Explained in previous post

Roger & Paul decided to take the Z28 to Jack Scanlon out of Post Falls Id and have him do a 100K restoration I think it sat at Jack's waiting to be done for over 2 years and then when Roger & Paul got killed the restoration ideas came to a halt! Merle DuPrey ended up buying the car back from their families! Now advance to July 2017 Merle got very sick & passed away so I purchased the car from his estate! Big question I Have? If you were lucky enough to own this special car would you leave it in the shape Roger & Paul bought it? Or would you restore it & make it like Rogers & Paul's Plans? This car is one of the last projects Roger Rodas & Paul Walker were working on. Your Thoughts? Thanks! Bill Fowler / Solo Speed Shop

Kolektor! Tks! yeah funny you can line up 10 concourse Camaros blk, blu, red Etc & put the Solo Z28 next to them & the crowd goes to the old rusty one! I had a young guy come over and he had a nice RS SS 69 Camaro & said I would die to have my car look like this! He asked how could I do it! I laughed & said put it out in the desert for 30 years! Patina is for the chosen few the older you get the more you like Patina! I'm 62 w/ a lot of Patina!  PS yes Merle passed away and they have to sell everything & that's what happens to us old guys when we leave this world! RIP Merle & it was a pleasure to know you! Bill

Hey Guys!
Okay I have been blessed in life &  own about 22 Classic Cars, Hotrods & Trucks! 6 real Z28'S in my life and have been looking for about 10 years long & hard for a unrestored 69 Z
I got very lucky & this car fell in my lap! I will never restore this car it will stay like it is! Jerry Macneish verified The motor, Trans, and rear end are original to car! Thank you for all the replys & interest in this car! If I can help you with anything please ask!  Tks Bill

A few things car still has reverse lock out still hooked up kind of a pain you have to put in reverse each time to turn off key, Key buzzer still works & E brake light & bright lights still work on dash! I have had quite a few Camaros & that stuff never worked! Bill
