If anybody wants to know about the car please let me know. Its got tons of potential and will make a neat car when completed. I only want to sell it because the body shop that is working on it has not done much to it since October and I am getting the bug to drive a Camaro during the summer.

I am just asking for my own curiosity. Why are there dashes instead of a paint code on the cowl tag? Thanks. Good luck.

Mark, thank you for posting pictures of the car on this site. In fact before I bought the car I asked for advise about buying the car from the people on this web site and everybody warned me against doing a project this far apart. But I kept looking at the crossram with the car and thinking I could put this car together by myself and save allot of money, well I was wrong. I have only seen a few dash-dash paint codes on camaros, my understanding is that it means the car was ordered with no stripes like the 1821 mile car on the Coast to Coast web sight. Or the car was ordered in a color that was not normally availabile for a camaro or it was delivered in primer only. Like the SS-RS camaro that World wide muscle cars had last year that was resprayed in UCLA blue.

That's correct, either no stripes or a non-standard color stripe.
Looks like a nice project. Former race car? ![]()

Its a neat car and a sure head turner when its completed... I would light a fire under the body man ass and tell him to paint my car... Its down hill from there, I know it cant be done over-night??? but this car looks like one to wait for expecially if you do indeed have a cross ram for it... To here cars with solid lifters is great, but behind the wheel of a DZ car is even better... I cant tell you how many times I take my Z out and have people come up to me and ask me to start my car just so they can hear the lifters clatter, its great... Mark

TO add fuel to the conversation when I found the car it had a date coded 309 brake master cylinder but no proportioning valve and power booster. But it had the drum brake rear end and the regular disc brake front end. It had the GM heater delete plates on the firewall but there is no dash carrier in the car, so I did not get the inner heater delete plate. I found a decent reproduction inner heater delete plate and a reproduction wood grain radio delete plate because it would not go with the rest of the car to put a radio in. Yes I do have a complete crossram for the car that I just bought from Heartbeat city awhile back because I sold the set up that came with the car thinking I could get a better one. The motor is off on the numbers though. Its a 618 block and 186 heads all cast in Feburary 1969 but it has a TO521DZ stamp on the pad with the car's complete VIN on the pad in small numbers like a LA built car but its a Norwood car with no VIN by the oil filter. I attached a picture of the motor as it came with the car. Did I understand right, that a dash-dash paint code could also mean the car was ordered with a differnt color stripe than the regular option of black or white? A couple of years ago I was talking to somebody who said that he ordered a black 1969 Z/28 camaro with silver stripes. I assumed that he got a solid black car and the dealer sprayed the stripes. Did I assume wrong?
