Beautiful car, your fortunate to have kept it all of these years. I know I wish I had kept my first car. From the story about the car I gather that it was originally red?

Dave - When my brother bought the car it had been repainted red with black stripes. One of the owners removed the houndstooth inserts and sewed in black vinyl. It is now sporting it's original "threads". I will scan a picture on Monday of it when we got it.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I'm happy to be part of this crowd.

Very nice looking car, reminds me of one back in Illinois, that has for years sat behind a friends house over the last 20 years or so. Another one of those its not for sale and will be back on the road someday

Neat car! One of my best memories of last summer was when my dealership was having a "midnight madness" sale and I had been at the dealership for like 30 hours at that point in two days. I heard this rumble and when I looked out the showroom window I saw this Ralley Green 69 Z28 with Darren behind the wheel! He took me for a ride and I have to tell you that all the agrivation of the last 30 hours just seemed to melt away! Isn't that what our cars are all about? Thanks D!

Nice! Whats the build date on that car? Looks like an early production 69 walnut steering wheel.

Frank - Glad I was able to shed some of the that day. Any time bud. Perhaps that ride I gave you might get me a credit in a certain red nova?

Joe it's 2nd week Feb. The steering wheel is not original to the car but it was on it when we bought it. It had the standard wheel. Funny it's a perfect fit period wise though. Here is the trim tag info.
