Cool car in an attractive color combo. Looks like a former engine builder added some stampings to the deck....

Chevrolet absolutely knocked it out of the park when it came time to design the second generation Camaro. Such good looking car.

Kudos to Ken Parkinson.

Anyone know what is the correct shifter ball for a 70? White, Black or Chrome? Does it depend on console or non console? Notice the SS horn shroud.

With console is chrome. The shift pattern is on the console.

Without is two piece black just like the 69's had.

This is for 70 only. 71 and laters were different.

The shifter on this one is a replacement Hurst Competition Plus.

Always liked how Norwood put Z28 on the TT vs. LA built cars. Not questioning the TT. Good looking Gen 2

The reason I asked was the Shadow Grey one has a Black shift knob. It appears that it was a non console car if you look at the photo showing the shift boot and bezel.

I like it.

That yellow looks awful "bright" for Daytona Yellow.

I'd like to hear Norcam's opinion on it after reading his build thread.

I agree, however recently I have seen when people set their camera to HDR the colors will skew quite a bit in gaining contrast etc.

That was my exact thought after seeing it for 1.5 seconds. Details.

Those square plastic nuts sticking out from the valance just grab all the attention like a magnet. :crazy:

I like the steering wheel SS pad. :eek2:

any ideas what the additional stamp is on the pad?

Since there doesn't appear to be any attempt to alter the original stamp, that is, most likely, a warranty/ID stamp from an engine rebuilder for their purposes.

Looks like it sits a bit high in the rear

Certainly has a bit of rake to it and the "ss" on the steering wheel shroud should be "rs". Sharp looking car that perhaps still has the build sheet on the gas tank which would be common for a Van Nuys build Camaro.

After MECUM I'm guessing the 70 Z-28 prices are going to be revised upward.

looks like seller is a dealer out of Winter Garden FL.
Asking price is $64.9k.....

I saw some more information on the car. The muncie is out of a nova and is a m20 instead of the m21 they call it. Car has 5 leaf springs. Interior should be deluxe and is standard. Too bad someone messed up what was a neat car at one time. Those door panels will be next to impossible to replace.
