Beautiful car. You say original engine, I would post photos of the vin stamp on the block, not just code stamp. But looks amazing.

Have you thought about have it certified by respected Camaro gurus? Any pics during restoration? Looks like a beautiful car, I love those wheels

The trim tag 11A can not have a X-Code, So that is an issue. I guess Kurt can chime in here...12B is earliest for a X-code. Caution sticker does not belong on the fan shroud.

That is flat wrong - this is a 1969 calendar year build.

No issue with the 11A tag date; that's November of 1969.

Ad states "...given the great condition of the body before restoration..." The reproduction dash top and non-original left door are indications that it has had some metal work.

Door weatherstrips are deteriorated, missing a rubber bumper. Looks to have been built with the special interior group so should have bright pedal trim. Also dash cluster woodgrain. Should not be a locknut under the shift knob. Spoilers were added. Booster looks like a repro to me. Master should be painted black. N66 wheels are not original to the car but look good.

Rare to see a correct [and $$] resonator/muffler system on a restoration. Style points on leaving the SS hood intact!

sorry for the confusion, realize it is a late car 1969, then the door must have the vin # on the driver door and it is not there....

Front seat bottoms look like two different make/brand covers.

And the clue to the driver's door not being original is the lack of the two locating ribs in the door jamb that started before August 1969.

One last thing: lose the "caution fan" sticker.

Pretty car; has a lot going for it.

Only thing left that I see (which is very minor) Window crank handles should have clear knobs.
Nice car and great color. This would fit in nicely with my Azure Z and RS/SS 350. :grin:

Thanks for everyones' input. I really appreciate it, a few things are quick and easy fixes for me. All the weatherstripping in the car is new so maybe it's just showing poorly in the picture. I'm pretty sure this is the original booster as well with the upside down Delco Moraine stamp, I'm pretty sure I sent that out to Steve Gregory quite some time ago. Thanks again and the fan caution sticker was not on the shroud when we delivered the car and it will be gone tomorrow!!!!!
