really cool 70 Z28..simply the best.

[Charley Lillard]

Here goes. I have kept my mouth shut as long as I can. Thanks to Stefano I have just acquired probably the nicest survivor 70 Z28 there is. It has 1100 miles and has not been outside or driven since 1973. No drag car stories etc. Norman, the orig owner drove it sparingly for the first three years and had every intention of driving it for years. But one day a friend of his sister's opened a car door against it and gave it a door ding. He got so mad he parked it. It has been in a climate controlled room ever since. Never had the oil changed and Stefano says it still looks like new. Spare etc has never been out of the car. I don't think the air cleaner has ever been off. Bought new at Fencl-Tufo. Still has remnants of the window sticker on the window. Norman threw the sticker away because it was just going to be his car. He saved all the other paperwork though. Orig air in tires. Car has never even been waxed. I have a few pics but will get more. Jason Ayers and his friend Dan met with Stefano and Guarise at Normans place today and loaded it up in Jason's trailer. Jason is hauling it back to Iowa and was going to give it a light cleaning but after looking at the car he is not sure that it should be touched. If any of you know Jason, he is that kind of Anal about orig stuff and the guy I wanted primping it. It is that kind of car. Thanks Stefano, Jason, Mike, Dan... And Thanks Norman for preserving this great car. This is amazing. http://www.yenko.net/attachments/371161-tn_1970SurvivorZ28020.JPG

[Charley Lillard]

When Jason takes more pics I will post more. Jason said there is even a big sticker still on the diff. They also noticed the three letter engine designation sticker that goes on the valve cover laying on the crossmember. Exhaust is supposed to look like new. Arrgh...I need a drink........

[JAD]

Now that is what I call a "Survivor".

[Stefano]

Congrats Charley!

For those viewing the pictures; the Z28 is very dusty. Inside and out. We didn't even clean any of the dust off.

However, It has regrettably had two bolts turned on it and that was for removal of the original battery years ago.

This is the Most Original Car I have ever seen! All three brothers confirmed, on video that all the tires still have original air in them.

The window crank knobs haven't even yellowed http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

The exhaust is just as incredible as the rest of the Z28.

Very few people had ever seen this Camaro.

Thanks to all who helped with this Mission.

[shor]

wow again.............
i wouldnt even clean it.
just get her into your barn and leave her AS IS!
wow!

[70 Forest Green Zee]

Cool car, Chuckles http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Haven't done much research on it, but haven't seen many TH400 std. interior 70s.

Mine's the same (black console shift plate, no bright trim on the lower dash panels), but has the woodgrain around the dash gauges.

Makes me further lean to my belief that mine is a re-bodied 79 Berlinetta http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[ORIGLS6]

Detail pix PLEASE. This car can speak volumes.

I'd love to see pics of the original oil filter, emission label and tire pressure label on the door (or glove box), among other things.

That door ding is the whole story behind this car being what it is 35 years later. To put it in perspective the war in Vietnam was still going on when it went into hibernation.

[CamarosRus]

Charley, Your certainly not going to take any advice from me......

There are people at the www.nastyz28.com (http://www.nastyz28.com) site such as Jack Seymour, Jeff Betz, Mike Steitz, Dennis Thomas, Ben Arena, and many others who will very much be interested in all the details, pictures, etc

As I look at the lug nuts, center caps, trim rings, and many other pieces, I very much would like to see this in person.

You should consider having Jack Seymour take charge of "CLEANING" this car.

I hope in my lifetime, YOU unearth that 1970 L-78/T-400 I'm waiting for.

Sincerely, Chuck Sharin

-----Well,,,First, lets get going and spot in that nick!.........Just kidding, just kidding. Why am I not surprised that this Camaro is a Chicago area car??? From my ten years living in Chicagoland, as immersed in old cars as anyone could be, I seemed to notice a relatively high number of low-mile stored cars. I always attributed it to the ferocious winters not DOOR NICKS as in this case.

what is the build date? I assume a Norwood car?

