Thanks, Guys. I just returned from working in San Antonio and saw this post. I appreciate all the kind words.
Picked it up on Sunday and the fuel line into the carb was leaking. A little turn of the wrench stripped the threads and made the little leak a big leak. I've driven this car before and it is a kick in the pants. 6,500 comes quick with the M40 and a 4.10 gear. Hard to imagine that this car lived such an apparent sheltered life, it's in great condition with an entirely original driveline.
Any hints on where to look for a build sheet? The interior has really never been touched. I dropped the gas tank, but I guess that only works for Corvettes, right.
Torque Thrusts and traction bars? Tubes?

Tim,

Great looking Z!

If it is Norwood built I doubt you will find a build sheet in the car. If you are lucky you might find the build sheet on the list that Jody has and he will send it to you.

1970 Camaro Build Sheets

Nils, thank you. I'll check the VIN as it is a Norwood car.
I had no idea that the build sheets for some Camaros existed.

a few years back i purchased the z in the pic's, at that time it had an original POP with it and a couple pic's of the original owner who purchased the car in florida as i remember. i purchased the car from wagners who had bought the car from a gentleman in colorado. i spent the first evening after i recieved the car crawling around verifying the important drive train numbers,it had the born with drive train at that time. i have a file on the car at my home in nevada but won't be there for another 12 months, if you are interested i can round up what info i have on the car at that time and get it mailed to you. i traded the car to happydays and didn't end up keeping it for very long, i remember thinking at the time i purchased the car that it was truly a very well balanced car... especially in 1970.

Alan, amazing that you owned the car. It's good to hear that you thought it was a good car. I'd love any information you have, your correct on the history of who owned the car, it came from Happy Days to Austin in early 2005.
