I wish I still had the car. It was as plain as they came.
As for the Camaro Driveaway. I am still researching it.

I think John Z was explaining that in another thread but I can't remember which site. I don't want to post the wrong information so I'll see if I can find it.

Found the thread on Nastyz28.com regarding the driveaway. This is quoted from Kurt S.

From JohnZ:
"Driveaways" were fairly common in those days - usually organized by the Zone Sales guys; groups of dealers (10, 20 or more) would order cars, and the Zone would make an event out of it, with the dealers picking up the cars all at once at the plant and driving them home. We had a "driveaway" row in the yard where the cars would be accumulated, and each car would get dealer-prepped and filled with gas before the event, which usually included a plant tour and sometimes a catered meal, tents, etc.
