Default Re: Ordering a new L78/L89 Camaro/Chevelle

The comment about insurance brought back memories of those days. By about '70 insurance for anything remotely close to a musclecar was tough to get and expensive. As a result they quickly depreciated. Dealers wouldn't take them in trade and they were tough to sell privately. A friend owned Yenko N615046 in the '72, took weeks to sell for a lousy $2000. I think he was paying about $400/3 months for insurance at the time. A lot of musclecars bit the dust because of it.
