Jeff Boone's Garnet L78 Camaro SURVIVOR !

[Belair62]

This is cool

I purchased this car from the original owner, Gerald Walker from Three Springs, PA, which is only 40 miles from my home in Honey Grove, PA. Gerald purchased the car on Dec. 26th, 1968 from Stoudnour Chevrolet in Saxton, PA. This had to be his best X-mas ever, and eventually turning into my best X-mas, as I bought the car in Dec. of 2003. I first found out about this car one day around 1990 when I took my 69 RS/Z to get inspected and the guy at the garage told me he knows of a 1 owner 69 Z/28, so I got his phone # and evntually going to look at the car to find out it was a RS/SS L78. My only mistake was not buying the car then, thinking that was way too much money for the car, look where we are at today.
Gerald special ordered this car, and when it came in the dealer's son decided he wanted the car instead, so Gerald ended up giving another $500 more for the car just to get it, and told the owner he would never buy another car from him.

The car has 12,192 original miles and has Vintage Camaro Certification in the Legend Class at the 2004 GM Natl's at Carlisle, with special thanks going out to Steve Shauger for all his help.

Options Include:
Rally Sport
Endura Bumper
396-375
M-21
4.10 posi
Tach and Console Gauges
Mint Black Standard Int.

I have the original Uniroyal Tigerpaws that came with the car, and when I bought it, it had a set of Thrush sidepipes on it that Gerald put on in 1970 when the transverse muffler would not pass inspection. The only other things I have done to the car is ad a set of Goodyear Custom Widetreads, so I can drive it, and I spent 50 hours cleaning the undercoating from the underside of the car, (well worth the effort).

Thanks
