69 Z/28 survivor on Ebay
« on: December 22, 2013, 03:00:09 AM »


These survivor cars are very intriguing.
If the bids are real, this one is bringing some major money.

Someone put a repop trim tag on it... damn that sucks terribly for the owner.
IT is a LARGE TT for a VERY EARLY November of 1968 built car.

Not neccesarily, there are plenty of large format cowl tags in November of 68.  This car is a very early 11A built car but I have numerous 11A large format tags in my collection of images.  Both the large and small format tags were used during November. This one should not have an X code on it if its original.

Come on. Very obvious tag is original and untouched.

I like the car, and I like the idea that these original cars are still out there waiting to be found. "Best color" , not mine but we all have our favorites. It's on my watch list, I am some what surprised it is bid higher than the silver unrestored Z that one of our fellow CRG members purchased. I am not sure I would attribute that to color, but who knows what a couple of bidders are interested in one month to the next.
I thought I saw this car on ebay last year, but I see a lot of orange with the black vinyl top so I may be mistaken. The odd colors are easier for me to remember...

Lets see where it goes!

Hmmmmm..  maybe you are partially color deficient?       :) :)       and WTH do you mean by 'odd colors'??   :)
Is the '69 Camaro called the 'Hugger' or not?   Are there any other colors than 'Hugger Orange'..  with 'hugger' in the color name?  :)
It HUGS me...    very well.   *G*

"odd" may be a poor choice of words. how about not ordered as often, or seldom seen or lower percentage colors. For instance I don't see to many silver with red interior cars, or white with red interior. They are not super rare, they are out there, my point was a champaign 69 or yellow with yellow hounds tooth interior I don't see as often and it would stand out in my memory. I see a lot of the orange with black vinyl top, obviously it was a popular choice back then.

Camaro the "hugger" sure you can associate it with hugger orange. Oddly enough the brochure which shows the "hugger" license plate is a green car.

I personally like Garnet Red, and looked for a long time to find the right condition Z that was a original Garnet Red car. After finding a bunch of cars repainted red, I found a nice one that still has much of the original paint intact.
 If somebody has their eye out for a original Z that is Orange here is there chance.

Red interior original camaros are pretty rare, esp with white/silver exterior.  Personally, my favor car color combo is white w/red interior...  I think the late 60's was a 'black interior on performance cars' period.. or maybe it's still that way?  I know when I first saw my orange/black car and peeked in and saw the orange/black houndstooth.. my first thought was..  YUK..  :)    but it grew on me.. :)  and I purchased it.. (traded a Marina blue / black interior Z28 for it..).

I like unrestored cars, but the price of this is WAY out there. I really wonder what he wants for it. I guess it won't be long. There was a Blue one 2 or 3 years ago for 50K. I wish I got it. Well $63,333 with 4 hours left. I guess he wants 65K! I would agree with ya about the silver car. That was nice... Danny

I wonder how many of these so called for sales are BS buttons for someone looking for a thrill to see any interests.
