[ QUOTE ]
SPECIAL PAINT DESIGNATION. Special paint cars were identified with a unique paint code on the firewall cowl tag. (In 1968-69, either deletion of a stripe or use of a non-standard stripe color were considered to be special paint.) 1967 special paint cars used the letter "O" instead of the normal color code. In January 1968, the letter "Z" paint code was used to denote the newly available Camaro color called British Green and notation of special order paint was changed to a dash "-". The "-" (dash) special paint code continued for the rest of the 1968 model year as well as for the entire 1969 model year.

How much are you asking for the car? Does your Camaro have the original motor and trans? Thanks.

Mark, sometimes the VIN stamping is very faint to almost nothing down on the side of the rear of the block when they were stamped. You are correct in saying that a VIN not visible or missing down there is somewhat common. I have had 2 or 3 over the years that were like this. My 69 PaceCar has the #'s down in the rear area and they were almost stamped correctly as well; They are there for my block but not perfectly

I posted the car on the Team Camaro site and offered it with another motor that I had bought for the car. The other motor is a date coded 010 block CE warranty code 302 long block with matching 186 heads and 1178 crank. Its been in storage for some time in a shop although it look like it came out of the car yesterday. I took a deposit on the other motor and crossram yesterday. I am offering the motor, rolling body shell with doors,all the glass,trunklid,all new front sheet metal,firewall heater delete plates,completly rebuilt disc brake subframe, replated brake power booster,rebuilt 309 brake master cylinder,factory 4:56 ratio 12 bolt posi rear end and many other small parts for $29,500 or offer. I can deduct parts or add parts like a rebuilt fine spline M-22 muncie and many other new parts to suite whatever your needs are and to come up with a fair price. I know not everyone is able to fly out to Southern California to see the potential this car has but I have a bunch of pictures and I will answer any questions you have. My home e-mail is [email protected] or call me 714-962-7650 thank you.... Mark Sheppard

Car is back on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2481936803
So is the axle and the engine, in separate auctions.
Don't mean to stir the pot, but I'd be remiss if didn't say: I don't like the look of that trim tag..... and no exhaust doubler plate.

The shifter hole does not appear to be cut with a torch like Z28's were.

Here is a picture of the trim tag, can you tell me what you see that is wrong? The car has the plates for the dual exhaust on the frame rails. I will get better pictures for you and Charley later this week. I had given up on selling the car and it was still in storage at the body shop but e-bay had a sale on their ads last week. At a $1.50 per ad it was too good of a deal to pass up. I took a deposit from somebody on the 12:1 compression motor and the crossram set up about 45 days ago then I never heard from the guy again. I thought if I lower the price on the car, it would be a good deal for somebody. Charley do you have plans on coming to southern California in the near future? Come take a look at the car to let everyone know if its real or not.

The fonts on the tag are not correct and there are some spacing problems.
I noticed the shifter hole, but I couldn't be sure from that pic and the console nuts look right.
This pic from the auction shows no doubler plate.


Here's the tag pic.

Mark... Take a close look at the hole for the shifter. Orig Z28 ones were cut with a torch and not a saw. I don't want us be the bearers of bad news but we might be. The exhaust plate should be welded to the frame rail and in the pic it just looks like the frame is drilled. I can put you in touch with someone in LA that could examine the car. I'd be interested in the Xram but I know you have your hands full.

I think I need to go back to the shop and take a look at the car. I feel that I am on thin ice when I say I disagree with Kurt on the trim tag because I have pictures of trim tags from the same May sequence that look very close. But I do not have an explanation for the missing plate and I will look at the shifter hole. Gee thanks for the bad news guys but it might be better now than when I dump $50,000 in the car thinking its real.
