Anyone know this car?
Is that a Hemi RT next to it? For a museum Piece you would think they would get the stripes right and detail it out a little better. I still wouldnt kick it out of my Garage https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Beautiful ride. Nothing quite like an RS/Z. Speaking of Hemis, I was at lunch yesterday and some hippie looking guy (no offense, just painting a picture) with his Grizzly Adams buddy in the passenger seat, pulled up in a 68 Hemi Charger, totally original. Not restored, just flat out original red with a black vinyl top, red steelies with dog dish hubcaps. Man, I was just drooling.

Re: Anyone know this car?
While I am no Z/28 expert I can't see anything wrong with that car. What exactly are you referring to, I'd like to know so I can be more educated on first generation Z's.

Re: Anyone know this car?
Sam if you are refering to the stripe paint below the spoiler on the trunk lid it can be correct that way. I don't know the cars history and didn't see any date info in on the web page. If the car came without a spoiler and the dealer added it the stripe would be on the trunk like that one. Only if the car came with a spoiler from the factory would the stripes over the spoiler stop and not continue onto the edge of the trunk...

That store gets some pretty neat stuff.....

Re: Anyone know this car?
Amen! I'm kind of partial to this one:

Re: Anyone know this car?
Concerning the Orange Z/28 - the stripes are wrong because they should be white not black. Also, where is the antenna?

Re: Anyone know this car?
Too bad the Challenger is missing the original motor and it's A/C stuff. A/C is a nice option and the correct parts are extremely hard to get for an e-body (Cude/Challenger).

Re: Anyone know this car?
I can't believe their price on the black Z28 with "correct" DZ motor, "dealer" installed headers and no docs.
Black 69 Z28 |

[/ QUOTE ] I am Looking at the stripes on the trunk, It says its a D80 so there should not be any, There is no Antenna for radio that I can see, I believe the alternator should be lower and to left more, does it have the right bracket?(Im not positive about that)and without a black vinyl roof should the stripes be white?...This is an awesome car, somebody did a nice job on it https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif Sam |
Re: Anyone know this car?
Sam I missed the "D-80 spoilers" refrence... I wonder if it's a D80 car would be too late for chambered exhaust?
As for black stripes is there a pattern, hugger gets white stripes unless it got a black vinyl top? I also understand the space saver spare was not available with Z/28 or JL8 in '69... I also feel this is a beautiful car, the web page doesn't say any of the options listed came with the car. They are there now and listed though. My guess is it will someday be for sale and passed off as "all options came with the car". |
Re: Anyone know this car?
It's an April/May car and that's just about when the chambered exhaust was cancelled. Without more detail like the trim tag, it's tough to tell what options were added to the car. The chambered exhaust probably was added during the restoration. If it has the D80 on the trim tag then the stripes shouldn't be on the trunk lid under the spoiler. I thought that Hugger Orange cars got white stripes unless it had a black vinyl top, then it got black stripes. But I'm not 100% sure that is true. CRG should have better info on that. It's a nice car, but makes you wonder about what options are original to the car.

Re: Anyone know this car?
I believe the "D80" started showing beginning with the 05D cars.
