My first car was a 70 RS Camaro with a nice built up 350 for the time. Put out close to 400 HP. Plenty of HP for a 17 year old. Sold it for a 69 Pace car. Sold tha tone also. Still wish I had both cars. Always liked the lines.

Nice addition

Reminds me of the Chevy ad.....picture of Camaro and Corvette....."WE'LL TAKE ON ANY TWO CARS IN THIS MAGAZINE!"

I knew it was a 73!

Had the corvette (69) BEFORE I bought the Camaros...as well!

great bookends.

+1...and that's a true split bumper. My good friend had one in high school, his Mom gave it to him when he turned 16! Wild times...

Very nice Camaro. Beautiful styling.

The Corvette & Camaro tend to complement each other.

Hi,

Thanks all, it was only a matter of time, before I had to get my 70-73 Z28/RS car !!
And it had to be a 75/75 car also, from the factory, so when this car came up, then it was a no brainer for me, I had to have it !

Thx,
John
