Default Earliest known pictures of my Camaro...

Just re-discovered them!These first few were given to me by the previous owner who works at the DMV.I happened into his line registering my car when he said "I used to have a car like that..."

This one is from April '75 and we can see the D-80 spoiler,lack of a front spoiler,the incorrect header panel emblem and of course the vinyl top:



These next few were taken in April '76,looks like someone blew up the original LT-1 and stuffing in a new GM bullet.The original motor was traded for a motorcycle:

These next few were taken in May '82 when I owned it:













Those are 15x7" fronts w/235/60's and 8.5" rears w/265/50's...funny part is I still have these wheels today.

That is one sweet looking car. Love it in Orange.
The first Z28 I ever drove was a 70 1/2. It was a dark green. Man that car could fly.
Seeing yours brings back memories of it.

Man, that is just freakin' COOL! American "flower mags" on a 2nd-gen just looks so right. Wish I owned one just like it.
