This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro convertible was reportedly purchased from its original owner by the seller’s brother in the 1970s, transferred to their father in 1990, and has been owned by the seller’s sister since 2017. The car is finished in Rally Green and powered by a 307ci V8 paired with a 2-speed automatic transmission, and factory equipment includes manual steering and 4-wheel drum brakes. A recent service after 27 years of storage included a fuel tank cleaning as well as installation of new spark plugs, points, coils, and more. This Camaro shows just over 78,500 miles and is offered with transferable New York registration in the name of the seller’s sister.
A repaint in Rally Green was completed in 1990, and the seller suspects that bodywork was performed around the rear wheel wells in preparation for the job. A replacement black soft top was fitted at the same time, and is shown both raised and lowered in the photo gallery below.
This Camaro sits on a set of factory steel wheels with polished hubcaps, which are currently mounted with an older set of thin whitewall tires. Paint blisters are pictured on the rear fenders.
The factory-style black vinyl seat upholstery is reported to be free of tears, and is accented with matching black carpeting and plastic trim. Noted flaws consist of deformation on the front edge of the padded rubber dashboard as well as an inoperable windshield washer switch.
The 5-digit odometer shows just over 78,500 miles, which is accurate based on over 40 years of family ownership according to the seller. An older aftermarket radio has replaced the original.
The 307ci V8 is capped with a 2-barrel carburetor and sends power to the rear wheels through a 2-speed automatic transmission. A recent refreshment after 27 years of storage included draining and cleaning the fuel tank, an oil change, and a brake check as well as replacement of the fuel filter, spark plugs, points, and ignition coil. The car then passed a New York state inspection. Remaining issues include rough running, leaks from the rear main seal and differential, and pulling from the brakes according to the seller’s mechanic.
The seller states that rust of varying degrees is present in front of the dashboard at the firewall, in the rear wheel wells, and on the inner trunk floor, including a hole directly behind the left front-wheel and holes in the muffler, as highlighted in pictures.
