1987 Chevy Camaro
Detailer's Dream
Over 15 years ago, Tony Bruno of Philadelphia purchased this Camaro as a daily driver. It caught his eye because there were only 794 LT models built in 1987. That same year, the RS six-cylinder model dbuted, but Tony needed a V-8. Instead of leaving it alone like most do with their daily drivers, Tony immediately started tinkering with it, and bolted on parts to make it faster. He made some improvements, but he felt those bolt-ons weren't enough. The engine had to go, and was replaced by a 383ci small-block Chevy built by Speed-O-Motive. This 525-horsepower stroker called for the rest of the car to be upgraded to handle it, and of course Tony was up to the task.
For the last 22 years, Tony has been detailing cars in the Philadelphia area, so it's no wonder he made this one of the cleanest third-generation Camaros we've seen. He's had his hands on over 25,000 cars, making his hobby a part of his daily life. Tony's been interested in cars from an early age, and can see the same thing happening with his 3-year-old son, too!
