General Discussion / Fake '68 Z28 Convertible article in Hemming's Muscle Machines

« on: July 04, 2008, 03:14:24 AM »

There's a beautiful '68 RS/Z28 convertible on the cover of the August issue of Muscle Machines.  Just got it today, and read it.  The builder fully discloses that it's a counterfeit convertible; in fact, he built it to highlight the fact that fakes are out there and are getting harder to tell.   It's a beautiful car, Marina Blue, deluxe interior, RS, with lots of options.  He had some documentation made to match what he is presenting.   Since there is only 1 known '68 convertible Z28 to have been built, it makes it obvious that it's not real.  He sure went to a lot of trouble to do it!

General Discussion / Beautiful '68

Take a look at this.  Tell me if you see anything "wrong" with it.  The guy did a really nice job on it.  Can't wait to see what it sells for!

Any guesses on what this is worth???

Originality / question about TH350 trans and floor shifter for 1968

« on: June 16, 2008, 12:17:31 AM »

I read in a '68 Camaro sales brochure, that  the shifter is "steering column mounted, unless floor-mount is specified, with or without console".   

My question is, if you opted for the TH350 trans, floor mounted, but no console,  what did it look like?  Was it a stirrup shifter like the console has, or what?  I've never seen one, that didn't have the console.   I have seen 4-speeds, sans the console, but not an automatic.  Just curious.  Thanks.

General Discussion / Ocean City, MD Cruisin' OC tons of Camaros

« on: May 18, 2008, 12:56:51 PM »

I just got back from 3 days in Ocean City, MD.  Their 18th annual Cruisin' event lasted 5 days (ends today).  Off and on rainy, but Saturday was fantastic weather.  3500 cars registered, with tons of Camaros.  Mostly 69's, but quite a few '67's and some '68's.  I will definitelty be going back.  I posted some photos of Camaros on my website (which is still under construction).  Check 'em out.  If you were there with your Camaro, I probably have a picture of it.

Here is my favorite Camaro.  What color green is it?  I'd love to have this car.

General Discussion / Hey Guys/Gals - great website!

« on: April 21, 2008, 02:18:25 AM »

I found this site, while looking for Camaro information.   I had a '68 RS back in high school/college, but like an idiot, sold it to buy a townhouse.   I'm looking forward to getting another '68 Camaro.   I have a '70 Corvette, which I'm thinking about selling, in order to get the Camaro (which is where my heart is).   Anyway, I'm looking forward to being a regular here.   Pic is from 1987 at Daytona (I was probably skipping class that day).   Mark
