Default 1968 L89 Mecum

Sold for 80,000, Kissimmee. Could not have been a real L89. Anyone know that car? Black.

Looks like it. It didn't mention very much in add except numbers matching. Kinda like one saying on here.... always be suspicious of a black car! Or an undocumented rare camaro. Ha.Just a nube here, but visited here for many times looking for parts and research while restoring my L89.

Owned it about 15 years. 68 Lemans Blue, numbers matching, documented, RS. Finished restoration in 2015. Was judged at the Camaro Nationals, Gold in 2017. Solid lifter showroom in18. Cannot determine value, there not any comparison that I can find. The 69 that sold years ago at Mecum wound up being bogus. I have an opertunity on several rare lost camaros, including a Dick Harrell car, I am working on and may part with the L89.

The 69 that sold years ago at Mecum wound up being bogus.

You talking about the Black L89 out of Florida which had fake paper also showing it with JL8?

Pretty car but it really caused a stir :-)
