[The87wing]

might wanna restore that hard- starting motor

[MrSonyDelight]

On Muscle Car they did a build up of this car -not this one specifically-

[savator408]

wow that's a original color? that's awesome

[popeye646]

Nice car !!!

[chaserr120]

I WANT TO GO TO THAT SHOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 70 1/2? I never heard of that, I want that Camaro, trade you my 75 for it =] jk lol I wouldn't do it cause she's my first.

[cadillacman028]

ive been looking for a 70-73 camaro with a 6 cyl. i think they were the berlinettas maybe?? or the S E model not sure, but my uncle had one that was off white 250 in line 6 ,and it had only power steering and an automatic...id love to have one close to that if not the same

[bagrat22]

How can the build sheet say this is a real Z? I've posted on this video before and Fleming's better do some research. NO AIR CONDITIONING offered on a '70 Z. Not until 1973. Vents on dash a dead giveaway. And of course, no radials. (nice upgrade, but not correct). Buyers beware.

[hcobb1215]

Jeff I have a 70 1/2 Z28 All matching Number car. Had for 35 years. Red Black Stripes. 350 LT-1. 400 Trans. Has been in climate controlled garage since 1978. Showed for many years. Thinking about selling (615-439-0438) Truly All Matching number Car....

[MangoSmoothie16]

I thought it was cool. Then I saw the shifter. It wasnt a 4sp

[honda350r]

@MangoSmoothie16 Agreed

[hanse81]

Funny how the "TopGear" tune runs in the background.

[bagrat22]

AC vents on dash. Not offered on Z28. Car is misrepresented.

[applemanjohn]

@bagrat22 Sorry dude it did have the vents. My brother had this exact green Z28 and it had the vents but not AC. His had a Z28 emblem on the steering wheel and not the RS emblem.

[SpookyCrab]

I want this car. Now.

[XxXcrazylilbearXxX]

OMG Thank you man That sound that car made MAN! it made my day! I have that exact car that im going to restore in a couple of months i Tell you how it comes out!

[carsbyjeff]

@XxXcrazylilbearXxX

Great!

[69camaroZR]

the only thing that sux about cars like that is there so perfect u cant always drive it like a maniac but one year we will restore our 69 bac to perfect for now its not perfect but its still a freakin awesome car

[02DZ]

Sounds like someone put a pussy cam it. That thing is supposed to rumble!

[1970CamaroZ]

@02DZ Well if someone put a different Cam in it. It wouldn't be a correct car then. My '70 Z/28 sounds exactly like that and its Numbers Matching with the 4 Speed M21 Manual.

[bittercottoncandy]

Top Gear theme song in the background

[Necroman666]

look at those details and grill.

there should be a small production of models like these. just for a selected group of buyers

[Coolkid89383]

@1661biwig55

Dude this is a Z28/RS not a Z28

[RockaChrillie]

Whats the estimate prices on one of these? i would LOVE to own one someday!

[DJSLYHARDSTYLE]

there really is some beautiful metal in that garage, geez i would have loved to be there, and is that the top gear theme in the background ha ha,

and what a sound !!!!!!

[mrceebees14]

Great Car, but the sound system ofcourse......um, would be an issue.

And whoever thought to make that type of car automatic in 1970 should be shot.

[Zippersaurus1337]

I'm sorry, but no American car have corner ability!

[BIG468RAT]

and once again, no 70 1/2 Camaros exist. You build great cars but fail to realize there never was a 701/2 Camaro. I suppose you will remove my comments again. Whatever

[paleface6167]

When Chevrolet changed the body style 1970 from the 1969 style it took them 6 months longer than a normal switch. That's why it is called a 701/2. Because it didn't hit the showroom floor until 1/2 the year was over.

[Coolkid89383]

@BIG468RAT

Wrong mr. bigrat

I have a '70 1/2 Z28 and i can tell because it has the correct spoiler from a '69 and here i will go get the book it says Spoiler 22.60 (another spoiler was offered marking that your Camaro is a '70 1/2.)

I have gotten my information from The Camaro Whitebook.

Books dont lie, now you you just have

[BIG468RAT]

@Coolkid89383 There were NO 1970 1/2 camaros ever buildt. They came out late in the year and some people insist on calling them 70 1/2. Some people actually think there are 1970 AND 19701/2 camaros. There isn't. They are all buidt/registered as 1970 year models. I don't care what your white book says. Your title says 1970 NOT 19701/2. Could care less what spoiler you put on it. Does your white book say anything about a seperate year camaro being made ? No it does not.

