69 Camaro Dust For Sale
 
I have seen some cars that are pretty far gone - but this one takes the cake for me.

It doesnt look like much more than dust - god only knows what would be left if you tried to move it.

Starting bid is too high. What is a wheel with a red line worth?

I missed the statement that the wheels/tires are available separate from the auction. WAFJ.

----I like two things! 1: the sheet metal screw right thru the trim tag, and 2: The bud light can that appears to be near perfect condition........Bill S

You guys are a tough crowd. If it was a ZL1 it would be very restorable. It's in alot better shape than the 71 Hemi Cuda convert that is coming to auction.

Wow that was a pretty car when it was new. I hope someone saves it. They are all savable. Just depends on your skill set and pocket depth.

You know, with what you guys said about this car, gave me an idea. Ever watch the Food Network show Restaurant Impossible? Why not do a Restoration Impossible show?? Candidate number one with this car......

Doesn't appear to be an original BB car though.

The guy probably knew he wasn't gonna do anything with the car, took the trim tag off and kept it in the bottom of his sock draw for the past 20 years LOL!!!

As far as making any money restoring it and selling it, not in your wildest dreams. Anyone that restores a car like this from this condition is doing it because <span style="text-decoration: underline">that</span> is the car that they have always wanted and price is not an issue. If it were a ZL1 would it be restorable, yes -Yenko, maybe -COPO, possibly -L89 and lower HP cars, the trim and vin tags in a frame on the wall would be the most valuable pieces.

Small block AC box?

Good eye on the AC box

Re: 69 Camaro Dust For Sale
 
Small block A/C box? That would mean the tag was swapped on to the car. Is that a repro rivet on the left side?

Same seller has this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet...=item460807f568

The 67 includes &quot;factory untouched (maybe center gears) 12 bolt rear end with 4 leaf springs&quot;.

Re: 69 Camaro Dust For Sale
 
I gotta admit... looking at it closer, it does look like a tag was installed onto the body.

With the Z28, it looks to me like the cowl is much more rusted than the trim tag. If exposed to the same elements, I would think that the trim tag would be a little more rusted. I smell fish.

Also, why wouldn't the seller go to the trouble to remove one screw so they can show the rest of the body tag info? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

Aluminum tag rusting ?

The 396 fender emblem is suspect to me. Looks very shiny and I really doubt it would have survived the impact on that fender like it did. Looks like he took a new one, snapped it in two and put it on.

Re: 69 Camaro Dust For Sale
 
The area on the fender behind where the 9 would be located looks to have a pattern from a solid circle, like a 0, no opening to match the 9. 307 car?

PeteLeathersac 09-27-2012 05:24 PM

Re: 69 Camaro Dust For Sale
 
If emblems and TT have been added to a 307 car, is the tail panel blackening recent too?
Considering all and no Vin available, does the obscured TT Body # seem too convenient?

WOW good spot!

Also the black on the tail panel is super nice compared to the paint on the rest of the car. The black would have rust stains on it in certain places from where the rain has run down it all of these years. Also look at the screw holding the clip on the cowl tag. The screw head has fresh screwdriver marks on the inside where it was either screwed in or taken off at some point recently.

Brain fart, sorry. I must have been thinking Mopar fender tag or something.

This is the same guy who tried selling the orange 69 L89 Berger Camaro a few years back.
