If i was to buy this car. I would want to know all the info available about it, so i could make an informed decision. Just as anyone would buying a house or anything else. William is just giving knowledgable info that a buyer spending that kind of money should know. Roger

I wish I could have been there when these cars roamed the streets. Looks plain jane till you pull up next to it. No wonder not many have the original drivetrain, they were always provoked to race someone - you know it. Plain Jane camaros on roids. Nice car.

Lets face it, the Vin makes these cars valuable. You may get more dough for the quality of restoration, but these cars are all about the magic 69 built.
Yu could put a small block in it and probably sell it for 500K!!! |

I agree, Stuey...there's no reason these cars shouldn't be closer to Hemi 'Vert prices...

I find that trivial, but that's me. If the car sells I would love to see the new owner ask him to tear down the car to verify originality. Rick H. |

These cars are about the mystique of only 69 built, that is very special in my mind. Think about it, as far as camaros, these cars have there own set of rules and values.
The correct hose clamp date means a pile of poop for these cars, its about the VIN. Cool car, hope he sells it for 1.25 mil. |

[/ QUOTE ] Heck I was around when they were new and clearly recall prowling the lot at Dale Chev in 1969. It is probably difficult for those new to the hobby to believe but as recently as 20 years ago these cars were no big deal. Having already admitted to leaving a relatively intact Olympic gold Yenko in a junkyard here's another flashback for you. Circa '82-'83 a friend calls. There is a '69 Camaro parked outside Peach's Auto Service on Milwaukees' south side. It is on a battery charger so the hood is up. The car is a beater, nothing special but has a bb heater box. This gets his attention as there are no SS emblems on it so he copies the VIN: 124379N613633. It was some college kid's beater that probably could have been had for a song. Like I said, at that time they were no big deal.
