Absolutely Outstanding

My favorite car in the world.

Beautiful car

Speechless !!!

Dream Machine

Love that car. Would cost more than my house!

The oil fill tube is for a 1968 Z-28, not a 1969, which had the oil fill hole in the left valve cover, as this card does as well. Two oil fill holes on the same engine? Something seems amiss here.

The twin 4-barrel Holly's were just right for a cross-ram Z28. Keep in mind that the stock version of those crabs had vacuum secondaries, so most of the time you were actually running on 4 barrels... not 8. The secondaries on both carbs didn't open up unless you were really revving the motor. Hey, it's not a family car. It's a gas guzzling monster and man, what a sweet ride. This comment iscoming from a former owner of a '69 Z. Hottest car that I've ever owned, bar none.

Jeff....I miss your presentations and post. You are a true American muscle car enthusiast

One of my favorite car's of all time!!👍👍😎

Wow! Talk about a chance viewing leading to a lengthy and enjoyable trip down memory lane. I was a freshman in college (GMI in Flint, Michigan) and one of my fraternity brothers had a father who was some sort of big shot at GM (they were somewhat common at GMI back then) and he had scored a 1967 Z28 in a company car resale. It was yellow with black stripes, a black vinyl interior, and a black vinyl top. I don't remember the carburetor, but it had headers. a fancy cowl intake cold air system, and a 2.20 first gear M22 Rockcrusher. If it wasn't running, there was little to give indication as to its potential besides the stripes. There was no markings indicating the engine size and it didn't even have the little crest over the Camaro script on the front quarters that the cars with the basic 230 6 cylinder had. But there was no question when it was running. The cam had to be pretty radical, because the idle was rough and lumpy and high. And it was loud. I enjoyed reading all the comments about people who had encountered or owned Z28s. I remember that this car was a real SOB to get off the line. The combination of the 2.20 low gear, the radical cam, and the high volume carburetor made it hard to launch, and even when you were successful, the results (initially through low gear) were less than stellar. It also didn't help that it almost took both legs to depress the clutch and the clutch was "grabby." ...But once you managed to launch and get the RPMs up, the car transformed into something mythical and magical. And (for it's time) it had a precision in handling that was unlike anything I'd ever experienced before. Winding trough small twisty back roads in Southeast Michigan in the fall was memorable now, and remains memorable even more than fifty years later. So, what happened to this car? Damned if I know. But this fraternity brother apparently had a "silver spoon in his mouth" and it may have proved to be a disadvantage; because he never really "dug in" and washed out of GMI shortly after entering for grades. ...One of those cases where "being hungry" compensated for perhaps even being "the sharpest knife in the box" or "the guy with the coolest car." All I remember is the draft breathing down my neck with the promise of a scholarship to "Saigon U." if I didn't perform. I didn't need any additional inspiration or motivation for this short term goal.

Dan Perron in Charleston, SC bought a 1967 X-Ram, dual-4 barrel, chambered exhaust Z/28 and turned it into a M/E drag car named 'LITTLE HERO' that ran 10.30 @ 3299 Lbs with a 287 cid SBC

My favorite Camaro ever made other than a 69 ZL-1 is a 69 Z28. Such a beautiful car

My machinist bought one(single carb) in the mid 70’s in high school, said it was a beast...

My cross ram was not as nice as this one, but it was pretty cool. Had it in 2000 and most of my parts came from Rick's Camaro's . The air filter back then was $500 for a reproduction. Changed it to a single four barrel and was more manageable on the street.

@thewhox56 Yes, they were either dealer installed or installed by the owner. Never from the factory. Chevy had to make them available for racing purposes ;-)

That is a gorgeous car.My fav Camaro ever made is a 69 Z/28. Thats exactly the way id want it NOS parts used and/or original restored parts.Nice price for a cross ram car also :D

i find it strange there are 2 oil fill locations on the engine. i thought only the 67-68 302's had the "tube" style oil filler..

