    With a Camaro as sweet as that, there is no radio needed. All you need to do is roll down the windows, listen to the exhaust note and smile knowing your behind the wheel of one fine 69. SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL...😍

    The Z28 my Dad owned when I was little was a late ‘69 Z that had a 67 burgundy paint code but was special ordered in a ‘70 1/2 dark grey metallic with black stripes. That car was my first love. To this day, I’m a 1969 Z28 fanatic.

      @@MapleMotorsNickSouthgate The only thing that Nick even pointed out was the headliner dropping down. It was new & who ever installed it wasn't paying much attention to detail. That cost the owner a few bucks, hell he might not even know the head liner has dropped down. Give the installer a chance. Let him see the result of his so called hard work. Chances are this headliner could be reworked for nothing. 70K is not flawless. I seen a 68 GTO sale on Mecum Auctions Kissimmee in Jan of 2021 for over 60K. Them dudes were fighting over it. I was laughing my ass off. It had an electrical issue that took out the right side lights & turn signal's. How much do you think it's going to cost the new owner to figure out where the short is? Oh yes, I know. That much money we just rip everything out & redo the right side wiring. Should work now, do you think?

    • @ellisonlowrimore7751
      @ellisonlowrimore7751 4 года назад +3

      I’m in agreement! 70K is a chunk of change with the modifications. The trim tag shows it’s a true X77 car so a real no frills Z28. X33 was with rail trim and decor. My next problem is it’s a 51 color Dusk Blue with a E white vinyl top originally. The interior is 716 which is dark blue. This my opinion when buying a real Z, there are somethings here that make me nervous if I was buying. I searched for a year for my TRUE RS/SS all date coded with matching numbers motor and trans 350 4-speed. Not as expensive as a Z. It’s a beautiful car but again it’s 70K

      I don’t know for sure, but I sure can’t imagine nick and his family would get caught up in a hot car. Seems like they know things well enough to know when things aren’t right and need to be looked at a bit closer but who am I to say anything about it........ but I can tell ya that Shipley Donuts are by far some of the best Donuts in the country which should mean that Hendersonville Tennessee should have some of the happiest cops in all of the country with all of those good Donuts around, lol 😂

I remember asking him how much faster the Camaro was over the vette. I think he's still laughing m. Sad part they were sold to pay off moms maxed out credit cards He said the corvette sold for $9000 in the mid 70s. The Camaro was traded in for something, it was stolen from the dealership a week later. He was shocked how fast my 2013 Camaro SS was, cammed, headers etc. miss that car

    omg reading the comments. Keyboard warriors.they dont understand apparently.i actually restored a 42000 dollar roadrunnner and ripped it down with my own hands 10 years ago and next week its up for auction i found out today they called me to verify things and they said thats the best 68 polished roadrunner and perfect one we have seen yet what a compliment!.noone compliments anymore so i took that thought 10 years ago and made the best roadrunner i could and im a gm guy but it worked!

    Beautiful. Shut lines probably better than factory. Motors correct; original? Just a great thing for someone to own, should at least keep its value. Something that nice is also some responsibility though.
