Quite obvious the original owner didn't initially plan to keep the car to drive it 50 years later....no power steering!

Default L-78 Camaro

The owner had to bye a car with a auto trans in it. So his wife could drive it. He told me that story himselve. Get this he had three children. all now in their 40s. They never where allowed to drive the ever. He got the fold down rear seat, so he could tell friends. There was No room in the back seat, when the seat was down! BBBenny

Picture number four. When I was detailing the car for MCACN. I found the trunk lid stopper in the corner of the trunk. The same place it was dropped 50 years ago. I now keep it in a plastic bag, in the glove box.