[Coolkid89383]

@BIG468RAT

Actually yes it does because it was MADE BY CHEVROLET

[Coolkid89383]

@BIG468RAT

Just because they are registered as '70 Models doesn't mean they are true '70s. Here let me go read it again. Heres one of the 1970 Facts. As production of Z28s continued they started to put a different spoiler on it. if you look at some '70 Camaros you will see they have different spoilers on some. Thats because the orginal owner chose a '69 COPO spoiler option that they offered

[kids6skate6krew6]

hey jeff..

i got done primering my 72 rs camaro and i want to ask you a question

how much did that citrus green paint cost you.

[carsbyjeff]

Sorry, not sure. It was painted when we got it.

Cool Color!

[19mg94]

ours is just like this but ours has the green insides 4 speed

u shoud have put the right dash back in it 70 z28 didnt have air

[GODZILLAMANASS]

The RS/Z28 did

[BottleCapsound]

ooh man ....i want this car

[Missjewish]

this guy is very correct

[carsbyjeff]

Thanks! Sometimes I get it right...

Jeff

[803brando]

that green just pops! might have to paint my 72 SS that color maybe a little more metallic.

[Stangwlf]

I bought this car in 1976 same color kept it till 1988 and sold it back to person I bought it from 12 years earlier. Is this one still for sale?

[carsbyjeff]

No, She's long gone...

Jeff

[stuntman229]

great car!

[SmoootHman]

ha ha ha ''gee ar ate''.

[wqpeb]

OBAMA ! Get back in da Whitehouse !

Yer not done yet...gotta wait till McCain takes over....

[DontTread0nMe1776]

Daddy like!

[ou892]

To truly complete the RS option, it should have an outer and inner ring of chrome on each tail light. Extra chrome on the tail light would have also been available as part of the "style trim" option if ordered.

[MrMBAlexander]

The car looks very nice. As most people noted, a/c was not offered in Z28's in 1970 1970 was the first year the automatic (M40) was offered in a Z28,  Approximately 1 in 6 were automatics in 1970 making them very desireable. 1970 Z28 tachometers are 0 to 8,000 rpm. The a/c vents are a turn off and way wrong. If it's an early 70Z the Z will be missing on the id tag. A sweet car but I sure wish we could have got a shot of the sun visors and gas pedal tho.

[matthewt2010]

I'd rather have a 4-speed

[domesticbuilt]

my dad had a 68 and it was automatic ... first year for automatic (1970) ? either way beautiful car !

[homeskillet1962]

Automatic trannys were available from day 1 in '67. I have a '68 with the 327 and powerglide(2 spd. automatic) Both came with the car originally.

[loldecepticonlol]

He means this was the first year for an automatic with the Z/28 option. Up until the '70 model year all Z's were 4 speeds.

[Coolkid89383]

@domesticbuilt

Well your dad probably had a RS or SS or the RS/SS because until 1970 the Camaro Z28 came with a turbo hydra-matic automatic transmission that could be ordered

[FletchMacPimmel]

beautiful 1970 z28 camaro & allman brothers band...i love america...

[VvMrMustanggvV]

oh god that interior is beautiful!

[Garyrroberton]

Thats a Beauty Second Gen. Anybody know the name of the song playing in the background of this clip ?

[heavysoul67]

The song is "Jessica" by The Allman Brothers Band and like the car it too is a CLASSIC!

[BigBishop1]

split bumper is the rally sport option

[microminiskirt]

How much did it sell for and when?

[carsbyjeff]

Around 30k a year ago...

[microminiskirt]

Wow! In 1970 didn't that Z/28 cost about $5,000 brand new?

That would be 6 times the amount of appreciation.

[carsbyjeff]

Many restored muscle cars go for 10 times original cost...

[microminiskirt]

Yes I remember when Corvettes were under 10,000 for the 68 to 73 and also some 63-67 Corvettes.

Shelby Mustangs were like 4,500 to 5,500. The gold old days are gone.

[grn68rt]

Yes, and the minimum wage was $1.45/hr.

[microminiskirt]

How much? Does this have the 350 LT-1 Corvette engine in it?

