Default Re: '69 X77 302DZ Camaro Barn Find

[ QUOTE ]
LOL; this is what I'm talking about:

EBay Link

Don't use "Barn Find", and instead it's barnyard find... Total mess.

Though, I should edit my original statement regarding the difference between barn find and barnyard find to include "clean it up to a respectable and patina'ed level" in addition to enjoyable mechanical refreshment.

You can't polish a turd.

That car you provided the link to, if you consider that a "barn find" then this DZ car I have is a "Gem". My car could be driveable, but I wouldn't even think about it until I check everything over due to the rareness of this find. To just fire it up and try to drive it, in my books would be irresponsible to what the car actually is. So with reference to your "being driven hard and put away wet", this is not the case. I do appreciate your input though. It's funny, I always wanted a '60s Camaro. I never thought that my very first Camaro would be a DZ car. I should go buy a lottery ticket.

If it ain't a turd to begin with, polishing it will be a breeze.
