Yeah, but you got to play round with one very Kool Camaro, while you were the caretaker : )

IMHO Scott's car is the best '70 L78 on the planet. Saw it at MCACN, it is jewelry.

No sweat if the new owner doesn't want the paperwork. Won't change my day. When he goes to sell someday, it can only help him,

Re: 1970 L78 Camaro
 

Thank you for the compliments on my car guys! It's nice to hear from others who appreciate it :beers:

Re: 1970 L78 Camaro
 

How much for the paperwork? The new owner of this car obviously has no intentions of ever selling it or just does not care about the cars pedigree or he feels like he is being extorted; I have pictures of the VIN stamp on this engine somewhere and if I remember correctly the engine was stamped on the front of the block in front of the RGT cylinder head and not on the rough casting on the back like every other Norwood 375 car I have ever looked at with original engine. Personally; I think the buyer brought himself a real nice car.

BTW, I agree that Scotts (MN 70L78) 70 L78 Camaro is one of the nicest 375 cars on the Planet. Come to think of it there are only 4 maybe 5 of these cars that are even restored. Hell I only think there are 25-30 70 L78’s that we know of and out of that only a couple of them still have their the Born With drive train.

Scott's car is showroom new, looks great!

My 19070 L78 Camaro has the born with engine...I tore the drive shaft in half and broke my tranny case, so I had to replace the case, tail housing, &amp; main shaft...the rest is original...LoL
Still has the original spare in the trunk, most of the original paint(with dealer optioned Z stripes), &amp; I have the original bellhousing, distributor, clutch fan up in the garage.

Still has the original 4:10 rear, although I did look into a Motion overdrive, but never followed through... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

Did the 70 Camaro's have the roof rail trim?
