Scored a new Camaro today, side of the road special, parked at a Baptist church for God's sake! :D:D:D Need the trim tag decoded, no claim of SS, probably not, don't care for the price. Drivetrain is unbelieveable, supposed to be a 427, TH400, interior is deluxe black and very nice, sounds like a beast!!!! Will be in my garage early tomorrow morning!!! As God as my witness, I was on my way to look at a 70 Torino GT convertible when I saw this on the side of the road, never made it to see the Furd, called the guy and told him it just wasn't meant to be. The paint and body is nice, panel fitment good, undercarriage needs some help but no serious rust issues. Never had a green car before, it's starting to grow on me already! Merry Christmas to me!!!! :D:D:D:D

Judging from the picture, it looks more like British Racing Green, than Sequoia Green.

You may be right, but it was almost dark too, lighting was poor. It may not be the "correct" color, I'll just have to compare it to some others I've seen on the net. Either way, I like it.......:D

Man, this keeps getting better and better. Noticed today a little sticker coming off the bottom of cowl hood, it's an original GM piece! Not to mention the GM quarters, fenders, hoods, door, glass, floors, good grief! This car is highly unmolested, unlike my friend SSDanny...............:)
