I almost bought one of those once, in the SS396 version. But I didn't like the way the owner had modded it with drag racing in mind. I'm more about freeway cruising and going around corners. Undoing all that and redoing it my way would have been too expensive.
My father restores old Camaros. He had one of those except red with black bumblebee stripes (and no SS) and a '69 SS (yellow with black racing stripes). He sold both of them to buy his latest project car, a '67 RS/SS convertible.
My first car was a 1969 Camaro RS. Hugger Orange with a black vinyl top. Had the auto on the console and the black/white houndstooth interior. Oh how I wish I could have it back!
I loved my first car. I bought it when I was only 15 for $125.00! It needed a little body work, but it turned out cherry! Wish I could find another at a reasonable price. Unfortunately, mine started out with the Windsor motor in it, but ended up with the Cleveland motor it should have had in the first place!
