If you have ever seen his Rod Shop and the cars in it, the NEEDS NOTHING applies to all of them. Jeff when will your JL8 be on the road again?

I have no idea when it will be done. I figure a year at the minimum if I can find the funds to funnel into it. I took out a loan to buy the 68 LT1 car because I wanted something I could drive now.

Mine isn't an RS though.

[DarrenX33]

You have a PM.

Must be correctly and freshly restored with good paper. Prefer original drivetrain and prefer Rally Green, Hugger Orange or Black body paint. Must be a "needs nothing" car with complete documentation.


I've got a #2 condition Rallye Green 4spd '69 COPO Camaro that I'd consider trading, plus some cake...

How 'bout it, Shauger or Darren...let's make a deal

Did someone say Copo?



Best of both worlds. Originally Rallye Green and just restored to Hugger Orange with full GM Canada documents. And oh yea...JeffH, this ones got paint! lol (see more on my web site at http://www.x33d80.com/home.htm

[Jeff H]

Sure, rub it in. Mine should have paint pretty soon. I just need to find some money because I know there isn't much in my bank account.

Hiya Jeff,

Nice to see you and glad you at least had the 68 out for a few runs. I should have this one completed in a week or two and installed most of the RS headlamps earlier today. Keep me updated as to when you get your car splashed and hopefully the cash rolls in for you to get her finished up. We all know they can be expensive.

Did you say that you have $75k+ into the resto, but the car was originally Rallye Green?

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

BTW; I only ask to ensure I was reading your post correctly, can't go wrong with either color

[hugger_69]

Yes you read correct. The actual amount invested into my Z28 over the last 20 months is 75K US or about 100K Canadian. It is an X33D80 Rallye Green Z/28 with a GM Canada Build Sheet and Protecto Plate. I refitted the entire car with all new parts in and out. When it came to painting the car on May 5th, I had Rallye Green on the mixing Table and said screw it at the last minute...paint it orange with black stripes. That was my heart telling me to paint it a color I liked rather than what the build sheet showed, and thats when I decided to go Crossram M22 rather than install the freshened #'s 302 and M21. Thats another reason I am into this so fat. The second DZ drive line was another 15K. Either way...it was built as a keeper and will most likely stay in the family for years to come. I added the RS option to it and finished the front lights yesterday. I understand why LV wants an RS Z/28. They are purely a sexy looking ride!
