To further distinguish it from other Cheverra builds, the level of chassis preparation and use of special one-off components makes it a virtual platform for the promotion of special suspension components developed by Herb Adams/VSE. The Chevrolet Cheverras and Pontiac Fire-Ams were pioneer "tuner Cars" that deserve recognition for having paved the way for a very special automotive segment that followed. They were purpose built machines born out of the development project for the Pontiac's WS6 suspension program to which Herb was the chief engineer. As Pontiac special projects engineer, herb was instrumental in the development of the Trans Am SD-455 engine packages, among others. He also raced a host of highly competitive firebirds and Camaros in SCCA events. Herbs race cars were built by himself and engineers Tom Nell and Jeff young in there spare time sans factory backing. After leaving Pontiac in 1973, Herb continued on his own, creating F body chassis upgrades to forward his own racing effort. This is a numbers matching engine and a factory four speed car from the factory. "ORIGINAL GM BUILD INFORMATION" The subject1970 Camaro began life late in the 1970 model year as a standard Camaro model with a 350 c.i. 250 hp v8 engine with a four speed manual transmission. Typically Cheverra conversions were based on a standard v8 model such as this. Herb was of the belief that the best candidates for staged builds were lower cost base models where the exchange of components had less impact on the overall build cost. The end result would be the same as if you were to start with a higher performance optioned production vehicle, but overall cost to build much less. Herb sold the components via mail order, individually or in three tiered packages, so any F body owner could build there own. Consequently, the possibility exists that any Cheverra could have been created by one of three methods; Cars and Concepts built it from a new car delivered from a dealer, VSE built it from a private-owner car, or a private owner ordered the parts and built it himself. The later two scenarios are likelihoods for this car. However ,the level of preparation on this car is consistent with VSE having performed the work taking into consideration the quality and the amount of one-off components that were specially constructed for the build. Additionally, the components used on the chassis were selected from VSE stages I and II which indicates there was great deal of careful design consideration given for a very specific purpose. The chassis/body appears to be set up for SCCA Autocross and or Solo Racing and the quality of construction is consistent with VSE builds.

In large part, the special Camaro is the result of a challenge to match Porsche's styling and high performance handling attributes. The Camaro Cheverra did indeed accomplish the goal of matching Porsche Carrera handling and style. In summary this is a numbers matching engine, specially prepared Herb Adams Camaro Cheverra. It is shown and discussed in great detail on Mr. Wayne Guinns web site. With previous owners discussion with Mr. Guinn, this a good possibility that this one of two Herb Adams Camaro Cheverra prototypes or test cars, and this one is thought to be used in SCCA events. This Cheverra has been painstakingly, rotisserie restored to as race condition, actually to new condition before its first race. All of the original special Herb Adams components have been cleaned and where necessary, repainted to there original colors as prepared by Mr. Adams. The underside and body have been completely restored to as new condition. Herb Adams VSE built Fire-Ams and Cheverras are purpose built concept cars whose heritage is derived directly from GM engineering sponsored programs similar to the "combine" build of Hurst/Olds, Baldwin/motion (Vettes,Camaros and Novas) And Nickey, Berger and yenko. Using the F body frame the Herb Adams (VSE) was able to bring the second generation Camaro - firebird chassis to superior performance level to gain world class recognition by matching the best factory and race prepared vehicles including the formidable Porsche. Herb Adams and VSE are widely recognized as being pioneers in high performance chassis tuning. GM's elevated state of chassis tuning today is easily traceable to Herbs initial work which is best known for having gone beyond 'Muscle" to create a uniquely balanced and highly competitive product. There is no hard documentation that speaks to how many Cars And concepts, VSE, or private builder VSE Stage Packages were installed over the years to create Fire-Am And Cheverra vehicles.Very few VSE Fire-Am and Cheverras over the years but when they do they never disappoint as they still remain highly competitive even in todays highly advanced technological environment. According to Mr. Wayne Guinn this Cheverra survivor and highly collectible car that can still be driven to itd limit with out fear due to the meticulous level of preparation. At this time this Car is the bestg known example of a highly competitive VSE equipped, Stage II Camaro Cheverra in existince! This is a an opportunity of a lifetime to awn a piece of automotive history today.

