Default My soon to be wife's new project driver. 1969 Z/28

My fiance told me she wanted a 1969 Camaro so I was on the hunt (of course she didn't want any of the cars I currently have here). Was at a local swap meet a few weeks ago and got to talking with some guys and they told me about this car. Me and her went up to look at it and she liked it so we struck a deal on it. It's an X77 Z/28 which happens to be an original Rally Green car. Tach and gauges and 4.10 gears. Non matching drive train. No other options really. Car was redone with GM quarters, tail panel, door skins, and fenders back in the late 80's and was driven and used like it should be. Paint is rough and checking but car is still very solid and I personally love the patina. We're gonna clean it up, I'll add some cool Day 2 stuff I have and make it look a little more correct under the hood but that's all up to her in the end. I figured if she wanted a 1969 Camaro, let's get her something cool. Big thanks to John (C1SS396) for all the help this past weekend picking it up and getting it home.
