Hey now, I just logged 100 miles on my 1970 L78 beater on Sunday going to a car show. Looks like I pulled down 12.5 mpg too! Poor car didn't like getting stuck in traffic on the way home though.

I am71 years old and forteanite to own a1969 Yenko Camaro. No amount of money will buy this car. It is my living will to go to my son, and from him to my grand dauther. So I know that it will be in the familey for quite some time. So you see not all of us are in to this for the money. We also have 4 more 69 camaros, not for sale.

I make no bones about my car being a beater. In the 12 years that I've had the car, I've put about $15k into it to keep it that way. I have also put about 8000 miles on it.
I am pretty sure that it will be the least detailed car on display at the SCR. It is also in my will to my step-son.
To each his own.
There are tons of late 2nd and early 3rd gen Camaros that can be had for cheap $.
As they say: "Don't crush 'em, restore 'em".
