LECONTE EVENT CENTER AT PIGEON FORGE
Is this the ultimate 1969 Camaro? 🔥
At the 2026 Pigeon Forge Rod Run, I caught up with the crew from Justin Nichols Paint and Fab, and they brought out an absolute masterpiece for this year’s ScottieDTV Dirty Dozen. Built for repeat customers Tom and Sherri, this ’69 Chevrolet Camaro is a mind-blowing mix of hardcore Pro Street attitude with some ultra-clean Pro Touring touches.
Every single square inch of this car has been massaged, tucked, and smoothed to perfection. It wears a jaw-dropping, custom-mix Root Beer Brown paint job that absolutely glows in the sunlight, broken up by a killer accent stripe down the side capped off with a bright orange pinstripe.
Under the hood is a work of art—a massively powerful LSX 454 tucked into one of the cleanest, most highly detailed engine bays you will ever see.
But it’s not just a looker; it’s built to perform. This beast features a completely custom suspension setup and high-performance brakes, all riding on a classic, aggressive Pro Street style wheel and tire package that gives it the perfect, mean stance.
Justin and the team at Nichols Paint and Fab have truly outdone themselves with this one. Check out the full 4K widescreen walkaround and let me know what you think in the comments!
