SC69SAM's 69 Z...
Bought in 2000 as a small project. Never owned a camaro before. Car came with original trans, rear and a 1970 LT1 motor in it. I located a November of 1968 block for it and began to build a real 302. Body and paint was done by a real good friend and long time drag racer and body man, Court Nelson. Motor and trans work was performed by Pete Suriano from Petes Automotive in Pottstown. While not a frame off there is extensive time and effort on many little things that I picked up from this site and read in Jerry MacNeishs book. Bob Harris and Craig at Camaro Specialities in Buffalo helped the project also. We as a family enjoy this car and usually make most of the local car shows. I prefer day-2 trim because that is how we always had our cars in the old days. I have all the correct componets to put this car in stock trim if desired. Have to also thank Don White for helping me achieve the Day-2 look with vintage NOS tires and wheel combinations, along with some good ideas. Everybody here has contributed to my cause. Car is fathom green with a dark green interior. Interior is all original except carpets and dash pad. 7000 rpm tach with a short spoiler. (No X codes). It is an 11D of 1968 car. Flat original hood.
Thanks!

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.
