1969 Z/28  X33 D80 only 1969 Z in the world with a Mid Life Crisis front tag on it, so that makes it a one of one.  Paid $6,000,000.00 for it six years ago, but they shipped it for free.   I am getting upset with it though because I'm always getting beat at car shows by a 1967 Camaro SS with spoilers, 327 emblems on the fenders , and rally stripes. ;)

1969 Base Coupe RS with 327/210 Hp, Powerglide, 2.73:1 open rear end.  I've had the car for 18 years now.  Purchased it off the showroom floor at a Chevy dealership in Baton Rouge, LA on 1 Nov 1991 for $12,000.  Engine in the car was not original.  Found a correct 327 in March 1994 from a donor '69 Camaro that was being parted out.  Car has the original interior and after 18 yrs of TLC is a great car to take a drive in.  As you guys (and gals) know, a 1st Gen Camaro turns heads whenever and wherever it is seen in public.

Saw an ad in a newspaper when I lived on Long Island in 1983.  It read "1968 Camaro SS/RS 350, 4 speed. No engine.  $1,100."  I bought it.  It was a very complete and original car (except engine) and only needed a little body work, paint and a few other odds and ends.   Rallye Green, deluxe interior, console, M21, 3:73.

I AM TRYING TO FIND PREVIOUS OWNER(S).

I have had my 69 Camaro for 3 years.
Paid too much for it, since the bottom fell out of the econony a year later and Camaro prices dropped.

my 69 burnished brown x-77 car purchased in 1978 for $3,000. paid that much because it only had 32,000 miles on it. the interior still has that new car smell! my 67 butternut yellow rs/ss 350 i bought in 1984 for $2,800 from the original owner. during the restoration two years ago, i reached out to the original owner, who came to my house with his wife and two kids and spent the afternoon talking about the car. at the end of the day, he stated that he was pretty sure that he still had the original bill of sale for the car. it is now framed in my garage with a picture of the car from back in 67, and the bill of sale from him to me. jerry was just up to certify the car, which was purchased new at Village chevrolet in queens village, ny. the same dealer that sold jerry's 13,000 mile survivor.

I purchased my 1967 Camaro RS convertible in June of 1978 for $750 Canadian. It has a 327/210 hp engine, 2 speed powerglide, power steering, power brakes, power top, power windows and 12 bolt positraction rear end. Most of my friends and relatives thought I paid too much for it. It was drivable but needed a lot of work.

I purchased my 69 Z10 from the original owner in Sept 1999.  POP & Window sticker.  05A car, L48, M20, and a CE engine dated coded to July of 1969.  The original 18 year old owner must have tested his new warranty also!  The CE engine is on a stand, and a ZZ4 now fills up the engine bay.  One repaint. 
Paid: $8,000.   ;D

I bought my Camaro in Oct 1979 and paid $1600 for it. I bought it while away at college and my dad blew a gasket when I told him about it!! He thought that I was crazy for spending that much money on an 'old car'. Sadly, he passed away before having a chance to see the car after I did a ground up resto on it.

I can't think of anything else that I have owned for 30 years!!!!
