Default BE 12Bolt

1968 Camaro that is a project, I’ve had this car sitting for a couple of years now. I have no paper work to know what this car is for sure. It has RS components and Z/28 badges. Front disk, 6000 red line tach, 15in tire pressure sicker on glove box, motor and trans are missing. Car has a big block heater core. But it’s the 12 bolt that’s in the car stamped BE 0305G2
E

The date code is too hard to read and I have not pulled the cover to see what guts are inside. And with the weather in Michigan it may be months before I am able to check. There is a guy who has been asking about buying the car. I don’t know how serious he is, I guess my question would be what would be a fair price. Car appears restorable but will need major attention.

Thanks

Get the cast date code off, Im still new on finding the history on "BE" rears, I have been told they are COPO specific, My 68 had a real late 68 or real early 69 Oct. date code, I think mine was a over the counter part every thing else on my car is, but have been told it never happened also as I was warned get ready for alot of PM's

The stamping pattern lends credence to a possible restamped "BL" but could be legit BE as several 03B Yenkos have that exact dated rear. A better close-up of the casting date and pulling the rear cover would shed more light on things and help you to determine a fair price for the car if you decide to sell it.

That's what I thought about the last BE rear that popped up. But looking at pictures of real BE rears and even in Jerry's book, that's what most of the E's look like. So it could very well be an original BE rear.

Love the 68's.
Not sure if I missed it, but if you have factory installed rear springs what is the Leaf count?
Z28 as built = 4
L78 as built = 5

Cool car and should be a fun project. Toss the rear in the dumpster and install a 9",,,,


Just kidding,,

VERY neat Car.

Jim
