I love this car!

Sam,

That's a bummer about the X77. I am always amazed by the depth of the knowledge on this site. How can you tell?

Pretty easy but the trim tag is the big give away. There were no 12A build X code cars, Also look at the rivits.

The ad doesn't mention clone anywhere and the implication is the seller is familiar with the restoration so he should know. I guess I should stop being so surprised when this happens. When I finally get my funds together I will certainly check with you guys first. Only three college educations to go!

Also, the X77 has a ducted hood. All Camaros before January of '69 had flat hoods.
Today, all first gen cars have ducted hoods.
I have a friend in our Club the wants to give away the flat hood off his '68 because nobdy wants to buy it.
Go figure.

And spoilers.

[TMagda]

I think the hoods and spoilers were probably a popular mod even when these cars were new. My old '69 Z/28 had both when i bought it in '75 even though the serial # was under 5000. It had the long spoiler.

The green fake X-77 car was discussed before.

The white X-33 car is nice but to be picky, "The RS/Z28 DZ Carburetor is all original", no it's not.

The ZL-1's had ducted hoods in december.

[ANDY M]

Kim, not to be too picky, but the first ZL1 was delivered on Dec. 31, 1968. New Years Eve.
Very late on New Years Eve.

That's before Jan. Happy New Years
