My first car in high school was a 69 Camaro..only paid $800 for it and took all my newspaper money to buy it. Was a base camaro with 350, automatic but it ran like a bat out of hell. Funny to think it was considered a Used car back then..traded it in when I graduated for an economical car at the time.. ugh a Chevy Chevette. So I am familiar with camaros and knew it was an import car before i purchased it by the description but did not know until I saw this one for sale and started investigating it..Google is king! I did not pay what I think was a premium but just a fair negotiated price. That's why I joined this forum to get more info on it and CRG requested if anyone had one to post in here..so here is one!!

I am in Florida, USA..at some point the car was brought into the US...I only bought it about 3 weeks ago and from a dealer so he had no info on the background. As for the tail panel emblem, it could be a full rallysport eblem cut in half and installed but I have no way to prove if that was from the factory or not. Never seen it on an RS camaro before but it is aged liked the RS on the back.

I am not 100% but it does not look like it was replaced. The entire car looks like it aged together but it did have 1 re-paint some time ago. Who ever had it took good care of it and it is just a true survivor non-restored vehicle.

More showing better pics of the Vin with the JC in it, Cowl Tag which shows the full Vin and "Color Code" which is unclear what they refer to and the factory installed A/C unit.

Just went out and took more pics...Shows Speedo in KPH, Power Windows and Clock..Also the Steering wheel which I can not verify if that would have been installed from factory since it is a very rare option.

Hi, just got on this forum and saw the CRG info requesting if anyone had a Foreign built camaro. I bought one a few weeks ago and it is correct according to what is described in the article. JC in Vin, RS, Power Steering and Power Disc brakes, Automatic with A/C and Power windows. I was skeptical in buying it until I found your article and it documented all those options. Then figured I have a rare 69 camaro and it is a survivor car with only about 47,000 miles on it. It also has the clock and console. Oh and it has a KPM not a MPH Speedometer!! So kool to see people reactions to the "200 MPH" speedo until I tell them that is 120 MPH in KPM. The only question I have is that the RS badging is slightly different.. It has the RS on grille and tail panel but no side indicators at all nor the motor size. Also it has the "Rally Sport" spelled out on the rear panel as well..like "rally RS sport"... would that be correct? Sometimes the foreign cars are badged differently.
