Caveat Emptor...interesting but a mess

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Chevrolet-Camaro-Z-28-X33-DZ302-MUST-SELL-NO-RESERVE/303382668989?hash=item46a30426bd:g:MmMAAOSwWxxd4BT-&vxp=mtr

124379N667963

From the ad:

This Z/28 Camaro is Powered by the Original Z/28 DZ302 Motor that was highly desired for it's high revving motor and racing heritage!

Car was final-assembled on or about July 10,1969. Engine was built December 17, 1968. Not the original engine.

Car is one of very few Z/28s built as a two-tone: Olympic Gold w/Dover White top. But the 'restoration' is a train wreck; more show car than resto.

No reserve so might be a viable project.

I saw the car as well the other day. May have been a stunner with that color combo, now as you say just a "mess". I have it on my watch list, any original Z with no reserve is fun to watch.
