There's an EARLY build (08D) on EBay.

I saw that - nice looking car too!
-
According to my Decoding from the Cowl Tag; Trim 709 Z it should have Bucket Seats (easy fix) also G-G PAINT it should not have a Vinyl Roof also a fairly easy fix. Rest of car looks fairly solid.

that would be a good parts car to restore the vin #001 Camaro
-
Are there any differences between an early car like this and the later cars Ive heard subframes and such were different. Must have been built first day?
-
My car is 11A build. All #'s I have found match, including both partial Vins., and many Body panel date codes(weeks 42 to 44). It has the early Sub-frame with no Tie-down holes and J-clips for rear Bumper bracket bolt. It has the metal Bucket Seat back panels. This 8D build probably has first design Trunk Lid, mine is the Mid design. Nice car !
-
Notice how the fuel gauge on this early car has a 1/2 label at 12 oclock and the word FUEL is on the circular center portion of the guage. Later guages don't have the 1/2 label and the FUEL wording is located in its place. Just another one of those running changes made during the year.
Early:

My 11A LOS build has the 2 nd. style Fuel Gauge, and it was built only 9 weeks after this gold one.

"that would be a good parts car to restore the vin #001 Camaro"..........does anyone know where the #001 is presently? This car is much too nice to part out in any normal situation, but it does have alot of 30th area week 66 [July-ish] sheetmetal and related parts