[carsbyjeff]

Yes, but it Sold...

[Psweigert]

I had one of these stolen back in 1978....I loved that car....

[georgebushfkd]

Jeff, why are they called 'split bumper" cars??

[camaro88iroc]

it has a split bumper

[judgegixxer]

Notice there is only little bumpers on eachside of grille with none in front of grill. Others had bumper all the way across the front.

[Ruler2009]

Those are not the correct tires. BFG Radial T/As weren't available in 1970.5.

[arytonjames]

show cars are gay. drive the S.O.B.

[ChetCampbell72]

Never really liked the body of the Z28, especially the 1980's versions which I thought were tacky looking.

But this one is beautiful. Only a special type of Car could make a Green like that look good.

[hagiggle]

Z28 are awseome no matter what year

[logo10heli]

70 1/2 Z-28 DID have split front bumper and console automatic.

[HaranBanjo1975]

GREAT CAR!

[carsbyjeff]

Thanks and Sold!!

[christopherrnoto]

I call BS on this car! I bought one of these off a Chevy dlr showroom in 1970, and I know. Things wrong: auto trans, not available; 7000rpm tach, should go to 8000 on a real Z/28; headers, car came with iron manifold; 8-track tape, only AM radio was available. Nice music, though, Allman Brothers. Nice try, fellas.

[carsbyjeff]

Yes, Iwas sceptical about the automatic too. We had the original factory build sheet that proved it to be a genuine Z28 with Turbo 400 trans and Ralley Sport option. You are right about the radio and I'm not sure about the tach.

Thanks.

[GS963]

2 things jump out at me. One the TACH is NOT a original z/28. THe red line on a 1970z/28 was 6500rpm. The radio seems to be aftermarket. BUT the car is NICE.

[fcatf6]

Don't know where you're getting your info. '68 & '69 Z/28s were 4 spped only. The 2nd gen Camaro Z/28 was the first avavilable with automatic (taken from "The Great Camaro" By Michael Lamm, page 74), but I knew that without the book.

[christopherrnoto]

OK, apology time. I'm clearly wrong about the auto trans, which other sites also mention as "first available in 1970". Honest mistake, I'd never seen a real 1970 Z/28 with an automatic, and knew that air conditioning was unavailable in that year.

I come by my info honestly, as I bought a 1970 Z/28, Hugger Orange, brand new, for $3,995 plus tax and tags, that year. I dearly loved that car, and have stayed in touch with the "community" since then.

All the best. No harm meant.

[BizbyJeff]

No problem!!

[F6HemiCharger]

Love the sound just too bad Mopars were made (I would not have fallen in love with them).

[carsbyjeff]

Funny, nice response...

[automobileman08]

The song at the begenning in the backround sounds like the top gear intro song. Awesome camaro Great color!

[76280zguy]

Took a while for it to fire up. Very nice car, that is a great style of Camaro.

[carsbyjeff]

Thanks!

[Tallerico500]

Car looks great, btw love the 8-track

[carsbyjeff]

Thanks, me too!

[Timpleya]

How much doo u want for this car?

[carsbyjeff]

Might be sold. Call 301-816-1000!

[Timpleya]

How much do u think i will be able to get for my Pontiac GTO 1967? Its very nice and has around 500 HP...Chrome motor....just an aprox...u r the expert

[harkz28]

The 1970 Z28 did not come with A/C due to the high reving LT 1 350. There are A/C ducts in your dash??

[microminiskirt]

So it is probably the same as the Corvette which didn't start putting air in LT-1's until 1972 which was the only year of the LT-1 with air cond.

Did the Z/28 LT-1 or even Corvette LT-1 come only in 4 spd. manuals?

[harkz28]

There were very few automatic 1970rsz28.

There were many more 4 speeds but NO Air Condition. The dash is wrong if it is a real Z!!!

[microminiskirt]

That's interesting if any 1970 1/2 Z/28 had an automatic as the 70 LT-1 Corvette only came in 4 spd. with no Air cond till 1972 with air.

[youdragon]

1970 1/2 what does that mean?

[carsbyjeff]

It was a mid year release from Chevrolet!

[fcatf6]

Actually, the early 1970 model Camaros were carryovers from 1969, but actually sold & titled as 1970 models. The 70 1/2 models were introduced on 2/26/70 (2nd gen Firebirds were introduced the same day)
