Neat project with a POP from Creamons Chevrolet in Eustis, FL (that also has a stamp from Gates Chevrolet in IN...very weird)

Bidding is already up to $33k - will be watching this one.

My 69 has a 03D tag and engine built on my dad’s birthday. This 68 is a 03C. Engine built on my dad’s birthday. I need to ignore signs like that!!

Unbeknownst to me when I bought it, but my '66 Chevelle SS chassis was assembled on my birthday. It's possible the car was entirely built and finished on that day.

When I got the Canadian docs on my '70 Chevelle SS, it was built the day before and shipped on my birthday, which is also the month before I graduated from HS. I consider it my belated HS gift...

Took a lot longer than that to build a car!
It took about two days (four shifts) for a body to go through the Fisher Body system, and another day and a half (three shifts) to go through the Chevrolet system.

Kurt, You just took all the fun out of this thread.......

I've never looked at the frame on the '70 to see if it has a build date stamp to compare to the docs. Now I'm curious as to the time spread. Seems this was a much slower process than what I experienced at the ford plant.

I just read the ad and the car is in the process of a frame off restoration. Its too bad, the interior looked nice and I might have drove it like it was. So from what I am reading the car is not in the shape the pictures show.
I called this place, north of Orlando, a couple years ago on a 70 Z they had. Between the 70 and a silver 69 Z they had, these guys were not experts on Camaros. I would be cautious buying something after they restored it. I am in Florida and better I stay south of Orlando

Gotcha, I agree, it would have been much more tempting if it were still together.
