69 Camaro RS

Purchased in 1997 from the estate of a lady in British Columbia. Total originally Hugger Orange Rally Sport Camaro 327 column shift, 3 speed with 14,500 original miles. Never wrecked, never rusted. Always stored in a garage. She purchased 5 raffle tickets for $1 in 1969. 2 weeks later she won the car. The winning ticket had to go to the Canadian government for tax purposes. I still possess the 4 remaining tickets. The car came with original protecto plate and all documentation. When the original owner passed she willed it to her caretaker. But, he didn't want it.

In 1998 I decided to upgrade the drivetrain.
  • Lingenfelter 383
  • Corvette ZF 6 speed
  • Mark Williams 12 bolt posi-traction read-end
  • Baer disk brakes
  • Increased spring rates
  • Fikse 17" wheels
In 2000
  • Bill Hall filled some emblem holes and reshot the exterior the original color
The interior is still pristine and original.
