Re: How many Frost Green (59) fans are out there?
Mark... I LOVE flat hood '69 Z28s! Nothing like an original peice. Enough of these fake cowl hoods! Nice car!
Our diverter valve was in trouble too. The Z28 did make a nasty popping/backfiring noise when you backed off the throttle at high speeds. Jerry MacNiesh just rebuilt the pump as a whole unit but he stressed when the motor is restored or rebuilt to then rebuild the smog pump as a hollow unit. Anyone got some shots of a Frost Green '69 Z28? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif |

Re: How many Frost Green (59) fans are out there?
As long as it is a first generation Camaro, particulary a 69, I love all the colors that were offered. I am still kicking myself in the butt for passing on a Code 59B 69Z about 6 months ago. It needed a lot of work, but it was a #'s matching Z, with a black vinyl top/black rally stripes.
Here is a picture of my Garnet Red 69Z. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...mister1/Z3.jpg |

When I considered painting mine the original Frost Green,I thought of White stripes and a White deluxe houndstooth interior which I think would have looked cool.Black carpets and white seats & doors looks awesome IMHO.Frost Green can be killer...just like ANY color on a '69 Z/28 would be. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif |

I bought my car from Kenny but it isn't the one you are thinking of. He had another low-mile original Fathom Green car for sale after I bought this one from him. My car is a mostly original, 40k mile car. The only things that I have done to it since buying it from Kenny is: removed the ZL2 hood and put a flat hood back on, added the smog system (non-functional), changed the chambered exhaust to an original type (hated the chambered), had the exhaust mainfolds done and distributor rebuilt by Jerry M., swapped out the steering wheel and radio (from AM to AM/FM).
Heres another photo. |

Houndstooth,have you considered Black? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif Nothing looks finer than a glossy-black,10-foot deep Black paint job on a '69 Camaro. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif farone, That Burnish Brown looks almost like Gray metallic from that angle.Looks like it's coming along nicely...mine was in that stage not too long ago. |
Re: How many Frost Green (59) fans are out there?
Yea I've thought about black too I just can't seen to make
up my mind.I've seen a couple of white Z's and really like the way they look but still keep thinging about Frost Green to match the tag.I'm planning on keeping it for a long while just wondering if a color change would hurt the valve? |
Re: How many Frost Green (59) fans are out there?
I would think changing a color would hurt the value..probably to the tune of 1/3rd.
I think Black w/black houndstooth would be the cats meow... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif and if you're not going to sell it,who cares as long as it makes you happy? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif |

My daughter's car is frost green '69 nova 427 L-89 four-speed motion clone. She calls it granny grocery-getter green, but wouldn't ever change it. I think it just brings back the feeling of the era with that color.
