Re: 1969 Camaro SS L78 X66 on E-Bay
Don't know what the final bid will be, but for that money ($55,000)it is not that bad a car. Nobody but this site would know if the pan is a repro, or the carb is a service carb or the dash carrier being incorrect. I am just not that crazy about color changes. That would bother me the most. Put a set of headers on it, some day-2 vintage tires and wheels, a Hurst Competition Plus, some Lakewood bars and ALL else is forgotten!

Re: 1969 Camaro SS L78 X66 on E-Bay
Not to pile on, but when did guys start putting the yellow paint on steering linkage nuts? They must have inspected BMW's at one point. I have seen that on a lot of Bimmers (my brother and I have owned over 40) but never on a first gen Camaro. Is this going to be the next "caution fan" sticker add on?

Re: 1969 Camaro SS L78 X66 on E-Bay
Its one thing to choose to install repro parts instead of popping for expensive NOS or original stuff, but I have to take issue with the parking brake cables. If the builder of this car routes these below the exhaust system (yes he did), you gotta wonder what else might he might have messed up.

Re: 1969 Camaro SS L78 X66 on E-Bay
At the expense of not knowing what I am talking about. I thought the parking brake cables did route below exhaust system. I also thought the 5-spoke SS wheels came on the early production Camaros and were stopped around the same time they stopped the chambered exhaust. My biggest pet peeve would be the gauge package with out the clock otherwise it looks like a nice car.

Re: 1969 Camaro SS L78 X66 on E-Bay
Here's part of your ad description. The car needs to stand up behind the words, and a '100 point car' will get picked apart like a 100 point car did when it won the 100 points! Nothing to get offended about, it's just a car.
TAKE YOUR TIME TO VIEW ALL THE PHOTOS AND PLEASE ANALYZE CAREFULLY AND ABSORB THE FINE QUALITY OF THIS AUTOMOBILE,CHECK OUT THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL ITS MIND BOGGLING . I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START SO I'LL START FROM THE FRONT. IT IS A SUPER SPORT L78 396/375HP. THE CAR HAS BEEN COMPLETELY NUT AND BOLT FRAME OFF RESTORED IN 2006 AND SHOULD BE A #1 100 POINT TRAILERED VEHICLE

Re: 1969 Camaro SS L78 X66 on E-Bay
Indeed, some folks want to point out the flaws to make themselves look good. Then there are those of us who want to make a point: Describe the car accurately! Words mean something. Dealers are great for calling cars "flawless" and "100 point" and "#1" when the car is not.
Some, myself included, may just point out a couple of obvious items that do not support the ads claims. The car is what it is - you can't make it better by making blanket claims! I have no issue or comment about the car of this thread, but this subject is coming up frequently..... Dave
