OTHER INFORMATION:THIS CAR WAS RECENTLY SERVICED AND DETAILED. THE CAR I HAVE PERSONALLY DRIVEN ON LONG TRIPS IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS. I HAVE REBUILT THE BRAKE SYSTEM, CARBS AND FUEL SYSTEM. THEN ENGINE IS LOW MILEAGE BUILT UP WITH 2X4 1200 CFM CROSS RAM AND RUNS GREAT ON PUMP GAS. EXHAUST IS LOPY AND STRONG SOUNDING, BUT NOT ANNOYING LOUD. CAR HAS EXHAUST TUCKED UP ABOVE REAR AXLE LIKE GM DID IT BACK IN 1967-1969 ON THESE CAMAROS. THE CAR SOUNDS LIKE AND REVS LIKE MY DADS 1969 Z/28 WITH FACTORY CHAMBERED PIPE EXHAUST. IT REVS FAST AND COMES ALIVE 3500+RPM. FUN TO DRIVE WITH CLOSE RATIO M21 MUNCIE. THIS CAR DRAWS A LOT OF ATTENTION DRIVING IT AROUND TOWN--WOULD MAKE AN AWESOME CAR CLUB SHOW CAR FOR CRUISE IN MEETS OR COULD BE PUT BACK IN COMPETION AGAIN AS PROFESSION SHOW CAR. THIS CAR WON 4TH PLACE IN THE 1980'S IN THE INTERNATIONAL SHOW CAR ASSOCIATION. 4TH PLACE MAY NOT SOUND THAT IMPRESSIVE, BUT TO GET IN TOP PLACEMENT WITH ISCA--THIS IS QUITE AN ACCOMPLISHMENT.
