What was the inspiration?
This was built to be the ultimate sports car with a super powerful engine and a back seat for the kids. Fesler Built out of Scottsdale AZ decided to set the bar high with this build and redesign the complete front and rear fascia and sides and spoiler. Fesler Built also owns and operates Fesler Billet and we built custom billet grilles and tail lights for our new bumpers. This car had the looks of no other car and now we needed to make it move like no other car. Fesler Built has a complete LS-9 engine package upgrade to drop into any vehicle. With the LS-9 and auto tranny in place (yes the paddle shifters still work with some custom wiring) the car needed rear axles for strength. A complete Peddars bushing kit and adj Coil kit with sway bars was installed. Massive 6 piston Fesler branded Baer brakes were installed all the way around. Fesler branded Asanti 22-inch front and rear wheels with Continental tires were added as well.Fesler rewired the car, harness and computer from the factory Camaro to work with the new GM Performance LS-9 engine and 6L90 auto tranny. With a new Drive shaft to fit the new engine the car now needed some custom interior to go with the custom Fesler body kit
With the car having the look of a 1969 Camaro we wanted to inside to match so we went to Roadwire and had them take some old Hounds Tooth material and do new leather seats and orange inserts. We also did the new double din conversion and had all the accents hydro dipped in orange to match the paint and seats. Lots of work went into the doors to make them work perfect with the drop down windows. Using parts from a brand new Cadillac and a bunch of custom work the doors work perfect and resemble the corvette door handles to go with the rest of the theme.
Basically we wanted corvette power with the 69 look and everything custom. This car is not a one off piece you can actually call us and order yours today and unlike all the other guys that just drop in engines you get a body kit and accessories all by Fesler.Fesler body kit, Fesler grille, Fesler tail lights, Fesler spoiler, Fesler wheels, Fesler brakes, Fesler wire harness, Fesler Tune and the Fesler interior make these packages unique from all other builders out there.Fesler teamed up with Jon Moss to create the Fesler Moss Camaro you see here today and you can call the shop to inquire about building one like it or modifying your car.My favorite part about the car is that no one has anything that looks like this, its truly a one of a kind super car and we hit about 180MPH on the dyno don’t know if I would ever drive it that fast on the roads but it can do it and might be able to hit 200MPH. it handles like a dream and is really fun to drive. The day we tuned it on the dyno we were doing over 120MPH on an open road and had a blow out and just felt like a bump in the road. We bought the very first V8SS white car in AZ along with 5 other Camaros when they hit. This car is number one of 50 we are building so this car is very speacial This car sounds awesome drives awesome and will beat the ZR-1 off the line we have one here at the shop the we use to compare and test against and the Camaro is faster than the ZR-1 Corvette. The Camaro also has a back seat so you can if you really wanted to stick 4 people in it and go, not that we would but you could.
