69 Z/28 update
I know not a Pontiac but thought I would post a few before and after pictures of the Camaro that originally started this post. Finally after 5 years I have the car just about completely restored. Didn't plan on it taking this long but work, family and life in general always seemed to get in the way of getting this car done! Anyways I was just looking thru the pictures when I bought the car and remembered starting this post and thought it would be neat to do a update.
Once I get it 100% finished I will get some better pics of it and maybe post them here. Brent |

Beautiful Z! It doesn't get much better than a 69 Z-28 in Lemans blue! 1st gen Camaros (especially 69's) are like owning precious metals, they only seem to go up in value!

Friend of mine has one of these that he bought 20 years ago. He complained he was pricey even then.

Pretty much all the Z's that were in/around my town in the '70s had flat hoods. But you almost never see them that way now.

COPO, Z-10 ( RS/SS), Z-11 ( RS/SS) all had a cowl hood from factory. In 69 you could swap your SS hood on the order sheet for a Cowl hood, so a bunch of Super Sports had cowl hoods. ( non Z-10, or 11 cars) ( yup its true!!)

Car looks great. Love that color and flat hood. My old boss ordered a 69 Z28 new. Flat hood, no spoilers and raced it in SCCA. Did very well with it. Love my Pontiac engines, but a well tuned 302 Chevy is a sweet sounding engine at 6500-7000 RPM,s.

Would be even sweeter with the RS option.
Re: the pace car mentioned earlier. Never understood the hate guys would have for a car to just let it rot away and not sell it to someone who would appreciate it. People are weird. Last edited by FunctionalShaker; 02-05-2017 at 07:08 PM. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