@EliteComputerBuilds We don't take in outside resto jobs. We can barely keep up with our cars for sale. Thanks for checking out the vid's!!

Finally some one that got the rear stripes right!

I heard somewhere that the cross ram came from the factory in the trunk.

I agree with some comments..x.77 cars had no chrome on welds and the cross ram was not on this car..it had a 780 Holley carb and 4bbl intake original..car would have been better with original stuff..no jl8 brakes either...it sounds good but no headers on stock z cars..too many non.stock items.r

anyone notice the tach shows a 6000 redline, when actual Z-28 tachs have a 6500 redline ? both of mine were 6500. i think this one might be a very well done clone.

I think I see a few things wrong with this car. The X77 Z28 did not come with the chrome style package and this car has it such as the chrome fender gills. Only the X33 Z's had those.

@Boredout454 Very wrong. The 1969 Camaro Indy Pace Car came stock with the cowl hood. I purchased my second 1969 Z/28 in August '69 and it came to the dealership with the cowl hood [as an option ]. I'm sure you remember the 1970 Camaro went with a complete body change and the 302cuin engine was replaced with the 350cuin. There is no way a '69 cowl hood would fit a '70 Camaro.

My Uncles 1969 Z28 302 4spd stage 2 solid lifter cam. It was very fast!!

You poor bastard, I'm in the process of building a 302 using a vortec block chevy and vortec 76cc heads. But being a somewhat decent mechanic who is a chevy guy, I'm planning on doing a 302 ci with twin turbo and fuel injection.

Gorgeous!

great video Jeff. amazing car.

Is it still available

I’ve got a 68 302, 73,000 mi owned 45 yrs 31 aug 21 was 22 when I bought it for $1,900.00 1/4 mile, 13.05 @ 115 , 7500 in 3rd, with 9” slicks L stock nat’l index 12.9 for L/STOCK IN 77-78! Ready to restore, lots of new parts etc.

I think 2 4 barrels is too much gas for a 302 regardless of the cam but that car is super are with that system-- nice paint too

Jeff: I have owned two 1969 Camaro Z/28s,both purchased new in 1969 at Rosenthal Chevrolet in Arlington,VA. Is your Z a late build? The reason I asked is because I don't recognize the primary gauges on your car. I,by no means, don't want to start a war with everyone that reads this I'm simply asking a question.

Anything thats period correct is worth more these cars are strictly investment show cars!!! And the Z28 is an awesome muscle car!!! Better looking than the corvette as far as im concerned!!!

@Boredout454 Thanks for your reply it's nice to get a friendly one every now and then.

jiminy cricket that's nice

I wouldn't spend a penny on a radio in that car! I had 2 and don't even know if the radios worked!

I have had two friends who had these Z-28's brand new in 1969. The x-ram and the headers were not installed by the factory or the dealers. When the cars were delivered the manifold and headers were in the trunk. Not one of these cars had headers installed from the factory.

Hey Jeff, I love this Z. Very nice but I would highly recommend fixing that vacuum line that goes to the brake booster. Not a hater just noticed. Tight pinch on vac is never good. Keep up the good work.

this is wrong. Z stripes on a 69 in the rear are wider than the front.

Rear disc brakes & dual 4 barrel cabs?? I dont think so. That manifold & carbs look brand new aftermarket... Never seen a z28 with those options and I've never heard ANYONE TALK ABOUT IT...

@MrRueruerue1367 ok, I will check it out, thanks!

My dad had the same car his had the painted bumpers and no consol 4 speed 4 wheel disc bought new from yenko dealership in canonsburg PA. Hes kicking him self for saling it

I'm having trouble getting a chevy intake or chevy exhaust manifolds that bolt up. Did Pontiac. Buick or Cadillac or Corvette have something that bolts up? I pulled these heads from a Camaro, but there was no intake manifold, I found out that big block headers don't even come close to bolting up the intake I can only describe as a cross ram. The intake manifold looks like a cross ram, but won't bolt up to chevy small block. I've put a chevy distributor and carburetors on it. That's all that fits. Oh, chevy oil pans fit, but chevy valve covers dont fit. Will caddy covers fut?