Also NOTE the rear stripes ending BEFORE the window trim ... :

Charley, great car, I need to see it.

I've got bad news, the 1970 license plate has my initials on it "TG" I'm afraid the car needs to be shipped to Austin immediately. I'll race you for pinks with my new '70 automatic Z.

Seriously, I love it and I'm learning lots from the engine pictures.

I think one of the Camaros Chris P has came from the same dealer.

[Verne_Frantz]

Congrats Chill. I like to see the new interest in Un-Restored, original cars. Not only are they a rare piece of history that's been "preserved", they are the "benchmarks" for other cars to be restored by. Their intrinsic value for the future of the hobby is far greater than their current market value. Dollars can not quantify the true value of a car like that..... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif

[Charley Lillard]

I talked briefly with Norman today. He worked in St Charles and was driving a 69 Impala Custom to work and would drive by Fencl-Tufo every day. He had driven a friends 70 Z and liked it. One4 day as he is driving home from work he sees this car on the lot and traded in his Impala on it. The inside rear view mirror is missng and Norman said it was like that when he got it and he never bothered to go back and bug them about it. There is a area behind the right rear wheel that has been painted on but Norman said he had never noticed it and he never painted on it. Jason said it is lacquer so we are guessing it was done at the factory or at the dealer before Norman bought it.

Charlie, Congratulations can't wait to see the rest of the pictures.

[Kim_Howie]

They don't get any better than this. Great find. Known Jason 20 years, bought my first 69z from him. Just a kid then. Congrates Chas. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

[Charley Lillard]

The hard part is convincing Jason that it is MY car and not his car. This will be the first time a survivor hits his place and then leaves. He knows cars but his photo emailing skills suck. But he is working on it.

[Dave Rifkin]

So is the car going to get any exercise or is it going to stay as is? It would be a shame not to drive it a little bit.

[Stefano]

Norm read a magazine Article, in which we were mentioned. He contacted us, because of that article. He decided to sell the Camaro since his research had shown that an original owner Survivor Camaro, might be a desirable and collectable Camaro.

He had called several appraisal sources prior. We were also contaced about the Camaro from one of those companies.

His quote to me regarding selling the Camaro was that, he was getting older and that you never know what might happen to him or the Camaro. He wanted to make certain that it went to a good home.

[TimG]

Charley, are you going to remove the undercoating? If so, please describe the procedure to do this. I've got the same issue on a car and I'm gearing up for this as a winter project. I know that it is beautiful underneath the undercoating.

[Charley Lillard]

No. The undercoating is part of the history of the car. No reason to tamper with it. If the car had been messed with I would do it but this thing deserves to be left alone.

I have removed undercoating on other cars by using white gas, kerosene, WD40 etc to soften it up and then a high pressure steam cleaner. Any petroleum distillate will soften it.

[TimG]

OK, I agree with that, but don't you think that the "TG" on that 1970 plate means it needs to come to Austin to live..... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif

[firstgenaddict]

Simply awesome... can't wait to see the details... are you gonna bottle the original air for reuse or to sell on Ebay?

[DarrenX33]

Charley! Your car is 61 VINs from mine!

I'm 511596. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

Let's see photos of the big 5 on the VIN stamped motor and tranny.. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif

[Charley Lillard]

Notice there is still paint on the door latch grease. And all the undercoating on the smog pump, fuel pump, valve cover. One pics shows the stainless trim where the hood fender and door meet. The hood stainless hits the fender stainless. The fender should have been shimmed out more.

[firstgenaddict]

That is the coolest freaking thing I have seen in quite a while! I could study the photos for hours...
NICE SCORE Charlie!!!

[Mr70]

Look how the wiper fluid jar hasn't yellowed at all.
If that isn't another testament to how little sunlight/engine compt. heat this car has never seen,I don't know what is.
Could somebody <u>PLEASE</u> take a close up picture of the CW p/s mounted ID tag on this TH400..

[Jacsey 70Z]

Ya looks like Zebart had a field day, I like the way the stripes wrap at latch area.
Very nice

The 50k mile 69 Z we are doing now still had the painted grease deep in the door latch assems when I was cleaning them I realized the latches came greased with the white lithium bar grease and the grease was simply painted over, makes sense...


Is there any over spray on the valve cover edges?

[Jacsey 70Z]

Kind of reminds me a lot of Benny's car.

[Steve Shauger]

Under coating even reached the booster. My 69 camaro has a lot as well, they even hit the washer bottle and smog pump on my car.

Yes it does remind me of Benny's...

Hey that is the 2nd or third survivor rad tag I have seen that has had white paint on the letter code... I see that they must have used a pad stamp as you can see where the corner of the stamp hit on the left top. Had to have been to highlight the code for easier ID on the line.

[Ls6 Ragtop]

I see the same highlighting of white paint on my PA radiator tag. Like mine, looks like they highlighted these tags with a roller of some sort. Really cool car Charley.

[Postsedan]

How are you ever going to drain that original virgin oil and change the oil filter? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Dan.

[firstgenaddict]

You may be able to get most of it out through the dipstick hole using a section of copper tubing which will fit through the dip stick hole... I would use the dipstick hole trick first then refill with oil, circulate fresh oil by pulling dist and priming (which will put it through the filter) then pull it out through the dip stick again... that should pretty well flush it.

[Charley Lillard]

I don't see any need to change the oil at this point. I spoke to Norman some more today. He is 69 years old and still lives in the house his Dad built in 1939. The car that gave the Z28 the door ding was a 66 4 door Chevelle that he bought for his Dad at Brigance. The girl that dinged it was Doris Yozul, not sure on the spelling.

[Charley Lillard]

wash the car once or twice and you would make sure this was gone. http://www.yenko.net/attachments/371672-tn_HPIM0637.JPG

Great score. Congrats! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif In order to get a complete handle on the history of your sweet Z, http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif I would recommend gettng a statement from Doris Y. as to what was going thru her head when she dinged the car. Might provide some interesting insight. (BTW, Doris is a HERO!!!!!!!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif)

You should send a box of chocolates to miss Yozul..

Was it indeed Ziebart that actually applied the undercoating?..I don't see any signs of their trademark yellow Ziebart plugs in the jamb areas.
If not them,did F-T undercoat it and what was the charge?

Post factory applied undercoating for sure. A lot of cars had it done.

Would it be unusual for an LA built car to be sold new in Chicago? Any rhyme or reason for some Chicago cars being Norwood cars and others being LA cars. Was it just supply and demand? Norwood is sure closer to Chicago than LA.

[ORIGLS6]

Same here D. I removed it a few years ago and the floor pans are perfect. Even the ends of the bolts holding the seat belts ae bright and shiny.
I think the charge to undercoat my car at the dealership was $23.50. And I agree, that looks like dealer applied undercoat.

I'm guessing the white mark was to know where to put the weight. http://www.yenko.net/attachments/372001-tn_Picture562.jpg

Very interesting.. Doesn't seem to have the large font 5 like I'd expect to see from a LA car.. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif

Great pics Charley!

Charley look inside the drivers side door jamb behind the door hinges for the
B-P-T stamps on the cowl panel. I am not sure if LA stamped them there like Norwood.

The 73 Z28 that I bought new at Fencl Tufo had the same free oil change coupon book, signed by my salesman http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Darren, I don't think the large font "5" appeared until later production. In other words, they had not yet broken or lost the correct sized "5". http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Charley,

Is there insulation on the under side of the hood??

Also do you have a photo of the canister and line clip on the drivers inner fender???

Thanks

It was sold brand new in Illinois,so it won't have the EEC NA-9 details you are referring to.
1970 Vehicles that <u>sold</u> brand new in the state of Calif. had to be fitted for that,not just assembled there.
