73 Z 7k miles

Where's that car today, Bill? I bet it was fun. My roommate in college had a 1973 RS Z28 and I thought it was a rocket ship, but it may have become faster in my memory over the past 45 years.

His was an RS car as well. He sold a 1969 Forest Green Z-28 that had an L-88 in it that was lettered "Bit of Gold" on the quarters to buy the 1973 Z-28. I was going to buy it, but was afraid the car was going to crack in half due to the 2" perpendicular cracks below the sail panels on the quarters from not having the frames connected. Old "Bit of Gold" was a low 12 second car back in the day, but not too street able.

I posted about this car way back on this site trying to find it and to see if anyone remembered "Bit of Gold" but had no replies. Bill
