From the ad:

The Trim Tag is the original and denotes the car to be code 50 50 Dover White with code 711 Black interior.

It must be the lighting in the photos, but when I looked at that add and they said rare color, I thought it was butternut yellow.

It's a shame, really nice looking Camaro. Wonder why the bidding ended?

I saw a ton of stuff that was wrong with the car...Joe

Hi, I'm new to the Z crowd and am trying to learn as much as I can.  Can you elaborate on some of the "stuff that was wrong" with the car?  I'm also on a Porsche forum and it is common practice to help future buyers of things that are wrong with "for sale Porsches", especially when the seller does not disclose the fault or fraudulently says something.

If this is against the forum rules, I appologize.

Be safe

Data sheet lists engine stamping as V1218DZ. Stamping appears to be V1231DZ. No opinion on stamp as pad should not be painted.

Tach/gauges includes a clock in the middle of the dash. Wrong tire size. Door panels too fluffy. Seat belts, male side is deluxe. Female side is standard. Floor pan over restored (no overspray). Too much paint on bellhousing & engine. Seal on air cleaner is upside down & has the wrong ring to support it. Smog is missing. Wrong tach. Some of the brake parts are wrong. Replacement carb. Bottom of hood painted wrong. Those are obvious things. I'm sure I missed others...Joe
