I was looking at the work order and which part of the order specifies the 427 conversion? I see lots of cool parts and some high dollar amounts but I didn't notice the specific conversion wording. And it's really odd to see a block cast in Sept 68 not get built until Mar of 69. But the date obviously lines up great with the April 69 conversion.

I didn't post that page of the work order yet showing the 427 numbers...I need to sift back thru 125 pics and get that one downsized, then posted after work later today. There's also another single spaced full page listing EVERY seal and gasket and so-on. The work order sheet I already posted was the summary page of a 3 page invoice.

Has got to be the find of the year. I always love to see it when somebody finds a rare one stashed away. Super job guys. It means, there're still out there.

Congrats Steve... As I told you privately, you wouldn't regret pulling the trigger, and your choice of resto shops couldn't be better... Hats off to Jeff C for working the deal and keeping this one of the best kept secret supercar finds ever... I know it was tough to contain my excitement the first time i heard of it's existance...I must say there was awhile there when i didn't think a deal was ever gonna be made. So glad it was... The new pics of the car look teriffic, and the paperwork is nothing short of amazing! Perhaps the coolest thing about this whole deal is the prospect of my best buddies in the hobby working together to bring this car back to life. With sCw on the job, its without question going to be a showstopper, and one of the coolest Camaros on the planet! Now if we can just talk bkh into leaving the islands and coming back to snowy PA....
