Another nice find

My friend keeps finding these nice pony cars. He's got a talent for it,


I for one, never liked these vinyl roofs, but that's how it came so I guess it stays.

Nice!
Vinyl roofs was a fad that faded fast. When I was in college i spent a short stint working for a Fiat dealer. One of my jobs was putting vinyl on the roofs of Fiats. Nothing stupider than a Fiat 124 with a vinyl roof.

Man I love those I fulfilled all my boyhood fantasies in a 1969 Z 28. If I ever get back into muscle cars, that would be the one . Love the green , mine was forest green with stripes

Vinyl covered hard tops- the ugliness of an convertible without any of the benefits!

Nice find though.

Hey, now. The rust holes help drop the weight where you need it least...

Very nice '69! I'd love to have an early camaro, anything from 67 - 70 1/2.

BTW this is a numbers car with a 327/ automatic. I had one just like this only a few years ago. Mine was red and white and NO vinyl roof. I will try to find a photo or two.

Here ya go!

Nice and fuzzy, just the way you guys like 'em. But you get the picture. When I bought this car it had LOW gears, at least 411's. Couldn't get rid of them fast enough
them installed I think 293's or there abouts. Nice HWY driver then.


Sorry, (hard on the eyes.)

I did not even know you could get a bench seat in an early Camaro. I always liked the early ones, like the '68 best
