Chuck thanks for sharing these pictures.
I too would like to see both of those clips reproduced.
Erics Camaro looks outstanding.Very authentic & I notice a 1969 Upper Alt. Bkt. was used.

Good eye on the alt bracket......Of the ?? unknown number of 1970 Camaro L-78's still around, there is only one I know that is concours restored. Joey Gray from North Carolina will have his Hugger Orange version at Carlisle for LEGENDS judging and all of us to oogle over......
Eric's above car was a race car, that he did a body on resto. He acquired the needed removed parts from several sources. I better let him give any more detail, as I do not have the FACTS.....
Almost every other L-78 that I know of (maybe 12-15) is either in need of restoration, been painted wrong color, missing original powertrain, air cleaner, wheels, etc etc.
There is the LOW milage Citrus Green 70 L-78 Camaro that Don Stowers reassembled, quite a while back.....I've lost track of it, but it had quite the story....

Two 70/L78 Camaro’s in the same place at the same time. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
When’s the last time that happened?

Bob-- that is because the L-78 does not have a Custom Interior. I quote from NastyZ28.com....

"1970 Z87 Custom Interior - Includes deluxe seat (in cloth or vinyl) and sidewall trim; glove compartment light and additional instrument cluster lighting; wood grained accents on instrument cluster, steering wheel and door trim panels; luggage compartment mat plus special engine compartment, hood and interior insulation."

Great...now I have to tear the insulation off mine !!!

If you find a person who can make these pcv hose clips Gm part # 3972132 I would like to purchase a couple myself. I have a 1970 Nova assembly manual that shows the date these clips began use 1-25-70 on the L78. In the NA9 section it shows Novas using a single clip for a SBC on the front of the air cleaner with the same part #. I could not find these clips or anyone who made them so I used (2) repro 69 style pcv holders that attach to front right side carb stud with a vise and careful bending and dremmel grinding made some nice alternative ones that work fine and look correct until someone comes out with them. My manual shows the Hockey stick style smog tubes also.
