Up for sale is a very nice affordable 1969 Camaro.
X11D80 Trim code D80 - Air Spoiler Equipment (when used not all cars built with spoilers were coded)
I recently acquired the car and it is a means to an end for
me because I am saving to buy a fastback Mustang or 68-69 Chevelle. There has been a lot of time
and money put into this car, it has many new parts and it is very close to
being a high dollar car.
I have a reasonable reserve on the car, and whomever buys it will always be able to get there investment back. And with some work there is much potential to profit if that is what you want.
I am going to be completely honest and forthcoming on what I
know about the car, because I know it is a big deal buying a car online and I
want you to be well informed so you can feel good about your decision to buy
this car.
It is my opinion based on several years of experience in the
mechanical world and my experience with Mustangs that this car is a solid
7.0-7.5 on a scale of 1-10, with the potential of being an 8-8.5 easily.
The car runs great, sounds great and looks like a 30,000 car
but it is not perfect. I will start by listing the major components and what I
know about them.
It has front disc brakes,(new) factory 350 engine, power
steering, and a 12 bolt rear end. It is a non a.c. car. It is a factory X11 trim code and original V8 car with a blue color (Dusk Blue). Factory black interior.I am not sure if it is a real SS, but it has all the items on it that I know about.
I encourage you to come see this car,
but I understand you may not be able to so I will give very detailed
descriptions. Please read my terms at the end so we all understand the process
and can have some fun buying as well as selling.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME VIA E-MAIL AND I
WILL GIVE YOU MY NUMBER AND WE CAN TALK.

Engine:
It has a strong
running 350 with an HEI distributor, headers, and a Carter AFB carburetor with
a Weiland intake. There is no visible smoke or major leaks at this time. It sounds great and seems to have been built
with a higher duration cam. I was told the engine was rebuilt by the previous
owner but I do not have the documentation to back that up. I have just had the
headers removed and had new perma-torque gaskets installed.
Rear End:
The rear end is in great shape and it is a 12 bolt. I am not
sure if it is posi or what the ratio is. It has no leaks and makes no weird
noise.
Transmission:
The transmission is a 700R4 4 speed automatic with a Brand
New B&M Ratchet shifter. The transmission shifts fantastic and has a nice
freeway cruising speed. I took the car to a local reputable transmission shop
for an inspection and to make sure that the B&M shifter is adjusted correctly.
I was told, and believe that the transmission was rebuilt using high
performance parts. It works great and does not leak.
Interior:
The interior is in really nice shape. It does need a
headliner and I will have it done if I do not sell it. It has a new carpet and
the seats are in great condition. I do not believe that they have been
re-upholstered, there are no visible tears or rips that I can see. The dash pad
is in great shape and may be new, the lower dash looks like new. It does have
an aftermarket din style radio and it works but does not sound all that good.
The steering wheel is a wood original style and is new. It has an aftermarket
tach, also oil pressure and water temp gauges that work great. All the factory
gauges seem to work well, speedo, and gas gauge. The key switch works great but
seems a little loose. The heater works well and the floor vents also work well.
The Astro vents are a little worn, but I have new ones still in the box that go
with the car. The windshield wipers work but the passenger one does not move.
Not sure what it is at this time. The doors open and shut well, and I have
installed new strikers. It looks like new felts and rubber bumpers and the
window rubber looks good. The door panels are in great shape, the rear quarter panels and sill panels are out and I have them and they are in great shape. I may have the headliner put in sometime soon if it does not sell here. With a new
headliner and some easy tinkering the interior could be a 9.0 out of 10 or even
a 10! It is a factory black trim code.
Exterior:
The exterior of the car is almost perfect! The fenders are
new and the doors are nice and straight and appear to have no major filler or
obvious bodywork. It has the front chin spoiler as well as the SS rear spoiler.
Both quarters have been replaced and it looks great. I was told that the floor
pan was also replaced and looks great from inside and underneath the car. The
trunk lid shuts perfect and looks great as well as the rear of the car. No body
cancer or rust bubbles that I can see. I ran a magnet across the car and it
passed my test. The paint is very nice, I will leave that up to your
interpretation, but I think it is better than driver quality. It does have
flaws but I would not worry about it at all. I will try to take pics of all the
little items I can see, but I am not asking 30,000 for this car. The front
header panel has a dent in it, but I have a new one that goes with the car. All
the trim looks new or very good original. All the glass is in good condition
with no cracks or major flaws. It has a steel cowl induction hood that fits and
looks great. The paint is a beautiful yellow that has been cut and buffed. All
the external lights work well. The front core support looks nice and has no
signs of ever being hit. The car has all the Super Sport trim and badges. The
grill is perfect. The black vinyl top looks perfect as well does the trim
surrounding it.
Drivetrain/Brakes
Exhaust:
I took the car to a reputable shop and had the front brakes
done. New master cylinder, new calipers, new and new rotors. They told me that
all the suspension parts look NEW! The exhaust is new and it has been lowered
about 2” I have purchased the parts to have it brought back to the factory
height and If you buy the car and like it low I will leave it but I will give you the parts.
$400.00, front and rear springs. If it does not sell I will have it done next
week. The wheels are factory rally wheels, 15 X 7 in the front and 15 X 10 in
the rear. The rear tires are new and the front are about 50%. Sub-frame connectors to strengthen the body, the appear to be new.
The car is now at the tire shop getting some Cooper raised white letter tires put on it. I will make sure to post the pics as soon as I get it back tomorrow.
I HAVE LOTS OF PICTURES AND I WILL SEND YOU ANYTHING YOU NEED TO HELP MAKE YOUR DECISION TO BUY THIS CAR!
Thank You!
