Thats a pretty well-known car. Have heard its disappointing in person, especially for the prices it has sold for. Has its flaws, but an interesting and unique car nonetheless.

Baby Blue from the factory? The only one? That can't be right, can it? I wish I could read the cowl tag better.

cowl tag has no paint codes, just 2 dashes

Nice Car! I saw a Convertable at a Car show a few years ago similar color but not sure if it was a repaint

Yep well documented car, hence the price tag.

Its not the only one. It is diferent than the one that everyone is thinking of tjhat sold for $160,000. That one had paperwork and was sold out of Colorado and bought new in Madison, South Dakota. There are several or more Carolina Blue Camaros out there.

Really, Jonesy?

So there are two cross ram, carolina blue cars with the same goofy stripes? This one is in CO, and has some docs. I think, but not sure, the ebay ad a year or so ago had the stripes all the way down the front, also. Not sure on that, though.

Were these cars painted that color at the factory, or later at a dealership? I know there was an LS6 car done in that color, but didnt know there were several camaros made that way. Interesting.

This might be a newbie question, but why would a non-RS car have headlight washers? I thought only RS cars would have them. (The ad says it includes the headlamp washer information tag)

I noticed that too in the ad. I think the headlight washer system was optional on any car, while it was standard/included with RS. Not sure how many non-RS cars got them. I think I've read on here that no std cars got the option, but maybe this car did? I would think that at least a few people checked that box?

I'm obviously not too sure about this, maybe someone can straighten it out? :)

No .. you could get the headlight washers without the RS option...RPO CE1 .. 116 cars got them.. this car looks like the same baby blue car that sold for 160 or 170 last year with the exception of not having the big dent in the glove box . However I do not think that car was originally from South Dakota so maybe not.. would be quite a coincidence though to have the same stripes painted all the way down the back

Is that the correct hood for a cross-ram carb setup? Seems like the opening for the air cleaners would be bigger and more oblong, not round like it would be for a standard cowl induction system.