JL8 Disc rear end,should have been standard on every V8 Camaro / Trans Am muscle car! Trans Am had to wait until '78! I tell you even with a stock motor the 77 Trans Am I had sucked with rear drums!

This Z-28 is so perfect it is wrong! Man what I'd give to own it.

Those taillights are incorrect.

Where's the smog pump?

hard to get big money for them. I saw a 1 owner 69 Z with the factory disk brake setup that looked near new. Zero rust .he couldnt get 18K for it at the Zephyrhills auction in Fl

Nice

WOW!!!!! F*CK YEA!!! Not a fan of the color, but what a machine!!!

OK, so what's the toggle switch in the trunk lid for??

Your prices are way to high

Now I beg to differ with the guy that said these cars were slow off the line I had the pleasure of riding in the one my aunts husband had and he worked at a GM plant anyway she drove that thing like a bat out of hell and kicked many mustangs and even other cars with larger displacements ass on the streets so I'm sorry bruh I gotta disagree with you on that one the way that thing pulled you would have swore it was a big block powered car.

LOL, "302 C.I. rated @465 hp!"...really?

Nice and rare but fix the brake light switch

Did not come from the factory with duel carbs, that was an over the counter item sold by Chevy.

The best z28 I have ever seen.

It would be more authentic if it had an 8 Track

@jpo2084028 Thanks. You are correct. This car was a COPO ordered car with 140 mph speedo and other distinctions.

Is it my imagination or does this guy sound like Obama? I'm talking about his voice only, not political views. The difference is he's not selling us a load of crap!

Why are the tail lights on?

The cross ram option makes it even rarer..... A true 💎 gem❤👌👌👌💪💪💪👍👍👍☝☝☝☝🇺🇸

Hey Jeff whats the price?

Ha!! Real car guy...

@masterkorp No, it's required! ;-) Better than Viagra!

Afraid to ask but how much?Know worth every pennny !!!

@XboobtubeX Those were only on the 1970 - 71 Chevelles. Its just a good old cowl induction.

lol....yes he does......

The rear stripes on this car are wrong also!! They should line up with the stripes on the hood! Not the edge of the rear window glass!! But still a very nice piece!!

@Boredout454 Wrong.

Ha I want response back 2 c wt u think. I'm gifted playing with toys. Early 70s I bought a 69 z28 . It had a burnt valve. I took the 2o2 heads off put a set of 194 early double humps smaller chambers 62cc new valves 3 angled big springs done nice port job 2elebrock.single plane intake . Lot work top an down 750 Holley double pumper carb dual point distributor chevy phase 2 cam springs lifters hooker headers trust mufflers . 2 ring munchie r 2.52 1st munchie 4.88 gears trackson bars roller rockers Shafer clutch pressure plate race fan bullies. Under hood only thing u notice was intake. Do u think it run good. U bet ur sweet ass. Them aar cudas challengers 340 an 440 69 an 70 boss mustang's 302 an 351 gtos gtxs 454 chevelles lt1 Camaro wt ever on the street different places I was n ass kicking mode. Lol I'm a good driver means alot balls 2 the wall. The good ole days gone. That i94 ported heads on a 302 running on the street is the pig n the poke LOL. WISH SOMEBODY TRY THIS AN REPORT BACK.

Do NOT like the green. I prefer the 1968 Z-28. I Prefer, red, yellow, blue. Wrong alternator bracket.

@XboobtubeX Flappers on cowl induction Chevrolet products was not released until 1970 no never.

Sounds terrible.

is it wrong to have a bonner whn you started that beast ?

Why oh why did they keep those ugly bumper guards on this car?

It's dumb to run duel carburetors on the street.

Not that fast had one zl11le will smoke it
