I do like the color comb, but it would look far better with color keyed stamped steel 'Z28' mags. Or even Olds rally wheels like the one in the spare.

You're user name is coincidental regarding this comment. More people will care about a mid 70's F-body over a similar vintage GM Full Size.

What's with the insults? Nobody is making any such comparisons, I'm just speaking about the market for mid-70s Camaros, and it sure as hell ain't that strong.

Um, yes, in my locale that car will sell for a price within $2500 of his asking price. I also wonder how the owner came across the 7k figure as well.

As for the "insult" part, you kicked it off with the broad side "why would anyone care". Go cry to a moderator about me you 'know it all'

Jesus, you are an awfully testy SOB, aren't you? Calm down, you're making yourself look bad. It's embarrassing for you. Nobody insulted you, nobody is crying, so get over yourself.

Perhaps you missed the context of my comment - Why would anyone care how many were made? I wasn't disparaging anyone here, I was disparaging the seller of that Camaro for trying to make something of nothing to make his car seem more valuable. It's a bland Camaro in a bland body style with a bland Chevy 350 in it, and a terrible paint scheme. It's a dime a dozen car that few people are looking for, especially at that price. Most people are not going to want that car in that paint scheme. All red or all black? Yeah, that'd be a seller. Not with that terrible paint.

Oh, I like the car, a bit overpriced, but wouldn't kick it out in the rain. I was just wondering how the seller came up with the 7000 built, since I don't think Chivvy has anything like Marti, or PHS.
