Lots of good ideas thanks. I'd love to build a DYNACORN body up to a complete Camaro but I'm afraid I'd need a "bail out" to finish it...

Stay away from DYNACORN unless you have a body shop, nothing fits right. To Much work, I know a guy that started one last year and stopped, what a mess.

I know someone that has LH & RH 67-68 factory GM quarters in his basement

.

As far as 1969 Z/28 Camaros, I own one and can pick out the fakes once I get to spend about a half hour with the car. There are certain factory clues and mountings that I learned as I redid the car. Just to start -----early west coast cars had no X codes so other signs outside of build sheet(extremely rare) and warrenty tin will help. If the car you are looking at has an X code it must be X33 or X77 for a Z/28. If the owner argues-walk away. The best documented camaros are from Canada as GM microfiched all the information and is available to you for a small fee. I could go on and on. Bottom line ----research. plenty of good information on the net.

Go right to the expert , Jerry MacNeish , he is the foremost authority on Camaro's and has written several books about them.

I agree with Dave Ley , Jerry is the leading expert on 67-69 camaro's ... Mainly 69 Z-28 's he is the Best & know's where most of them are hidden ... Call or e-mail him you won't be sorry ...

As far as looking for an early Camaro , E Bay and Cars-on-line will give you an idea of what is out there. If you are looking at a real COPO 9561 car (steel head 427 ) be prepared to talk to your accountant. I have been to a lot of shows and have seen some fantastic recreations of of these cars --right down to the correct block and head casting , carb numbers, trans and rearend code numbers. A COPO car recreation pops up every so often on EBAY. The more correct the the more the money. Prices are also vary with the season. e.g---going into fall & winter prices will be more negotiable and in the spring the number will be higher. Spend some time to learn as much as you can about what you want and it will be a much more enjoyable experience.-----John
