Last October I inspected a 67 L78 pacer for an auction company... the car has a different car's L78 engine in it and it was dated T0413MQ... does your friends car have the original engine?

Back about 25 years ago a guy in West Chicago had 2 cars for sale I went to look at. One was a 1967 blue L78 Camaro and the other was a Green 1968 Z28 often wonder what happened to the L78

Great story! I remember those prices. In 1976 I purchased a 1969 Z24 Convertible 4 speed for $500.00. Wish I could go back in time and buy them all.
