My new "RS"...

[Zedder]

As I mentioned earlier in the week, I finally purchased another '67 Camaro after a very long search. Ironically, I had been working on buying 4 other '67 Z's during the last 2 weeks, when I get a phone call out of the blue asking if I am interested in one that is in WI. Turns out it's a car that I have known about for around 2 years, but could never get the fellow who told me about it to put me in touch with the owner. It's been in WI its entire life and was deliverd new to Hult Chevrolet in Madison. It went to Dodgeville from there and then to Mineral Point for the past 30 years or so. The car has had a very colorful past - litterally! It started out as a Mountain Green RS Z-28 with a black vinyl top. Then it was painted "Russett Metallic" with Gold stripes and a black top, then Bolero Red with a black top, and then the current "Quazar Blue" with no top! Original options are RS, Z-28, deluxe steering wheel, interior decor pkg, HD battery, am radio, vinyl top and tinted glass. The original bill of sales shows the car sold for $3,663.40 total! I had a call from the 5th owner of the car (there was 6 total) last night and he gave me a complete owner history of the car and a ton of background info! He also offered to sell me the original radio, valve covers and vinyl top trim for $400 (seems high, don't you think?). Some time prior to him buying it in 1981, the RS headlights were swapped out for a standard grille set-up (although the RS parts came with the car way back then and are still with it today). He closed up the reverse and park lights and removed the RS rocker trim to make it look like a standard coupe and added the cowl hood. Otherwise the car is unbelievably untouched and rust free! Odo shows about 40,000 miles which the previous owner thought was original. He said that he and his buddy who owned the car next (in 1989) didn't put more than 5,000 miles on the car total. If anyone can help me resize some pics and can post them here I would appreciate it. I tried and it keeps distorting the image...Thanks!
