Re: 1969 427 camaro copo?????
well i will tell ya one thing, i have been informed that there is a copo out there that is only 5 cars away from mine, when i was a kid someone told me that this car was sold with a sister car ordered with it, im not getting excited but the glockner photo seems to prove it, seems to brothers bought these to "sister cars" and kept them until i guess they got sold to different owners, the rumor has it this is true, but the cars looked almost identical, seems the photo from glockner adds more evindence to the theory maybe, who ever found it HEY thanks for being so kind in sharing that info and photo, this confirms the old sister cars theory, but on the real side who really knows right?
thank you for telling me about the macro button i did know it existed but forgot that i read about it in the manual when i bought it, i will try it again.
anybody have any input on the hammer marks next to my rear diff stamping?? is been that way for over 25 yrs so is it a mistake or what? it looks like they stamped it at the factory as one thing, found out they screwed it up and corrected it?? but to correct it they had to do it before they date stamped it, because if they date stamped it then "BE" stamped it then they would be to close together right???
now on the red 69 Z28 this was a fun car, neighbor owned it down the road, i never drove it until i started to like my own car, which was a couple of yrs after i got it, after he found out i had a 69, we were pretty close, it was as original as my own car, he got it for 2500 bucks in 1982 or so, i found out when he brought it over to my place, i drove it alot and took it to some cruise in's and up town, i might have driven it more than him, he acted scared to drive it. let me tell ya it was a fast little small block all the way down to the 4.10 gears in the back, at least i think it had them because it really revved going down the road, the trans always whined loudy, but never went out?? hmmm are you thinking what im thinking? M22 which we didnt even know about back then, it was a very fun car, no crossram but a holley and headers and such.i have lost track of him after i went to college but i bet i could find him, i know his parents real well, i remodeled there whole house about 12-15 yrs ago. my car wasnt driven until about 84 or so might have been 83 i really havent narrowed it down, and dont feel it really necesary, but he didnt tell anyone i had it. dad told him not to tell, funny thing he never did tell?? i am going to try to get more photos, we will have bad weather tuesday and i wont be going to work on the new cape cod, so i might stay in the shop and re-take some photos, i did finally learn how to get them on the site yeah ! ! ! ! ! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] i will try the macro button and see what it does for close ups,
has anyone heard of the number "2" being offset on the 4 speeds before?, both of mine have offset, but only the number "2" ?? i will try to get a close up of it and send it in, it looks like something was wrong with the "2"?? it did it both times on the vin of my trans??? does this happen alot or what, they didnt even try to correct it?? i dont know i will look at it again.
thanks for everyones suggestions, i will keep it touch and try to answer all the question.
your helping and caring is appreciated.
