’69 Camaro
Mitchell Vanbeekum
Hopatcong, NJ

Mitchell Vanbeekum purchased his ’69 Camaro nearly 20 years ago when he was just a junior in high school. Since then, the first-gen has had plenty of time to mature, and it’s currently powered by a mild four-bolt main 350ci small-block. Sending the twist is a freshly rebuilt TH350 out to a 3.73:1 posi rearend. Other components include an electric fuel pump, fan, and a four-row radiator. His color of choice is Satin Silver metallic with black racing stripes.
