Default Re: Wanted 1969 Camaro Z/28 in Code 10 / 40 / 76 Color

Here are some pictures of the car I was talking about. I bought it today after a close inspection and it truly is a beautiful car inside and out. Price was a bit fat but no regrets at all as the car can't be built for anywhere close to what was paid for it. It has quite a bit of paper work with the car including the original manual, warranty paper, and a ton of receipts. It received an intensive body on resto performed back in 1984 through 86. All GM parts throughout and over 50K spent on the restoration back in the 80's. That was truly tons back then. It does not have a protect-o-plate as was originally thought, but that does not worry me after viewing the car and its parts list. The car has total eye appeal and it's as fresh looking now as it was when restored 20 years ago. Guy I bought it from is a local collector and a really great guy. He has owned it for 14 years now. A really good friend of mine rebuilt the entire drive line and knows the car and its owners dating back 24 years. I will also be calling the owner who restored the car to see if he has the POP plate. It's not certain that it is a Canadian car or not, but I will run the VIN with GM in case it is. If the documents work out when checked, that will be a bonus. In either case, I bought the car regardless of paper strictly due to how nice this car is. It's definitely a keeper and I hope to have it for its next 36 years.









This will end up being my driver car as I restore another 69 car during the next couple years. I may then rotisserize this car and do the underside which by the way is in mint original condition with all metal intact. More information regarding this recent purchase is posted on my web site at http://www.x33d80.com/home.htm
