True Survivor
 
I have seen quite a few 69 Camaro survivor cars - never one this clean. This is a museum piece.

Here's another one, but with an earlier repaint. Still cool to see though:

Wish there were more pics.

Take note!!!!! Survivor cars DO NOT have fluffed engines! This means no engine repaint! SUPER NICE!

Sorry, I disagree, not what it seems:
From the ad:

"The paint is the only part of the Camaro that has been brought up to date. All the body panels are original to the car and there are no signs of rust or major body repairs."

Door gaps are horrible,and doors are not aligned. I bet the quarters were replaced-no body filler at quarter to rear pan. And top of quarter does not line up with top of door on drivers side.
Lots of stains in the interior and faded carpet.
Grill does not fit flush.
Body has surface rust under the trunk lid and in the trunk. No photos of underneath.

Now compare this original to mine. Look at my detail photos, especially under the car:
original

Hey RIch, the owner is a good friend of mine and this car was just featured in last months Muscle Car Review magazine. The pic you posted was from our recent car show and this car had tons of attention. We just went cruising last night and his car runs great.

This link has more pics and more of the history of the car, all original driveline and fully documented.

It is no wonder the 69 camaro is still so popular today. The car looks great in just about any color, wheel/tire and engine combo. GM got this one right. Even for a 307 car, this one is a beauty (no bias here LOL).

That one sexy looking Camaro! Just so clean and pure looking in it's most basic form. No balls or brawn, but, I'd take it over a bitched up big block all day long. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

Brake pedal is worn smooth on right side. 14,0000 miles? maybe 114,000 miles. Ad says it has been repainted-not a Survivor or an original.
