Looking for a Dads old 396 Camaro

[newsatten]

Im trying to find any info on my Dad's old Chevy, its a Blue 67/68 396 SS Camaro SYW 94F , he brought it from the Folkeststone area circa 76'77' ??
any body know the car? its currently taxed so still here and i assume still being used!

My dads been gone 11 odd years now,

[newsatten]

Got a hit from Rods and Sods, and a pic from 2019, still the same!
side pipes are gone but looks unchanged over than that!

[newsatten]

Dont know? theres a pic on Flicker by a guy that does car pics, its dated 2019, its parked out a posh house, i could'nt work out how to try and contact the guy in question??

A lot of this social media stuff is way over my head!

[newsatten]

Cheers for that! still looks pretty good, side pipes have gone, but pretty much the same!
yeah il have a go !..........................

[newsatten]

Its crossed my mind! and yeah to see it well the same? brought loads of old school stuff back! for a second i was back on the boats, and the world was such a better place ..................................................................

What a fab pair they would make,

[newsatten]

Not really, but to be honest ive been a bit side tracked with work and stuff!

never got any feed back from the photo site, i did think i may have got lucky with the Classic Camaro Club, still its early days,

[newsatten]

Aw , always a very tough thing to do,
one of the main reasons i never got another dog when my last Lab passed, she was a fabulous gun dog, had sixth sense that was uncanny !
Loved that dog, my best mate.

My Son in Law is a Vet , and keeps banging on about us getting a mutt, we have there redlab from time to time, she a lovely animal , when my knee's fixed maybe we'l get another ,

Veterinary what a great racket that is !


Yeah the White chally, is a clone, 318 , but yeah all these cars are 30K tops, there's a turd Nova at 60K ffs............................
Semi matt Charger at 75 ish, what are these people smoking ..............................................................................


Anyway rant over wrong thread
I'l get back on the 68' hunt at some point,

Yeah the White car was 38000, but been reducing every couple of months, its up the M2 from me in Rochester , makes one wonder what the Camaro would be worth? seemingly unmessed with for 40 odd years, 396 SS/RS maybe only second to a DZ302 ??? i know Copo cars are the holy grail but 95% of them are fake!

My old man had dozens of interesting cars over the years but this one was a bit special , i never got any reply from my Ex regarding the photos so probably wont ever be able to search out my old rag top, which is a shame as dad and i owned them at the same time ................

[newsatten]

Ive joined the Classic Camaro forum, once my accounts activated i'l ask around!
Felt a bit like a fraud lol, but hey ho i used to be a Camaro owner and one never knows i may get another, 69' 302 with a M22 lol..............to do
like you bored !
Far to cold outside to do naff all to do, but watch the snow melt ! .......................................

[newsatten]

Well ive put the feelers out, dont look like the CCC, is overly proactive on the early cars, so not holding my breath !
But one never knows, worth a punt!
i did them em im on the Dark Side,

Blimey weve had a fair old bit of snow here, had it all week, hopefully its stopped now, as its supposed to be 9c by Monday!

And yes , id love a 302, but a 350 4 speed would also do! 69' is the year, wicked looking car after the face lift , car looks lower, wider,meaner !

Dream time again ! nah could'nt afford one, and my biggest issue , just one garage! no that aint happening ..............................

Your arm will be fine, had my first one over a month ago, as you keep saying why cant we be satisfied, and enjoy what weve got
This constant quest lol............................................

got to be a 69' for me, my first V8 was a 67'327................ then i got a mint 68' in a very pale primrose colour, a 4 speed but a 6 banger, it was a Belgium
car, speedo in K's lovely thing, drove perfect, the 69' was a rag top,

as i said dreaming, my rubbish budget is far to small, even if i ticked up another 7k i still would be short!........................

[newsatten]

Yeah i'l try again at some point, dont think the CCC will produce any response, almost no chatter on the gen 1 section???
looks like the MMA is THE muscle car forum, constant talk, things going on etc,

Its not that much of a deal really,

The Black cars a wicked looking machine, 69' perfect........................................................................................
the owners a lucky guy,

RR thanks for dragging up the TA again , see the black 400 is back up for sale, these things must be a disappointment if people are buying them based on the Bull S--- myth's that have sprung up around them ,

Oooppp's wrong thread again

[newsatten]

Cheers son, tbh im not the best at these computer type things!
normally would get my boy to do it!

I did look at flicka again, apparently my email address is invalid ??? so i cant signup/log on etc,


but thanks, nice to know its still here, and has'nt strayed to far...................................

dont get any easier does it! .......................

And i think my old man would have loved that Black 69'

[newsatten]

Well the CCC was a waste of time, 6 views no comments over 4 days!
never mind, worth a try!
