I'm enjoying this already. Friday night is the low dollar stuff I guess. However, of interest to me was a 1977 1/2 Camaro Z28 they just sold for $15,500. The announcer said it sold so high because it was a rare 4spd.

I bought mine at the end of 1977 from a guy that had just purchased it new and then had to go overseas for a new job. I paid $4,500 for a nearly brand new one. Mine was probably even more rare than the one BJ just sold, as mine was a 4spd with A/C delete, radio Delete and window cranks instead of pwr accessories. I have not seen too many of these cars besides the two I have owned but the red one would surely be more desirable had it been cared for and survived.

I cleaned up and sold another one in the mid 90s but it was white with black interior, AC, Automatic all power options. Sold it for a few thou less than I had put into it. A real waste. I guess I had fun doing it. Then I bought the Vette.

I had a white '69 Z28 in the early eighties. It was the real deal but beat up pretty bad. It had been raced at the local strip for a long time before I got it. Welded in roll bar and cut up back seats. I tried to make it into a nice car again but in my early twenties didn't have the financial resources to make that happen. I wound up selling it for a few thousand bucks to some other guy that probably did the same.
