    My Uncles best friend has an original ( he bought it brand new) 1969 RS/SS Baldwin Motion Stage III Camaro with 4,500 miles on it. It has an L-78 427 Ci with a 4 speed Automatic, Side Pipies, a three tier spolier., and a L88 Hood. It is White with Black Motion Stripeing and a Black interior. It was and still is the meanest looking and sounding Camaro I have ever heard. He even has a document (that he has framed) that was given to him when he bought the car that said " If this car dosen't do 12 seconds in the quarter mile bring it back and we'll refund your money no questions asked". He never brought it back!

    Although they did list a single, one off 70 1/2 Z28, I think the 70 1/2 Z's were some of the strongest Camaros ever produced. I also think they are beautiful examples as well.

    • @shadvan9494
      @shadvan9494 Před 21 dnem

      Even 1970 camaros z28 are not all that rare. They made over 8000 of them in 1970 alone. Now 1970-72 big block camaros are super rare. There were 3 different 396/402 engines over 3 years. In 70 you had the L34 350HP and the L78 375HP engines. In 71 amd 72 ypu got the LS3 396/402. 300HP engine. (72 was rated at 270 but it was the same engine just using the net horsepower rating vs the 300 hp rating using the gross horsepower rating method) said and done there were less than 5000 factory big block camaros over a 3 year span.

Being somewhat rare of a sight, I couldn't resist myself and went to get a closer look. I peered into the drivers side window and saw a _column_ shifter and a _bench seat!_

    Back in 1969 a man who owned the Sunoco gas station at Southeastern Av. and Arlington Av. on Indy's south east side bought a gold 1969 ZL-1 Camaro. I worked at the ROBO car wash on Indy's east side, and he would come in and have us go all over the car getting it cleaned up so he could cruse and street race all night. It was a true bad ass car, the only mods I remember were a set of hooker headers and 10.5 slicks mounted on his stock rims.

    Back in '74 I owned a '70 Z28 with the 350/375 HP engine...NHRA said it was under rated and had it rated at 425 HP for sanctioned racing purposes. I believe NHRA was correct, I beat both SS camaro's with the L78 396/375 and the 302 Z28's and even a '69 vette with a 427. It was the fastest car I ever owned until I started buying modern Porsche GT cars.

      They only made 1864 L34 cars in 1970, and 600 L78 cars. In 71 they made 1533 Ls3 car and in 72 they made 970 ls3 cars. So all together there we less than 5000 factory big block car produce over 3 years. To put it in prespective, the made over 8000 z28s in 1970 alone. So second gen big block cars are ridiculously rare. I currently own a 1971 SS 396 4-speed camaro. Placer gold with black interior. No spoilers basic interior, and idiot lights. No console. An the basic 1 speaker radio. The first and second owners drag raced it nearly to death. It got most of it 70000 miles a quarter mile at a time. I restored it the first time in 98, I am currently doing a better resto on it now to get it as close to original as possible. I am missing a few pieces like the factory radiator, fan shroud, and air cleaner, and I only have 3 of the original poverty wheels and dog dish hub caps. But I keep looking for stuff to make it 100%

    My first car was a blue 1970 Camaro that I bought in 1986 with money I had been saving for 4 years from mowing grass, raking leaves, shoveling snow, and counting worms at a bait shop owned by a friend of my Dad.
    It was also a friend of my Dad who had the Camaro. The car had a 400 small block and I'm not sure if that was the original motor but that thing made awesome power. It also had what I think was called a slap shifter where you pulled up on a little t handle and pulled the shifter all the way back when ready to launch and then build up rpm's to certain point and then hold on. When it was time to shift you just hit forward on shifter and it kicked into next gear then you just repeated until you topped out. The speedo read up to 160 mph but the best I ever got out of it was 140 mph. That car had traction bars and those suckers worked well I was not quite 17 years old and it was very difficult not to get on gas hard when taking off or turning corners and turning corners was where I had problems because it would slide out sideways and when I countersteered to keep it on the road the rear would slide back the other way and it would fishtail until straightened out but sometimes while sliding from side to side when it was lined up straight the traction bars would take over and you could feel when it got traction and squatted for take off but when that happened the universal joint sounded like a shotgun blast when it exploded. I was young and stupid so instead of tailoring my driving to avoid this I started carrying extra u-joints and could have the car jacked up and u-joint swapped really fast. Until one day I couldn't get the driveshaft yoke out of transmission because it slipped a tooth. I was under that car for hours prying, beating, and cussing that thing when a friend saw me and stopped in his truck. He had some concrete blocks in his truck so we ended up chocking front wheels and choked a chain around the driveshaft and to his truck then he backed up tight against my car and floored it. It pulled right out and luckily didn't do any real damage so I could put it back together.
    I drove that car so hard all the time that I was constantly having to replace broken and worn parts not to mention the gas it drank. I sold it because I was having to dump every dollar I had into it and I was getting kind of afraid of my own driving recklessness and didn't want to kill or hurt anyone else or myself. Now I wish I had just been more responsible and held onto that car.

      there were no 70 1/2s. production was delayed and didn't start until late December of 1969. GM carried on producing 69 Camaros well in to into November 1969. GM officailly calls the second generation cars 1970 Camaros and those first gens built in the august 69 through November 1969, 1969 Camaros. some car guys get hung up on the 70 1/2 thing because the 64 1/2 mustang. and since Ford did it, they need to have it too. but technically there are 1969 Camaros first gens, and 1970 Camaro Second Gens built in the 1970 model year. but GM never call them "70 1/2".

