Details

This authentic and heavily documented 1969 Chevrolet Camaro RS Z/28 retains its original color combination, original matching-numbers DZ 302 V8 engine, original matching-numbers 4-speed close-ratio manual transmission and original 12-bolt posi-traction rear end with 3.73 gears. This car has been certified by Camaro expert Jerry MacNeish of Camaro Hi-Performance. It was featured in Camaro World magazine, indicating it won a Gold Award in the 1969 Trailered Class by the Worldwide Camaro Association. A total of 20,302 Z/28 models were produced in 1969, of which an estimated 1,308 were equipped with the Rally Sport package. As the original VIN Tag and original Trim Plate Tag indicate, this car was built on the first week of November 1968 at the Los Angeles plant as a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Sport Coupe. It was ordered in Fathom Green with white stripes with a Parchment vinyl top exterior and a Midnight Green vinyl interior. It was also ordered with the following options: center console, posi-traction axle with 3.73, power disc brakes, 4-speed close-ratio transmission, special instrumentation, AM push-button radio, manual rear antenna, special front Endura bumper, Rally Sport equipment, Special Interior Group and Z/28 Special Performance Equipment. As the original Window Sticker indicates, this car was sold by Daniels Motors, Inc., located in Colorado Springs, CO. As the original Protect-O-Plate (reissued by the original dealership for the original owner) indicates, this car was sold to Daniel Leggett of Colorado Springs, CO, on January 3, 1969. The ownership history is documented with a list of owners, Bills of Sale and copies of titles. Other original documents include the owner's manual, warranty invoices from 1969, oil change door stickers with mileage from 1970-93, and registration paperwork from 1982 and 1991. The exterior of this car is in excellent condition and stands out in a crowd. The body is very straight with great gaps throughout. The body was painted in its original factory color of Fathom Green with white stripes. The beautiful paintwork has been detailed to a show-quality shine. The paint is complemented by a new correct white vinyl top, which looks gorgeous. The front windshield, rear windshield and driver's-side quarter-glass is original and stamped 'Safety Flo-Lite.' The side glass and passenger quarter-glass has been replaced new. The car sits on the original date-code wheels, which were restored. The wheels are wrapped with correct Goodyear Wide Tread GT E70-15 bias-ply tires with white letters. The interior of this car is also in beautiful overall condition. It's finished in its original color of Midnight Green. From the information gathered, many interior pieces are still original, such as the headliner, sun visors, gauges, knobs, switches, center console, door panels, seats and seat belts. The dash pad, steering wheel, kicker panels, shifter boot, parking brake handle, pedals, clock lens and carpeting were replaced with new pieces. The engine compartment is nicely detailed throughout with many correct parts. The car is powered by the original matching-numbers DZ 302 V8 engine that runs excellent. The engine breathes through a correct-style chambered exhaust that sounds awesome. The engine is coupled to the original matching-numbers 4-speed close-ratio transmission. The power is transferred through the original matching-numbers 12-bolt posi-traction rear end with 3.73 gears. The undercarriage is highly detailed throughout with many correct parts. The steering system, suspension components and braking system were completely gone through. This example is a true pedigree that checks all the boxes. This car was recently serviced and detailed, which is documented with an invoice that's included. From the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection.
