I have tons of documenting pictures of the disassembly and restoration, wouldn't even know where to start.
Here are some other pictures requested.

Thanks again for the positive feedback.

Default Question
Great restoration on a great looking Camaro.

Did you obtain the NCRS docs for it? What selling dealer did it show?

Thanks,
Marty

Default NCRS Report
The NCRS search was completed and it returned undetermined as the vehicle has a Nov 68 build date. Being an early car, unfortunately the VIN is not in the archive. A little disappointing but after all the information researched, a letter from the second owner and the people that knew the car in New York and Massachusetts tells the same story.
I did not create the build, I just restored it as it spent its life.

Thank you for the questions.

What a great car with history! I have a non X code 69 Z/28 (Nov. 68) . No NCRS for mine either. That gold car is killer! Well done and more.

Default Thank you
Thank you fellow members for all the positive comments. When I originally purchased the car I was a little hesitant about the colour. I have owned and restored a lot of First Gen Camaros with your typical sought after colours and I can honestly say the Olympic Gold has grown on me and everyone who has seen the car. Thanks again!
