69 Yenko Camaro Rallye Green

[farone]

WHAT ALOT OF PEOPLE FAIL TO REALIZE, IS THAT THIS CAR WAS RESTORED NINE YEARS AGO... IT HAS GONE THRU A FEW OWNERS SINCE IT WAS DONE, AND PROBABLY NOT HAD THE CARE THAT IT SHOULD HAVE. IT IS REALLY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN THE NATURAL FINISHES ON METAL PARTS. (I GUESS THEY COULD HAVE USED OVER THE COUNTER METRIC BOLTS, AND HELP PACK FASTENERS LIKE I HAVE SEEN ON OTHER SO CALLED HIGH END RESTORATIONS) IT IS STILL FAR AHEAD OF WHAT ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE DOING TODAY.... CRY ABOUT A PIECE OF CLOTH TAPE ON THE COWL INDUCTION SEAL, PEOPLE STILL DON'T KNOW THAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THERE EVEN NOW. AND AGAIN THAT WAS NINE YEARS AGO. NOW THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN, GOODMARK SELLS ONE WITH TAPE, IT'S NOW CORRECT, AND WE'LL ACCEPT IT, BUT ITS THE WRONG TAPE. AGAIN NINE YEARS AGO!!! THE GUYS THAT DID THIS CAR ARE SECOND TO NONE, AND ARE IN IT FOR THE LOVE OF THE CARS AND THE HOBBY, NOT JUST TO LINE THEIR POCKETS, UNLIKE SOME PEOPLE OUT THERE. THE CAR IS A GREAT CAR, AND WHO WOULDN'T WANT IT IN THEIR GARAGE. I KNOW THAT I WOULDN'T MIND HAVING IT, EVEN THOUGH IT MIGHT NEED A LITTLE SPANKING UP.

Not just a gold spinner, but Best of Show at Vettefest. I was looking at this website last night and found these pics by accident, pretty cool site if you've never been there before. The sound clips are cool too! Let the intro load for a neat photo of this car... you'll probably recognize more than a "few" other cars on that website too...

Bob, here is the picture I promised. To get the tape to show up I fiddled with the picture with Photoshop but you can see the correct texture and finish. It is a really nice repro from Goodmark..............RatPack.............

Somewhere there was a nitpicker babbling about the tape on the cowl seal. I went upstairs in my barn and found 5 cowl seals. Four are orig. and have the tape and one is repo and has no tape.