      Exactly. The 67-1969 Z28's were dogs on the street. The 70 Z28 was a lot better than the 302's and did well on the streets because having no torque made them easy to launch especially with the 3speed auto and even with 4;10 gears, they spin the tires for 5ft and then head for 7000 rpm's and chirp into 2nd. while big block cars just sat there burning rubber. But with cheater slicks and nothing else, the L78 Camaro would run mid 13's and the big torque made them feel much faster and more fun to drive.

    70 1/2 SS was 402ci.
    The factory has some blocks with bore mistakes and rebored the 396 to 402 for the camaro line. They had a split front bumper and short rear spoiler.
    I wish i never sold mine.

    • @shadvan9494
      @shadvan9494 Před 21 dnem +2

      The 402 was not a bore mistake. It was cheaper to buy pistons at the 4.125 diameter size than to buy pistons at the 4.094 diameter. In the 60s gm had a ban on engines bigger than 400cid in anything but full sized cars and corvettes. So to keep the engine under 400 Cid they used a non standard size piston at 4.094 inches. And they cost more to make that a standard 4.125 inch piston. GM has always been run by bean counters. So anything to save money. They lifted the ban on engine over 400cid in midsized cars in late 1969. So they switch to the 4m125 pistons and made it a 402. But still used the SS396 branding since they spent so much money advertising it. I currently own a 1970 Camaro SS 396 4-speed. I love that car. I have had it since 1998. Also the split bumpers were the Rally Sport option. You could even get them on a online 6 if ypu order the RS package. The short spoiler was standard on 70 and 71 cars, but ypu could also get COPO 9796 tall spoiler in late 1970 and all of 71

      I agree, the 72 Z28 was very low production. It was the first year they rated horsepower from the rear wheels - at the crankshaft it was 310HP but at the rear wheels it was 255HP. Many people don’t know that so they poo poo it. The car was bad ass, solid lifter camshaft, same camshaft as the 70z28, different heads brought it down a little in compression.

    there are a few missing form this line up. specially form the 1970s. there were on 1533 SS 396 Camaros in 1971 and 970 SS396 Camaros in 72. and 1864 SS396 L34 cars in 1970. at total of 4967 big block second gen Camaros over 3 years, to put that in perspective, they made 8733 Z28s in 1970 alone. all of these big block cars are rare than the 3rd and 4th gen cars. also there was a 1970 pilot car that made it off the line and was sent to the proving grounds with a LS6 454, it end up with the legendary Smokey Yunick, and then sold to a collector. I saw it one a long time ago. it was a Norwood pilot car #500001. also, the 1975 Camaro Z86 Gymkhana suspension cars are fairly rare with only 3711 being made. 1970 & 71 AS4 deluxe rear shoulder seat belt cars are also very rare. with only 89 being made 70 and 99 being made in 71. and the 1970 and 71 COPO 9796 Spoilers all of which deserver a place on this list over anything from 1982 on, except maybe the SLP can copo 4th gen cars.

      This worry about rare can often get into the realm of ridiculous, like the one '70s green with red interior Corvette. Someone probably thought it would be a good idea (Christmas colors) but it came off as pretty bad. Rare doesn't always mean desirable.

    • @shadvan9494

      ​@tommissouri4871 I would agree that rare doesn't nessacaraly make it valuable or a good idea, but there is no way in hell a 70-72 big block car is not more sought after than a 82 pace car or 85 IROC. You could argue that a 75 F86 Gymkahana car is less desirable than an 85 IROC or 82 pace car. And for the most part I would agree on that. Fyi the F86 code 75 camaro was basically a Z28 with out z28.

      454 was never offered factory In the camaro. Only one car made it out the door with a 454. That one was pilot car N500001 and it went to the infamous Smokey Yunick for testing and was sold to a collector in the early 2000s and was never in Africa. Baldwin-Motion on the other hand did a lot of 454 LS6 swaps and those cars are also super rare. There is a Blue 74 Motion car in Iran that I have seen pictures of. So it may be a Motion car.

      Unfortunately the 1st year Camaro Z/28 had low very production numbers: if I remember correctly (reading about the history of the Camaro in specialty Camaro books) -
      only 201 (?) Z/28 hardtops were produced - with no Z/28 badges;
      and if I remember: only 1 Z/28 convertible was ever made - specifically for a GM executive (maybe John DeLorean - later he started the DeLorean).
      Now - if that convertible was given to a GM executive -
      if it had a legit VIN, and came off the assembly line as a normal production line car, then it probably still exists in a collection;
      OR - if the car was an engineering mule (VIN or no VIN), then it went back to GM and was dismantled or crushed, as manufacturers never sold their test card & engineering mules - including convertibles. (In a few cases with all US carmakers, a few eng'g test mules did escape out to the public.) ....
