I have a 1968 Camaro with a 327 -4 speed manual.

Green with black stripes.

I can't post it here since I don't have a website to upload it to.

I have had the car for over 33 years. Rescued it from a farmers front yard in North Dakota where it sat for 4 years.

I put a new battery, gas, oil and tires on it and fixed the rear tail lights and drove it for 6 years without doing anything else to it.

Had it basically restored in 1996, and the paint job on it still looks great after 27 years. It is starting to show some wear a bit now though...

Use your phone or a friend's phone! Sounds like a very cool ride. The 327 4-speed in the 1st gen is often overshadowed by the other drivertrain options but is a fun setup for the street and with mild mods gives some respectable 1/4 mile times.

The last 60's something was this 69 Camaro. 502, 700r4, vintage air, fuel injected. Sold it a couple of years ago. Starting to look for a 1970 Chevelle that isn't a build sheet matching numbers car.

(I think I already told you that though lol)

lol, yes you did. Not gonna lie, I've contemplated selling it and getting something else. I still need to get the trans replaced though. I broke it in the spring and decided this was a good excuse to get a TKX 5 speed. Just haven't had the time to deal with it though. I already have the new clutch, flywheel, etc but just need to get the trans ordered.

Wow you don't see those everyday in the US. I think we need a backstory on how you came to own that one. Its amazing how its not flat black with 55 gal drum sitting in the trunk :-)

I've done a little bit of work to mine lately. Installed a TKX 5 speed and had to replace the trans hump in the floor due to some crappy work done by the previous owner. I also replaced the rear lower control arms and sway bar with parts from UMI. Still need to do the uppers on the rear and the front suspension.

New wheels/tires are next on the list after that.

Nice job on that 5 speed install! What wheel and tire combo are you going with? Your current setup looks damn good. IMO the bigger wheels and small sidewalls just don't look right on our A bodies. The lines of these cars need meaty tires with white letters!

Great looking car. I've been a Chevelle fan since the mid 70s. I have owned a few but never had a 1969.

A couple weeks ago I finally got both of my toys together to take a couple pictures.
