The entire car looks great. What I find extremely refreshing is no ducted hood, no spoilers & no rally wheels. Nicely done. Thank you for sharing....Joe

All cars are pretty much 1 of 1.

I always found it curious that Chevrolet decided to make red stripes the default for this color.

----If this is the same Camaro (and I cant imagine there are 2), I met the guy who had the car restored at an auction in Monterey. He sold it that weekend for great money for the timeframe. I believe that he used to come on this sight, as well.. Cant remember his name at the moment, but I think Charley would remember him as I believe they are from the same general area...….Bill S

Years ago I asked Charley if he knew of a good L78 rag I could buy. He turned me on to this car which he owned in the late 80s I believe. After I got the car he told me it should have red stripes. It only took 15 years or so to get it done. I'll post more pics this weekend.

Phil your persistence paid off, because it look absolutely stunning. That stripe contrast sets it off. Keep the pics coming, and a big congratulations!!

Somewhere I have a pic of when a ball joint snapped as I was backing out of my driveway I think the day after I drove it about 60 home after buying it. I put alot of miles on that car.
