1969 Camaro JL8 option question

[iluv69s]

Any known L-78 or pacer JL-8's?

I almost bought a fathom green L-78 at carlisle many years ago. The car came with original paperwork, window sticker, etc. Even had a form with the listed options that the salesman ordered for the buyer. One option was JL-8, but when delivered. the car came without the rear discs (because the option apparently was cancelled I assume).

Anyone remember that car? If my memory is correct, it had Deluxe interior, no console, center tach and cowl hood, 4.10 rear. I believe m-22 also. Came with window sticker. Had rust around the rear window. Was 3800 bucks. I offered 3500 which was all I had on me. Guy would not even take a deposit. I left that day and drove two hours home and went back the next day with full 3800, but it was sold.

Was that about 1987-ish? I remember a similar car - pretty rusty too. As I recall the guy left all the paperwork including the title on the dashboard overnight and the paperwork was stolen.

Could have been.. car needed sheetmetal in the rear yes. Back then that scared everyone away. They did not make any repo parts yet or that rear panel between the rear window. But it ran real nice!

....the car and the guy were gone the next day when I went back.

Never heard about car again.
