Sounds like a LUV story to me.

Nice car! I have owned two of these and still have one. With only 600 built, they are very rare. In my opinion they are still undervalued. Supposedly there was one built with a turbo 400 and the owner has a build sheet. We are still waiting for Charley to come through and post a copy of it.

Does your car have the elusive dual snorkle aircleaner?

Thanks, JoeG - Chevy LUV, indeed!

Mosport, here is a side view, more pics to come after I receive the car.

COPO, I am fortunate to have the dual snorkel air cleaner, with the long snorkels. The car is a Norwood-built car, with console, gauges, Power steering and power brakes. Engine and trans are original. I notice by your profile that yours is an RS car also - is it a Norwood car and what color combo?

Jeff, thanks, I am very excited, and Sue will have to learn to drive a stick first! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

PS We have an L&amp;L Barbecue opened about two miles from my house [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Mine is also a blue/black Norwood car with original drivetrain and a number of options. It is a very early car one of the first 5,000 camaros off the line and likely one of the very first L-78's built in 70. Unfortunately I don't have the elusive dual snorkle air cleaner. I may have one made as I hear they are going for $2,000. They are great sleeper cars without the flash of the Z-28 stripes. Looks like you have a nice one.

That is a nice Camaro.
There was a Dual Snorkle that just sold on Ebay this month for 535.00.Item#2421552958.I know the buyer.I'll bet he was more surprised then anyone what he had to give for it...

That is a SCORE..congrats Sam! One of my personal favorites. Quick question: I've seen 2 70 L-78's w/ those SS wheels on them now, were those a factory option on the Camaro also?

Congrats,
-Mark

Re: It's Almost Here!!
 
The questions seem to be flowing. Is the trim on the side of the red Camaro another "trim" option? Adds a nice touch.
