69 Camaro Base Coupe Wanted
After lurking the site for years and being a member over a year, I'm enlisting help from the member base of SCR in finding the ideal car I’m after as I see a consistently higher quality of cars and genuine, honest and trustworthy members/sellers on SCR. I'm looking to purchase another cruiser that I can take out on a sunny weekend - something that isn't a performance variant, is low maintenance and simple/original. To this end, I’m searching for a base 69 Camaro coupe. My short list of what I’m looking for is:
For transparency sake, I'm located in Western Australia. Happy to consider all cars across the US but obviously the closer to CA, the better (where the car will be shipped out of). Posting up three pictures as good examples... and just because who doesn't like looking at 69 Camaros... https://images.clickpix.org/HkTKqY.jpeg https://images.clickpix.org/HkTzs3.jpeg https://images.clickpix.org/HkTHDs.jpeg |
Good luck on your search. Not to Hijack your thread but I like that Dusk blue too ( Middle picture )

There was a very solid looking 69 RS project car posted for sale here recently.

Whilst I’m able to find SS and Z28 cars in droves, it seems finding a nice original 307/327 powered car is a more difficult task these days! Slightly opening up the scope of my search to include LM1/L65 cars. Please message if you’ve got something of interest.

Still looking :)
|
Still searching, no luck so far. Had one lead but the sellers communication (or lack thereof) put me off entirely.
|
New years bump! Still in the market. Almost pulled the trigger on one but it was sold out from under me.
Happy new year all :) |
Still on the hunt.
|
This one seems to fit what you're looking for.

It's been a while but bumping this again. Still haven't found the ideal car.
|
I have a 307 th350 car.
It is on Facebook now with detailed write up. Under my user name Chris Slawski. Take a peek |

Do you have a range of what you are looking to spend?

So only a base coupe, not something restored with modifications... crate engine, headers, wheels?

I've checked around locally by me but the '69s are in the $60s and modified quite a bit.
Maybe one of our members would consider doing a little scouting for you. |

Had a local lead that I finally got a chance to view this weekend however it unfortunately fell well short of expectations. Bumping this again.
|
Still looking for the right base coupe.
|
Opening the criteria slightly; I'll consider an L65/LM1, a 6 cylinder (230/250), or a nice survivor L48. The rest of the criteria still applies... completely original or close enough that I can return it to original, no projects, etc.
|
Tons of modified cars out. Finding one that hadn’t been messed with is certainly a tough task.

I ran into Earl (MGM Classic Cars) at a show today. He said he's helped a few folks from AU get cars.

You could ask Earl. He said that it's hard to find a stock car but you could always reach out and discuss, he's buying and selling more cars than any of us.
|
Fair point. I've reached out. Let's see where it goes.
|
Small update, and by small, I mean so small there's nothing to tell... Still looking :)
|
Bump ahead of the Camaro Nationals this weekend. Still searching for the right base coupe.
|
Another update on this. Spent the last month following up with 3 potential leads. The first car had some major fluffing going on (quick respray with lots of overspray, painted over rust, etc). The second car had some scary 80s body work and lots of filler and the third car was sold from under me after I organised an inspection but before my inspector could view the car.
Needless to say, I’m still looking. |

I saw this gem sitting in a driveway yesterday 20 minutes from my home here in PA, I have never seen this car before. I was not able to talk to anyone yesterday, but I will stop by later this week.
