Absofreakenlutely Amazing!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img] Congrats Nick/Chad and kudos to Ron for being able to track down the lead so accurately. I still can't believe that that car was under 30 miles from me for the past 10 years...and, knowing what a 70-73 freak I am, that I couldn't actually 'smell' it there. Please PM me and tell me that it sold for over 15K because suicide is going to put a damper on the weekend...and that's all I think I could muster.

Congrats guys...unique 70-73's are few and far between. I'm dying to see it soon.

I said it once already but I'll say it on more time. What an AWESOME Camaro! Chad, you and I share the enjoyment of being new Camaro owners! A few questions:

1. I am surprised the the intake is not a tunnel ram set up or a high rise unit. The hood scope sure looks ike one could fit under there! Is that the original unit?
2. I was just wondering if the side view mirror had a Chevy emblem on it?

Thanks Chad!
GREAT CAR!

Here are some more photos after most of the clean up work has been completed. Several days have been spent removing a small family (dead) in the car, 30 years of grime off the undercarriage and engine compartment. Chad and I agree, it is better he own it as I would have a very hard time not doing a complete restoration on the car. Thanks to Ron for supplying some original Power Beam headlights today to replace the darkening originals.

cleaned up engine compartment. It was interesting to find metalic blue inspection markings on both hood hinges. I have never seen those before. They were only several months old when they were removed and the fiberglass hood added.

Nasty headers. Changing oil and removing the starter not for the faint of heart.

Undercarriage. Very faint evidence of green overspray on some parts of the undercarriage.

Rick
What is the Paint code on the trim tag.
Is It code 48 Forest Green,or a similar color applied later?
Also I am curious as what Papers it came with.Like factory stuff,or Harrell Speed Shop Receipts?

Rick,
Code 48 is on the tag and is original to the car. Only the white stripes were applied by the Harrell shop.
