Pictures from a car show last weekend:








































This completely stock 1970 SS Camaro with split front bumper has 1,167,000 miles on it and was purchased from the original owner in this condition. Numbers matching and even has the unrestored original seats/seat covers, dash and rear deck. Repainted original color and new carpet in 2008:
