I know for 1969 Camaros the 720 interior was the exclusive color for the Z11 convertible pace car replicas and some of the Z10 coupes - how rare was it to be used in a regular non-pace car coupe? Also how rare when combined with a 72 72 paint code?

The car has the following trim tag:

TR720 72 72 10E X11

-Thanks

There were many built not just with the Pace Cars, the yellow interior was also available at the same (short) time. While "rare" in regards to the numbers versus black or white interiors, they really don't come up with many other exterior colors except maybe white ... much like the yellow interiors are rarely in any colored car except Daytona yellow cars ...

I know of two in the Phoenix 1st Gen Camaro club, a small block and a Z28, both Huggar Orange, Orange Houndstooth, oddly enough there are 4 DY, Yellow Houndstooth interior cars here in the club.

I also had a 1969 Z/28 that was 720 and 72B that I restored and sold in 2001. Should have kept that one.

I had 2 72 72 720 Z/28s. Both X77; one had JL-8. There is another 72 B 720 RS Z/28 nearby.

Orange and yellow interiors were not unusual around here.

I say both ways... You can do small changes like wheels/tires, traction bars, intake/carb, hood like Andy's, etc... I bet you cant wait to see this one done, how can you go wrong with that drive train and color combo...

I wonder where the rest of the Z/28 is that the front clip was attached too?

could have been taken off a drag car when it was new and a one piece fiberglass front end replaced it ...

Joe - I like the way you think, sounds similar to a Motion car...one recommendation is to up the PBR to a 24 pk... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

My god. Was DY with Y interior. Now multicolor with green interior. Sounds like a rough life for that car.

400 miles away theres a ruff DY interior up for grabs. Makes one wonder if it came from this car.

There's a nice '69 Z currently on the market with 720 int. paired up with a code 10 black ext. This car comes with Canadian docs showing the same.
