No $hit - is this a real car? Sold @ Palmetto Chevy in Conway, SC. POP looks ok to me....

Wow. I'm going to be thinking about this one....

Like you said Tony... wow!

Good luck to ya if you pursue it.

Charley Lillard 02-16-2019 10:23 AM

He blacks out the last two digits of the vin on the NCRS letter, dash vin and the protecto plate but forgot the vin punched holes in the warrant booklet. :-)

JRSully 02-16-2019 12:01 PM

Is that the orig eng pictured or not.?

X66 714 02-16-2019 12:06 PM

I don't think he indicates anywhere that he has the born with engine for it. Just a picture of one on a skid....or did I miss something....Joe

cook_dw 02-16-2019 12:42 PM

Temptation is great with this one.

DW31S 02-16-2019 01:37 PM

I see nothing in description about ANY of the original drivetrain. Ex-Race Car? Kinda surprised a car this rare hasn't surfaced or been discussed before now. The seller's eBay "handle" and amount of transactions is a little puzzling, too.....

Jonesy 02-16-2019 02:06 PM

That dash pad :dunno:

Look at the location of car. I’m not saying there is a link (Buddy) but it would definitely need to be inspected.

Last digit's actually a 6 = 124678N416006

Dang, you are right. It looked like a 5. Now I see it. :ooo:

scuncio 02-16-2019 02:51 PM

I’m assuming the original engine is long gone but it doesn’t bother me.

I’m throwing a bid on it.

With that location I'd for sure be asking for lots of opinions, and use a broker or pick the car up in person.

Seller canceled my bid and ended the auction.

:hmmm: :D

resto4u 02-19-2019 01:23 AM

this seller sells many cars on ebay, and has other ebay names. nhra** I do not remember his other names. but caution would be advised.

scuncio 02-19-2019 01:40 AM

Yes!! Thought it was the same guy, and googled the phone number, and literally dozens of ads popped up in the search results.

firstgenaddict 02-27-2019 12:39 AM

I had heard about this car... never seen photos, however knew there was a Gold MT coded 68 convert in the south, I had confirmation on the warranty book with the pin punched vin. My recollection was the car was in the western AL area, west of Demopolis near Eutaw but Mississippi might as well be western AL.

scuncio 04-15-2019 03:06 AM

Now being flipped for $90k....

Same seller, different eBay name.........Same pictures, same location, same unique font in the ads and even most of the same context in the ad.

WILMASBOYL78 04-15-2019 12:48 PM

68 l89...
 
I don't understand the engine picture of what looks like a real L89 motor...how does that relate to this car?? It isn't mentioned in the description...??

If you were going to spend all the $$$ for a high horse custom engine and 5 spd, why not just put the correct style drive line back in the car..??

No wonder the price went up. He added those sweet Mastercraft tires.

scuncio 09-14-2019 02:57 AM

The Mastercraft tires seem to find their way on cars right before they are sold....

This one has been relisted in the link below - same price.

It's back in the link below, now sporting an interesting wheel choice of Centerlines up front, and rallys out back. Just a nice set of period TTs and Goodyear bias plies would do wonders for the visual appeal.

Says the only 68 L89 Convertible known to exist...
I am pretty sure there is a documented Cordovan Maroon with white interior 68 Camaro L89 with IIRC 2.73 gears which was purchased new in NC somewhere near Raleigh?

Relisted in the link below for $90k:

Interesting car, no proof it's an L89 though?

scuncio 01-22-2022 04:24 PM

Pretty sure it had a protectoplate with the correct L89 engine suffix code.

Pro Stock John 01-22-2022 08:48 PM

Oh badass. Guy says he's including an L89 engine, I'm surprised nobody has try to make a deal and shift this car back to being more original.

----An L89 engine or THE original L89 engine! That is the question.....Bill S

Pro Stock John 01-22-2022 10:27 PM

Seems like there are enough experts and collectors that it's suprising none of them have made a run at this car. I speculate the owner is part of the reason.

scuncio 02-19-2022 05:24 PM

Relisted again for $90k. If it gets any cheaper I may make a run at it, awesome car.

Feels like you should follow up. Hopefully some guys on here can help verify the car with/for you.

"Seems like there are enough experts and collectors that it's suprising none of them have made a run at this car. I speculate the owner is part of the reason."
There are plenty of people that would make a deal with the devil if there was profit to be made on a car . So that tells me its not the owner, but the car. L89 real convert for 89K OBO, please.....you can't even buy a z28 driver for that anymore

1972convss454 02-20-2022 10:02 PM

This guy is only about 45 min from me. He always has something interesting to sell.
