If anything I’d love to see the CHs on your Nova. That would look SO cherry. For the Camaro I suggest Ronal Bears. ---

> [@cougarspeed](#): > > My budget is somewhat tight after my impulsive purchase of another car but I will see what I can do. Any tips? 🙂 Look for a used T-56 out of say a 95+ Camaro. Bolts in and with slight modifications you can use a manual clutch. Just piece it together when you find parts.

> [@slo ride](#): > > i think it always had the garage…they did a renovation at some point though Just finished renovation and boy what a shit show that was. Everything turned out pretty good but I really feel bad for the owner. Company doing the job was taking advantage big time. Got him to put up wayyy more $ then he should have then just stopped showing up mid reno for like 6 months. Not joking. Anyhow a 90day timeline job is finished 1.5 years later and a crazy amount over budget. Can’t say if it always had the garage but I believe it did. ---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ---------- > [@joelster](#): > > Don’t do anything crazy until you can verify the heritage of the '69.

> [@cougarspeed](#): > > I’ll check… But you know that stuff doesn’t mean a whole lot to me. But I guess if I was about to devalue the hell out of it I should know. It would suck to find out that it’s a real '69 Z28 or an SS396 car, after you roll the fenders for big tires, or do some other mod that requires surgery to repair. I’d bet money it’s a real SS 350, judging by how clean it is. Nobody clones an SS 350, they always clone the big dogs, like the Z’s, the 396’s and the COPO’s. The vast majority of '69 Camaro’s were bargain basement cars that had inline 6’s in them, or 327’s/350’s non-SS’s. A perfect SS 350 that has paperwork, and is restored correctly can still fetch $40-$45k. They are still desirable, just overshadowed by the other engines. Here’s a few to watch that are tastefully modded like yours: [http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1969-Chevy-Camaro-SS-Rebuilt-350c-i-4-Speed-Manual-/261189566807?pt=US\_Cars\_Trucks&hash=item3cd01c8157](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1969-Chevy-Camaro-SS-Rebuilt-350c-i-4-Speed-Manual-/261189566807?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item3cd01c8157) [http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1969-Chevy-Camaro-SS-350-350-PS-PDB-Super-Solid-Great-Driver-MUST-SEE-/140944604403?pt=US\_Cars\_Trucks&hash=item20d0f3fcf3](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1969-Chevy-Camaro-SS-350-350-PS-PDB-Super-Solid-Great-Driver-MUST-SEE-/140944604403?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item20d0f3fcf3) ---

Joelster, I just looked and my brief info shows it is an X11 and the vin indicates that it is a factory V8 car. I couldnt get a good pic. Looks like they painted it. If you cant get what you need from these I will remove it and get a proper pic. Post up what you figure out! ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo42_zpsa82796f4.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo42_zpsa82796f4.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo3_zpse519b17b.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo3_zpse519b17b.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo2_zps86267020.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo2_zps86267020.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo1_zps07dc4873.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/photo1_zps07dc4873.jpg) ---

Yep I read that too. So looks like it is a factory V8 car with X11 package but not an SS. Still sweet that it is a real V8 car. Get out the sawzall 🙂 ---
