nice camaro though...

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

I know Frank will take care of the truck! I hope that Camaro is what he says it is......... Why would someone turn an SS Camaro into a Z28?? BTW: next spring I get back my 68 Camaro RS/SS 350 3 speed stick from my friend. My Uncle bought it new, I owned it for 11 years and sold it to my friend. I'm buying it back next spring!!!!!!!!I have all the paperwork from when my uncle bought it and the protecto plate. This IS the only Camaro I will own; old or NEW. Good luck on that 69!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Beautiful car, bigarmzz. I can see and understand why you sold your truck and harley for it. There is just something about a '69 Camaro. I've always wanted one as well, in the exact same color scheme (blue with white stripes).

I can only imagine the anticipation of the arrival! Congratulations on a beautiful new car!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Sexy purchase! Totally cool move in my opinion! My "cool car" is a '68 Firebird convertible...Some Day :)!!!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Nice find! I can't believe you bought it without seeing it in person though. We redid on for a guy before, he bought it for $20k because it was in a magazine..... He brought it to my friends body shop to get a fresh coat of paint. After we started sanding on it we found some bondo on it. 2 rear quarters, passenger door skin, passenger fender, header and cowl panel,hood, trunk lid and floor later it rolled out $9k more in repairs and paint. The bad part was, it looked really good before. It was just all covered up.... We called it "The Beautiful Letdown". Hope it works out for you.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

WOW!! congrats to Frank! i'd sell everything for the '69 myself buddy. i will own one before i'm 40... its just a life long dream and goal;) good deal my friend! looks like a beauty for sure!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

looks like a nice Camaro...Hope you're thrilled with it....

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

wow. that's one hell of a trade off, I hope you get what ya paid for.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Cool deal Biggz. Nice looking car too!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

well, it at least you have a nice classic.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Beautiful , should be a blast driving that thing around in those mountains where you live . Shame you couldnt have kept your truck also , but I know how that is . Keep in touch

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Frank will take amazing care of your ol' truck, so no worries there.

Now that '69 SS is beautiful, I think you will be more than happy. :D

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Nice upgrade. There are plenty of 73-87's for you to build if you get the urge again. That's a very good looking 69 - hope it's all you expect.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

It is evident from the pics of the bike,truck,and te 69 that you have great taste in rides.Ireally like the rims/wheels on the bike. Seems much more classy than many of the big carved billet wheels I have seen.
Frank

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Okay Frank, where's the new pics? :D

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

ok, i LOVED your truck to unhealthy levels, but that camaro. dang..i dont even know what to say! :D

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

The truck is still at Kumar's place. I have set up a shipper but I am told it may take a couple weeks.
There will be pics. One of a black with red interior and one red with a black interior. I am going to keep the black truck until after September ,then I may get serious about selling it . The red truck is supposed to be my sons truck, he just doesnt know it. My wife actually TOLD me to buy it . Seems like she might be planning to off me and is just getting things in order first ,j/k but it ws strange that she actually wants me to buy another truck.My son thinks the truck was sold to someone else.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Nice rides Bigzz. I hate to see the truck go, but at least it went to our resident clean truck king. Anyone take odds on how long before he has another square?

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Lovely camaro.And take it from me you can get another truck and harley.:metal:

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

That is awesome Frank! Be sure to have the camera up and running when he realizes the truck did sell... to the family. :D

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Nice camaro........... I knew I have been hanging on to mine so long for reason. I know you will enjoy the hell out of it.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

The truck will be much easier to replace than a '69 Camaro. Of course you know that because it replaced your old black truck!

This is a shot of my coupe with my old '67 RS.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Definitely a good trade i my opinion. I hope its not a dolled up bondo queen.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

like has been said. the truck and bike are easier to replace than a nice classic. that's a nice ride you got comin

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang that's a sharp car!!! (hopefully!!!!)

I don't know what you sold your truck for, but there's some pretty nice ones that show up on craigslist for under 3K (obviously not anywhere near as nice as yours, but clean and straight). You'll have another one before you know it ;)

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Nice truck, bike and car. I have a 68 Myself. Camaro's are great!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

little update::metal:

got the car in, and all is "dandy" to say the least!!! the underside looks like it was pretty close to a rotisere (sp?) restoration....all the brake lines and fuel lines are stainless, has all new GM body bushing, and A arm bushings, the high dollar Edelbrock IAS shocks all the way around, and come to find out it has multi leafs, w/ 12 bolt 3:73 posi!!, Z-21 trim package and its a X-11 Super Sport! the fool just put on z28 badges..why i dont know, the guy was a true and true mopar guy..didnt know squat about chevys...said his wife drove this one to shows, and he drove his Hemi ...


.... the a/c even blows cold, no kiddin

the paint is amazing to say the least, lots of metallic in it, but ya know, not as much as a speed boat or nuttin:lol:

this baby was rust free, and has all original panels, exept for a right rear quarter that was brazed on, but done very well, no bondo in the doors or fenders at all

the interior is awesome, just couldnt be any happier, and it runs like a smacked ape!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

I'm happy for you that it was as described....or even better it seems..... It looks AWESOME!!!!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Sweet car. More pictures when you have time.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Frickin' awesome man!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Wow, that was definitely worth the trade.

Beautiful Camaro!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

beautiful car I love the 69's !

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

It looks and sounds as though you made out like a bandit! Beautiful automobile, that will do nothing but become more valuable. I'd have done the same thing!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Has the truck been put in a transporter yet? ;)

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

^^^He said it was "in". So I assume that's him playin' with it in the pics. ;)

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Yeah, I saw the car was in, but I was curious if the truck had been shipped yet, or picked up.

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

:lol: Would help if I could read, huh? Sorry!

Re: My new Toy-sadly had to sell my 87 though
 

Dude for that car I would be over Frank, the bike and my wife before they left the driveway. :lol: NICE!!!

Z28 badges, that's hilarious. Of all the cloned camaros out there you find one that's a true x-11 SS "de-cloned". Don't see that everyday!
