Continuation of 1970 z28/rs

Since I've received no responses to this sale in 2 months, I'm adding some current pictures & additional info with price change.
In no particular order here is the info:

1) the restoration included wiring from the fuse block back; by American Auto Wire.

2) I started a "day-two" theme and only got as far as adding replicated Mickey Thompson Super Scavenger headers. The collectors were built by a well known fabricator in Muncie, Indiana who builds replicas to MT specs, and the tubes began as Hooker Competition that my fabricator cut and pieced together to get them equal length with the tubes at 4 different lengths in the square collector. (the shifter reverse lockout still works)
They were then powder coated M/T Orange by Stainless Headers MFG.

3) the pictures show the headers and some relevant undercarriage shots. I have pictures of the new Legendary Upholstery that can be e-mailed.

4) I have all the original trim from when it had the factory vinyl top, a set of B.F. Goodrich radial TA's that were put on at restoration but I did not like the un-original look so it wears the Goodyears, I also have the original working AM/FM radio; as it has a replica digital tuning radio (as seen in the pic's.) There is a set of NEW Action Traction ladder bars (yellow & NIB)
The cast iron exhaust manifolds and Gardner pipes are with it as well, all will bolt up as original if headers are removed.

5) the engine was rebuilt at .030 over bore.

6) The new price is $50K

Thank you for looking at this great Camaro, Dicky:flag:

Love this Z/28. GLWS.
:biggthumpup:How does it sound with the headers?

NorCam 07-03-2018 03:16 AM

Love the car Dicky and the detail work on things like the wired header bolts.

I have to ask...who came up with the idea of that support plate for the back of the headers. I have a set of these as well and just installed them on my run stand today. I know they are heavy and thought that was a good idea for the rear hanger to relieve stress on the header bolts.

Tell me more please?

Header Support
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi Norcam, the idea was one that "my" fabricator came up with. It attaches to the two inside bolts of the collectors. (MT headers had a 4 bolt collector not 3) and then it attaches to the bottom of the transmission mount. I must admit it is slick as S**T and does not hang below the tubing for ground clearance. When everything (the header tubes) was welded together, I sent it with the headers to be powder coated as well. (only black) LOL:flag: This guy who built the Vega for me.

NorCam 07-03-2018 01:22 PM

That's awesome. Hope you don't mind but I may steal a bit of that idea for mine.

That's a sweet looking RS/Z28 you have there! If timing was better for me (just started a new upstart company) I'd be headed down to see it with trailer in tow. GLWS

I've not had it running with them opened up. Once they were installed everything was reassembled and it's hard for me to tell. They do have an interesting sound capped, but they are nothing like the Super Scavengers I had in 1967 with my L78 '67 Chevelle. At idle those things sounded like ping-pong balls were rattling around in the collector. Maybe it was the L88 cam shaft??? It was awesome. Slightly different with this peanut motor. DH

Dicky 07-03-2018 09:54 PM

I will be away
 
Hi folks, just wanted to advise everyone that I will be away on vacation for a couple of weeks and I do not have a "smart phone" (not smart enough for one) so I won't see any responses to this ad. Thanks for your understanding. DH :youguysrock:

Dicky 07-22-2018 02:11 PM

I've Returned
 
I'm back from my Holiday, and at this time it appears that the Camaro is going to a new owner, "All Pending Payment".
I want to thank SYC, all the sponsors and everyone who participates here with the wealth of information & help.
I will confirm it's sale when I have $$$$.
Thanks again.
BTW can anyone here give an opinion of a transport company named TFX International??

I know both the owner of TFX and the guy that will hopefully seal the deal on your car.
Both great guys. Congrats.
TFX will handle your car with golden gloves.
Hope to see that car soon in Canada.

I've used TFX with great results!! Congrats on the sale of your beautiful Camaro!

Dicky 07-22-2018 05:51 PM

Wow
 
WOW, four great & timely responses to my transport question, and all from Great Canadians on this site. Even though the buyer is the person making the transport choice, it helps me to know what to expect. I've wondered about how the shipping process works; when a car may be loaded first and delivered first after the load is full, ie. a vehicle is picked up in Calif. to be dropped in Manitoba but several others were picked up along the way and they may be delivered to Ontario. Do the cars get unloaded & reloaded as necessary for the pickup & drop-off locations?
I'm just curious about the procedure.

Thanks again to Chevelleheart, XXXBlackLs6M22, Norcam & BJchev396.

Xplantdad 07-22-2018 08:11 PM

David ran the car for me and I was actually surprised it was more quiet then I thought it would be. It is a nice sound though.
