Good deal on DZ 302

[x33rs]

In 1969 my father bought his GTO new (still owns it) And by 1970 he was looking for a second car as my mother needed something. Our neighbor had a 69 Z/28 he bought new and was now looking to sell. Frost Green, white interior and a Rally Sport. He wanted $2500 for it. I remember my father talking about how good of a deal that was for a 1 year old car. Dad even test drove and liked the car, he had always had high strung small blocks with 4 speeds prior to the GTO purchase, but in the end just couldn't swing 2 car payments and had to pass on it. He ended up buying a cheap Honda motorcycle to ride to work so my mother could drive the GTO.

Fast forward, I own a 69 RS Z/28 that is also Frost Green with white interior. Not the same car, but it reminds dad of the one that got away.
