Chevrolet Camaro 1969 Description
Up for sale is fully documented (Protect-O-Plate, Window Sticker) 1969 Z11 L78 Camaro Pace Car with the highest horsepower big block available from GM in 69 (only thing bigger was Yenko and Copo cars) 396/375hp backed with a M21 Muncie 4-Speed Transmission and 373 posi rear end. As with all Z11 Pace Cars this is a RS (Rally Sport) SS (Super Sport), Convertible Car.Additional Option: Endure Bumper
Non-Air Conditioning (Who would want it in a muscle car..)
Completed (Sub-Frame off) and Rotisserie Restoration. There isn't a car more correct, every major part is date correct and part # correct down to the bolt head markings including all inspection markings an decals placed exactly where they would have been from the GM production line. I have spent hours on the phone talking in-person to the a few guys remaining who actually worked the assembly line as these cars were being produced. There was no expense spared on this beautiful ride. Car has less than 10 miles on it since built, a true show-piece!!
I have over 750 photos of the car as it went through its restoration. I also have every NOS and GM part #, dates codes fully documented and will share with select individuals that are interested.
This car is fully functional, any interested buyer will not get to drive this car until they own it. It is truly a trailer queen and my guess will spend the rest of its life in someones collection or showroom. I took it (inclosed trailer) to 2 car shows this year and receiver 1st place in both within the concourse class.
The only thing the car is currently missing orhasn't beenapplied is the "Indianapolis Official Pace" decals for the doors. I have the decals, just not on the car.
If interested in viewing this show piece and your fully understand what this car is worth (please do your homework) then please message me todiscuss dates and times.
There is truly not another Z11 this perfect and complete out there.
Please don't waste your time or mine. If you know muscle cars there doesnt get much (if any) better.
I am selling worldwide. However, Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs. I am willing to assist and will work with your carrier.
I would also ask thatyou inspect this car foryourself ororange for an inspector. As with carrier, I am willing to assist.
Also a $500.00depositsinto my PayPal account is required within 48 hours after auction ends.
I have taken countless hours documenting each and every component on this ultra rare Camaro. Below is the entire list of every component and their date codes as identified as this car was being restored. I am confident it would be very difficult to locate such a Camaro "Pace Car" with the documentation this car has. If you want a rare Big Block Camaro, this is the car for you.
Thanks for looking
