Title: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z-10 RS/SS 396 4bbl
Post by: 69houdini on May 15, 2015, 05:18:42 PM

Hi Guys,

If there is one thing you taught me is to do my homework and research and now I need your second opinion on this car. Good or bad.

Thank you for your info.

Sure looks nice, I agree. Wrong upper alt. brkt. I am sure there is more if I had time to look. All that sparkles are not diamonds, and what is shiny is not always gold, I am confident you know this. I think you should have had someone look at the car if you were really serious. Now, there is less than a day till auction is over.
My concern is the seller's feedback of 96.5! I would be dubious and proceed with great caution.

I would never buy a car without looking at it in person first.

And maybe I missed them, but I did not see any pics of the engine, trans or axle stamps.

I'm going to see it as long as it"s not a recognized mess, I'm asking for stamps too.

OK, if you get the drivetrain stamped numbers that will help out.

I know someone that looked to buy it in 92, had been restored.
No VIN on block and engine date was 4-5 months before car.  In 2010, the block was T0428JI. Make you go hmm...

This is one of the Z10 pace cars listed on Crispino/Hoopers Indy Pace car book under the Z10 registry.

If Chevrolet does not know how do they know? Unless they are talking about"known examples only in their registry"??

New one to me too. Discussed here on an old thread.

" Z10 production is estimated to be about 400 to 500 cars. "
And I'm pretty sure on that estimate.

I've never seen anyone else say that high. Most say 2-300.
