RINGBROTHERS TEASES 1969 CHEVROLET CAMARO BUILD FOR SEMA 2019

We Have High Hopes For This One

Ringbrothers Camaro

The 2019 SEMA Show is less than a month away, and the mighty Ringbrothers have begun teasing some of their upcoming muscle car projects. The latest of which is the photo above.

All Ringbrothers would claim is the following:

Big things coming at The SEMA Show this year. Stay tuned for more! Any guesses what we’re unveiling?

Keen observers are quick to point out that the teaser rendering depicts nothing less than the rear three-quarter of a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro. The Wisconsin-based tuning and restoration shop has dabbled in Camaros in the past, with examples being the “G-Code” and “Razor” builds that were on display at previous SEMA shows. So it’s nothing to groundbreaking in that regard. And it certainly won’t be the only vintage Camaro with six figures worth of upgrades to it on the Las Vegas Convention Center showroom floor, either. However, this is Ringbrothers we’re talking about here, so we’re sure whatever they do will draw a crowd.

The teaser sketch does give us a few clues on the upcoming Chevrolet Camaro build, however. Notably, the carbon fiber rear bumper and roofline that go nicely with a steely tan body color. It could also hint at significant lightweighting efforts. That duckbill rear spoiler appears massive, while center-lock five-spoke wheels cover up a massive set of rear brake rotors. What sends the power to those rear wheels, however, we’re not entirely sure yet. But considering Ringbrothers’ knack for adding four-figure horsepower in their builds, we wouldn’t be surprised if this Chevrolet Camaro eclipses the output of G-Code, which had nearly 1,000 horsepower.

Muscle Cars & Trucks was founded by Manoli Katakis - an automotive media veteran that has been covering the latest car news since 2009. His journalism has uncovered dozens of major product changes, updates, plans, and cancellations long before automakers were ready to make things official.

Some highlights over the years of his reporting include the uncovering of the Zora trademark before anybody else reported on the coming of a mid-engine Corvette, as well as the dead-accurate reporting of the coming of the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2, two years before it hit the market, and even before the debut of the concept vehicle. This type of reporting has immediately continued here, with reports of the original seventh-generation Camaro plans being shelved, as well as what's in store for the Chevrolet Silverado.

Some of his work can be found on massive automotive media outlets, such as Motor1. He also has been a guest on the 910AM Radio Station with Detroit News auto critic Henry Payne, as well as the enthusiast-oriented Camaro Show podcast.

Over the years, Manoli has interviewed various automotive industry titans, leaders, and people that make things happen otherwise. These include figureheads such as GM CEO Mary Barra, GM President Mark Reuss, automotive aftermarket icon Ken Lingenfelter, Dodge firebrand Tim Kuniskis, along with various chief engineers of vehicles such as the Ford F-150 & Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro & Corvette, and many more.

At MC&T, Manoli is taking his journalism expertise, deeply planted sources, driving abilities, and automotive industry knowledge to new levels, covering more vehicles and brands than ever before. This is the place where you will continue to read groundbreaking stories about American performance vehicles, pickup trucks, and sport utility vehicles. Here is where you’ll also read insights and quotes from various automotive subject matter experts on the latest relevant products, as well as some of the latest official news from their manufacturers.

Fun facts: he also once beat Corvette Racing driver Tommy Milner in an autocross with a Chevrolet Bolt EV. The biggest vehicle he’s ever driven is a John Deere mining truck. Besides a go-kart, the smallest vehicle he’s driven has been a Hyundai i10. He’s also spent time in the cockpit of various American performance vehicle icons, including the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Dodge Challenger Demon, and Ford Mustang GT350R. He has reviewed dozens of trucks, SUVs, and performance vehicles over the years.

One of his favorite new vehicles on the market today happens to be the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Bison. He is also a card carrying member of the Sports Car Club of America, and regularly participates in Detroit Region autocross events.
