1968 Camaro Z/28 Survivor Race Car 19,000 Miles

The Cam I used came as a recommendation from Hubleyman and the machine shop. D

I believe that is the camshaft Jerry M runs in his 67 Z/28 which runs in D/ Stock eliminator. Must work pretty well, as he is has gone 10.45 at 126+.

thanks for that cam info, I will get that one and sell the one I got.
really appreciate it.

Yes hoping it helps with dead-stop-take-off. That's what I was told it would do. ...

Right Firewall area after cleaning. No 2nd Hidden VIN in the area that I could find. I will look again around the whole area. D

Body Part Stamp. 2nd Week of June? ... D

I have to ask, is it typical the door panel and dash shade of blue does not ideally match the seat color, and carpet? door panels look mint and back seat looks mint.

Right same cam but those Stock Eliminator cams are completely different duration wise.

I never see anything match. Door panels, Seats, Door handle bases and pads, kick panels, Dash, head liner etc. Not in 717 medium blue anyway. I think because they are all different material make-up and texture.
Some are smoothish plastic, some are rough plastic, then vinyl etc. Then you add years of aging and it's over doneso. The only time it all matches very close is when you buy aftermarket.
Our VINS are about 9,000 apart? D

Thanks Danny, I kinda figured. This is why I like original cars.
Our vins are more in the range of 8300 or so apart. Your guess was dang good.
The selling dealer of my car (Nickey Chevrolet) told the owner that he is on the edge of getting his order filled/processed and would he be ok with a 69. So I guess this was bumping up against the end.
