miles (6,525 km) on the odometer.
