Thanks, Dana.

Max, my other Z is a maroon street car and I'll get started on that after finishing up the gold one.

Maroon? Isn't that the rarest 67 Z color? You are a lucky man twice over. Actually more than that, how many 67 Z's have you owned?

One of the best cars on this site, was his M Green survivor. Bad ass car...still think of that car.

Sierra Fawn is the rarest color and Madiera Maroon is the next rarest. To answer your question, I have owned 6 of these Z's and still have 2. The green one was an awesome car, but it has a good home. I'd love to still have them all but I don't have that kind of money.

Wow, I didn't know a Sierra fawn Z had been found. That's cool. Best of luck with both your restorations. I look forward to seeing the end results in the future.

Actually, no, a Sierra Fawn Z has not yet been found so that's what makes it the rarest of the 15 production colors. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Sierra fawn?? what color is that?? a light brown??

..you have me doubled in the Z count, Jon,..but I did own all 3 Z's at the same time.

..that green car was really awesome !!! I almost bit when you wanted to trade...I should..coulda... but that car belongs in a museum. ..for those who do not remember, it was radio /heater delet with factory 4:88's if I remember? And How many 67 Z's can be left with origina paint???
AWESOMEEEEEEEEEE !!

I think Jon..(and possibly Jerry M.) are the 2 Top 67 Z fan-atics in the world.

Good Luck with the two you have left !!

Can't wait to get mine done and maybe come up against your street racer some day !!! haha

Max, Sierra Fawn is a light gold or beige color.

I did have three Zs at the same time also, a gold-on-gold no option car at the same time as my current two but that was just too many projects at one time so I sold the car to a local friend. My green Z had 4.10 gears (not 4.88s). There was a feature on it in this &quot;Member's Rides&quot; section at one time but it's gone now, for some reason.
