Love the car and especially the color! I see my man catching flak in the comments, about putting a big block and automatic in a z/28. Bro, it's your build do what you like! I love the taillights and mirrors also. Personally I prefer the 67 - 68 body style with a rally sport front end.

@@AutotopiaLA Bro! How did you slip up with the 69 or 68 question? I know personally it took me awhile to see the difference between a 67 and 68 Camaro. Front turning signals, round versus oval. But the 69 front, rear and sides, even the RS package. Looks different from the 67-68 models.

After coming to the conclusion the '69 is too expensive, I've been thinking the '67-'68s are the way to go and you get "more car for the price" choosing from the first two model years. This video hit the right spot!

@cbutler4645 2 жыл бұрын

True they are expensive but get what you truly want. I bought my 69 Camaro 2 years ago right before the pandemic. There are some badass 67 and 68s out there but if you want the 69 just bite the bullet and do it...you won't regret it.

@rayman1230 2 жыл бұрын

@@AutotopiaLA agreed. Plus, if your dropping that much money on a ‘69, why not get a new one from Dynacorn ? New metal, build it the way you want. It’s already apart so attention to detail will be there and nothing will get missed as well. No need to feel like your cutting up an original either. All around, unless I was going for a complete original restoration, I wouldn’t even waste the money in anything other then Dynacorn Industries 67-69 camaro, 65-69 mustang, 67-69 firebird ( all three platforms avail in hardtop or convertible) 70 challenger, among a couple other models.
