I went to look at a '68 Camaro with a transplanted '68 L-78 from a Chevelle. ALL the GOOD parts were still on the engine and the car was a RS with tilt, gauges,custom interior, etc. Original SB car with a TH350 and a 10 bolt. Body was saveable, but not 'pretty'. (I had visions of doing a '68 version of a B/M car.
![]() He split the engine from the body and listed it on e-bay. The engine with ALL the correct dated components (including the OE dated plug wires!) sold for $7200, and the buyer came to pick it up. The rolling car sans engine brought another $7k. Turns out it was also a "- -" paint car that looked to be Grecian Green, but was just a bit lighter. I still have pictures of the car and they pop up on the computer every so often to remind me. Off in the distance I can hear Ron White and Jeff Dunham talking about me. ![]()

Talked to my mother last night, and she reminded me that she tried to give me her 64 impala ss 327 when i turned 16, but i thought it looked like an old lady car, so i got a 1971 capri as my first car!! good choice!

I sold one of the original eight T/A Radial Tirebirds in 1980. I was using it to drive to work and I broke my left leg. I couldn't drive a stick for months. So, I sold it for $2,200.00 and bought an automatic Firebird Esprit.
Canepa Design in L.A. has one for sale now. Asking Price is $750,000.00
