Camaro Nationals
« on: July 11, 2022, 11:40:37 AM »
Just wondering how many members might be attending Camaro Nationals this weekend? Would be great to meet up and exchange some hello's, etc....
I'll be there with our 68Z and know some great Camaro's will be in attendance.

I'll be there. Bringing my 68 Z. Working on the 67/68 Legends Manual. And working on some other task. Looking forward to seeing everyone again plus new faces.

Wanted to, but flight costs were a tiny bit higher than expected. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫. Having lived in NOVA and making the short drive for the previous shows, I know I’ll miss some great stuff. Please (for this guy who can’t be there) post some pictures. If any of you have seen my posts,  I’m particularly interested in the fiber optic installs. Specifically the convertible with and without the fold down seat. If the owner has a fold down and  is willing to allow pictures of the bracket mount install, I would appreciate it. Also, if you see any 1st Gen convertible with a rear window defogger, a few pictures of the mounted motor and duct would be great. There’s no instructions anywhere and I’ve been looking.

Have a great time guys!! Say hi to Karl Sheffy for me.

Wasn't there a manual stolen last year? Was it ever returned?

And looking forward to checking out your 68z and discussing the manual for 67/8.

Ho-Ray! 67/68, gonna need a bunch of revisions I bet, tough combining all the little differences but I understand the need to combine vs single manual per year.

I think the 67 68 should be separated like the 69. There are more than enough differences and information available to legitimately make independent guides. I also believe it does a complete disservice to lump them together, as if there is nothing worth noting about the differences. Will it be easy? No. Consume tens of thousands of hours of time, effort,research, documentation, questions, and rechecking it all again? Yes.  Just my opinion, but I’ll be happy to help the project regardless….all you have to do is ask.

It looks like I will be able to go! I will be arriving on the 13th in the morning at the Philadelphia airport if any body is headed by that way I can kick in for gas money. 😉

I wish I could be there but unfortunately I'll be home.

To those attending nationals could you please send me plenty of '67 L78 photos to my cell below please? Detail shots of engine bay, bolt head markings, anything cool please.

Thank You!

So when was the show moved to Morgantown? I was not the only one driving around Fredrick, saw several early cars. I do not recall anyone mentioning it. Guess I should have googled it before I left.
