In classic muscle cars, one vehicle reigns supreme: the 1971 Chevrolet Camaro. Known affectionately as “Split Decision,” this iconic masterpiece underwent a remarkable three-year transformation under the skilled hands of the RestoMod Store in Independence, Missouri.
Its journey culminated in the prestigious Goodguys Builder’s Choice Award in 2019, solidifying its status as an automotive legend.
From the get-go, the mesmerizing exterior of “Split Decision” grabs attention. With a captivating metallic blue finish complemented by a matte silver stripe, the car boasts breathtaking body modifications, including a custom fabricated hood and front splitter, alongside a late model ZL1-style integrated grille.
Further enhancing its allure are recessed split bumperettes, full-length floating rockers, extended wheel-opening flares, fog lamp intake funnels, shaved door handles, and billet 1969 Camaro-style taillamps.
KaTur Angel Eyes headlights and quad exhaust finishers add to its unique charm, ensuring heads turn wherever they go.
The “Split Decision” wheels are no less than a work of art. Boze Forged Clutch wheels, finished in dark gray with gloss black barrels, provide a stunning contrast, while Nitto Invo tires ensure both style and performance are in perfect harmony.
Beneath its captivating exterior, this ’71 Camaro packs a punch. Equipped with a Detroit Speed subframe, tubular control arms, and a Detroit Speed QUADRALink system at the rear, it promises a thrilling ride with precise handling and stopping power alongside Wilwood brakes.
Inside, luxury and comfort abound. ProCar bolstered bucket seats upholstered in leather offer a snug and stylish ride, while modern amenities such as Vintage Air climate control and a Pioneer touchscreen infotainment system elevate the driving experience.
Under the hood lies the heart of this beast: a 6.2-liter LS3 engine, a powerhouse featuring a shaved TSP Hi-Ram intake manifold, Comp Cams camshaft, and dual Precision Turbo 62mm turbochargers. Concept One serpentine drive system and valve covers ensure peak efficiency and aesthetics.
In June 2022, “Split Decision” found a new home, marking a new chapter in its history. With an impressive list of inclusions, including a Goodguys award and comprehensive service records, it is a testament to dedication and craftsmanship, captivating enthusiasts and collectors alike.
