I bought a plain jane '69 in 1987 for $1400. It was all numbers matching with a 350 and 350 auto. I was 17 (and dumb) at the time and instead of taking it back to the original olympic gold and white vinyl top, I had it painted red with black rally stripes. It sure looked good, but if I still had it today it would go back to the original paint scheme. Unfortunately, I sold it in '93 for $7500. Pretty good profit at the time, but wish I still had it. Haven't had a Camaro since, but still have recurring dreams of a '68 Z/28 RS someday.