"VSE STAGE II"
CHEVERRA
The 1970 Camaro identified in this eBay ad enjoys a full distinction of being of a very few second generation Camaros appointed with Herb Adams VSE "Staged" Cheverra components. To further distinguish it from other Cheverra builds, the level of chassis preparation and use of special one-off components makes it a virtual platform for the promotion of special suspension components developed by Herb Adams/VSE.
The Chevrolet Cheverras and Pontiac Fire-Ams were pioneer "tuner Cars" that deserve recognition for having paved the way for a very special automotive segment that followed. They were purpose built machines born out of the development project for the Pontiac's WS6 suspension program to which Herb was the chief engineer.
As Pontiac special projects engineer, herb was instrumental in the development of the Trans Am SD-455 engine packages, among others. He also raced a host of highly competitive firebirds and Camaros in SCCA events. Herbs race cars were built by himself and engineers Tom Nell and Jeff young in there spare time sans factory backing. After leaving Pontiac in 1973, Herb continued on his own, creating F body chassis upgrades to forward his own racing effort.
This is a numbers matching engine and a factory four speed car from the factory.
"ORIGINAL GM BUILD INFORMATION"
The subject1970 Camaro began life late in the 1970 model year as a standard Camaro model with a 350 c.i. 250 hp v8 engine with a four speed manual transmission. Typically Cheverra conversions were based on a standard v8 model such as this. Herb was of the belief that the best candidates for staged builds were lower cost base models where the exchange of components had less impact on the overall build cost. The end result would be the same as if you were to start with a higher performance optioned production vehicle, but overall cost to build much less.
Herb sold the components via mail order, individually or in three tiered packages, so any F body owner could build there own.
Consequently, the possibility exists that any Cheverra could have been created by one of three methods; Cars and Concepts built it from a new car delivered from a dealer, VSE built it from a private-owner car, or a private owner ordered the parts and built it himself.
The later two scenarios are likelihoods for this car. However ,the level of preparation on this car is consistent with VSE having performed the work taking into consideration the quality and the amount of one-off components that were specially constructed for the build. Additionally, the components used on the chassis were selected from VSE stages I and II which indicates there was great deal of careful design consideration given for a very specific purpose. The chassis/body appears to be set up for SCCA Autocross and or Solo Racing and the quality of construction is consistent with VSE builds.

The words Chevrolet and Carrera combined help create the name Cheverra. In large part, the special Camaro is the result of a challenge to match Porsche's styling and high performance handling attributes.
The Camaro Cheverra did indeed accomplish the goal of matching Porsche Carrera handling and style.
In summary this is a numbers matching engine, specially prepared Herb Adams Camaro Cheverra. It is shown and discussed in great detail on Mr. Wayne Guinns web site. With previous owners discussion with Mr. Guinn, this a good possibility that this one of two Herb Adams Camaro Cheverra prototypes or test cars, and this one is thought to be used in SCCA events. This Cheverra has been painstakingly, rotisserie restored to as race condition, actually to new condition before its first race. All of the original special Herb Adams components have been cleaned and where necessary, repainted to there original colors as prepared by Mr. Adams. The underside and body have been completely restored to as new condition.
Herb Adams VSE built Fire-Ams and Cheverras are purpose built concept cars whose heritage is derived directly from GM engineering sponsored programs similar to the "combine" build of Hurst/Olds, Baldwin/motion (Vettes,Camaros and Novas) And Nickey, Berger and yenko. Using the F body frame the Herb Adams (VSE) was able to bring the second generation Camaro - firebird chassis to superior performance level to gain world class recognition by matching the best factory and race prepared vehicles including the formidable Porsche.
Herb Adams and VSE are widely recognized as being pioneers in high performance chassis tuning. GM's elevated state of chassis tuning today is easily traceable to Herbs initial work which is best known for having gone beyond 'Muscle" to create a uniquely balanced and highly competitive product.
There is no hard documentation that speaks to how many Cars And concepts, VSE, or private builder VSE Stage Packages were installed over the years to create Fire-Am And Cheverra vehicles.
Very few VSE Fire-Am and Cheverras over the years but when they do they never disappoint as they still remain highly competitive even in todays highly advanced technological environment.
According to Mr. Wayne Guinn this Cheverra survivor and highly collectible car that can still be driven to itd limit with out fear due to the meticulous level of preparation. At this time this Car is the bestg known example of a highly competitive VSE equipped, Stage II Camaro Cheverra in existince!
