Tim's Chevelle was very dear and special to him.....his prized possession. Tim is ok and doing well.....but is currently out of the car scene. Understandable, but sad.

I've seen several Camaro L35's with M13/MC1. But very few L78's. 1 possible 67. 1 known 69. Most M13/MC1 cars have been changed for a 4-speed over the years.

Almost as rare as the 68 TH400 floor shifter (without console). Found one of those still with the original window sticker.
Turquoise with turquoise bench and M11 auto floor shifter. Owner said it was weird - and changed it to red, black int, 4-speed, console. Just like any other Camaro now.....

Here's part of one that was on ebay years ago. I didn't want it bad enough, evidently..... Looks a lot like a Mustang / Pinto set-up.

Thanks for posting the pic John.
