Default UPDATE...12/8/1968 Flashback

Okay Darren, here's the gospel truth on the Yellow car. Yea, I'm still in shock too! So, here's the chapter that Bob just told me......(someone, turn up my oxygen valve)

<span style="font-style: italic">&quot;Jeff, over the weekend I got the rest of my pictures that were at my ex's house. My oldest daughter understood the importance of these pics and knew they were mine. There were a lot of pics from my teen years with car,motorcycle,party and racing pics. The last post on my Birthday thread stated how that vintage pic was priceless. The enclosed scan of the 69 Camaro is truly priceless. They were taken at the same time as the 1st pic you showed. I've always known but didn't have the pics to back it up the fact that your car was ordered with the aluminum heads L-89 option.Now we have those pics to share. Its one of 311 L-89 Camaros ,but i've always heard maybe <span style="font-weight: bold">1 of 14 L89's with an auto trans</span>. That engine was pulled and sat on the parts department floor and as far as I remember was parted out. Well , you're probably sitting there shocked and taking oxygen by now,so take a deep breath and let it all sink in . I'll be talking to you....Bob</span>

WoW! These are priceless as well. An L-89 removed, put on the dealers floor.

Great car!

I took the liberty to &quot;restore&quot; the car, well just the pictures.



This one didn't have that much yellow in it to enhance.

Awesome pictures - look at the orange overspray on the exhaust manifolds - with the aluminum heads. Did they mask the heads.....?
