Thanks to the owner for allowing you to video this inspection. Also, the other two cars on the lifts. Definite garage art. Hopefully the owner is now healthy for many years to enjoy them.
Wonderful presentation Parker.....great car....coming from a great car owner and going to a new owner to preserve the Z 28, thanks Tony for allowing the video to be released......
Had my x33 rs z hi optioned since 1987 high optioned car Code 67 , 729 interior , BV axle 89000 miles , I wrote owner letters for 2 years & bought it at 17 with hard earned money & immediately “ worked in auto industry”. Bought nos gm e everything ❤it’ll go to my son , we’re meticulously restoring it now
Very nice car. I never thought these cars would be worth what they are worth now a days, I sort of wonder what kind of deal went on there, but none of my business. I had 4 69 Camaros in the 70s and 80s, so I just have to enjoy the memories. Thanks for the info and making the video!
glad you did this video. i have a 72 B 69 z28 x33 car. video helps alot on understanding the little details GM to separate the car packages from one another
Ever since my youth when I would browse through Hot Rod magazine this was my favorite looking car. Still think it's a shame Chevy didn't go more retro with their look when they brought the Camaro back. Especially the grilled headlights.
Parker, I have the exact car with a later build and white houndstooth interior. You pointed out a few interesting facts I was unaware of....thanks for that.
Looks legit and was if Jerry looked it over. He's got some parts to shag to square it up but that can be allot of fun. Doesn't appear to be original ride height. I personally don't pay up without endo scoping the the drive components. Some are gold mines some are land mines very well disguised. Put that flat hood back on😊
Hey Parker, the original sheet metal including the quarter is stamped with a Julian date code if you didn't know. It helps to check if they might have used full nos stuff or whether they are original
Hey Parker… I've only been following for about two weeks but I always try to comment, like, and share because I know it helps you creators. 🙏👍🏼👍🏼🙏 Anyhow, I just wanted to tell you… You're going places with this TH-cam channel. You are absolutely phenomenal at this and I'm so glad that my algorithm finally threw me in the right direction and turned me onto this channel a few weeks back. So keep the great content coming and I will continue to like, comment and share. Thanks. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
I grew up in Taunton, still own 2 houses there and live in a city about 25 minutes away. Lots of classic cars around here. I dated a girl in 2004 that had a 69 Camaro she paid 20K for. I'm glad I didn't keep her, but she should have kept the car; the values have gone up crazy!
Well done, you know your stuff! Did this car have still have the chambered exhaust? I tried to see when you raised the car (please use jack stands). Prayers for your total cancer recovery Tony.
I have a 1/24 scale Franklin Mint metal '69 Z/28 RS. Identical to this car. Color, vinyl top, interior. Now I'm wondering if this particular car was used to create the model from??
I owned a black and gold 69 Z/28 RS all matching numbers but mine had headers and a cut and narrowed 12 bolt possi 4.88 gear ratio how much would it be worth now any ideas never wrecked . Was
The 302 was a good, revving engine, but I think the lt1 350 is a little better, maybe not quite as much of a revver, but not as soggy down low as a 302. Also not available in 69. Nevertheless, it's an awesome car
had one just like this one except mine was a ss/rs with the ice treys on the hood back in the 70's these cars was cheap now as we all know not so cheap o well life goes on super nice car
That car is in for a for a hard life judging by the way it was driven for that short test drive, he didn’t slow down for an obvious hole or sharp dip in the road and the car made a noise that sounded like it bottomed out, not scraping the frame but flattened the suspension, plus he blasted around all corners like he’s driving a modern muscle car. He said it was going to be a family car? If he has a teenage son that likes to drive fast………it will be a parts car before long.
Are the rear quarter panels not stamped with the VIN under the weatherstripping? I think they should be stamped about midway up each side -- sometimes the weatherstripping and paint can make them difficult to see.

Parker, Great job on the Pre-Purchase Inspection, One Comment ! I have done Hundreds & Hundreds of PPI's and start at the front & work to the back, Try not to jump around, While in the engine bay inspect everything including the Harrison Rad while you are there ! As soon as you opened the hood we all knew it was a Flat Hood Zed and glad the original flat hood was there ! Keep Up the great work !

Saw a mint Z at an auction outside Tampa. stunning car, my Camaro nut /hoarder friend (multiple l78 and pace cars ) tells the seller This is the best restored Z I've seen.. Guy says aint restored Im original owner. and it was a factory rear disk brake car. couldnt get 18K for it in 13,, Imagine..
Need a very clear close up picture of the engine block pad. Remove the alternator. Then to verify that it has the original stamping, you would need to remove the passenger side cylinder head and inspect the entire deck surface. I could go on about a whole bunch of other discrepancies but what I really found funny was the prior owner mentioning that he wanted the car to go to someone who wont cut it up. Its already been cut up.😅
Pressure regulator valve: "the 69 NOR Z28's did not use it until mid-year, in the late January / early February timeframe." So it is correct for an early car NOT to have the regulator valve on the subframe..this is documented on CRG website.
Parker is a low key master at not only arranging these but leading the convo and interview scenario around, he's listening but also thinking how the pace and presentation for the video is, all seamless multitasking
Here's hoping Tony beats that damned cancer! What's up with the different rear bumperettes on the two Camaros? The Z28's had padding, while the SS/RS convertible's bumperettes had no padding! That Corvette would get a black, or perhaps white, vinyl covered Auxiliary Hard Top if it were mine - and either knock-offs or rally wheels.
@@fluxcapacitor9867 Ah, OK. I did wonder if there were actually deluxe ones offered, but assumed that there were probably not. I also wondered if someone took the vinyl off of the SS's guards... The '69 Z28 is one of the most perfect cars in all of automotive history! I'd also settle for a body-colored Auxiliary Top on that Corvette. 😁
This car still needs a lot of correct parts. Small stuff, but pricey. Not liking the quarter panel repair. Probably needs the whole suspension gone over.
From $6K to $73K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
VENTURING into the trading world without the help of a profesionals, trading and expecting profit is like turning water into wine you would need a miracle.
Very engaging right from the beginning These are tough and frankly I appreciate how you discuss global finances in such a delicate way. Business and investment
Experted Ann Marie strunk was my hope during the 'bear summer' last year. I did so many mistakes but also learned so much from it, and of course from Maria strunk.
Just sold a property in Alaska and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying it's ripe but Is this a time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $450k gains within months, I'm really just confused at this point.
Lets correct a couple of mistakes: ZL-2 hood was never the standard hood on any 1969 Z28 during the model year. The passenger outside mirror was never an option on a 1969 Camaro.
It’s technically 55 years old, although if we are really splitting hairs, the first generation concept Camaro called was first shown in 1964 is now 60 years old, that was developed in 1962!…LoL…🤣
Why isn’t the same trim model only a 1970 Z/28 RS or a 302 with the cross ram two 4 barrel carburetors would seem to be way more valuable seeing as in 1970 1/2 they changed the body style. I’m Mopar guy and it seems to me that almost any Z/28 from the first half of 1970 should be worth more than a 1969 model. Really nice from this area due to the amount of salt that is used around here, I live in Falmouth on Cape Cod which is about 30 miles from Taunton,MA.
@georgerohlinger5837 I see all kinds of Camaro now but back in the days of 69 I remember plain Camaro Rally Sport Camaro SS Camaro and the Z28 Camaro... Now says seems to be a lot more now than in the late 60s....
Thanks to the owner for allowing you to video this inspection. Also, the other two cars on the lifts. Definite garage art. Hopefully the owner is now healthy for many years to enjoy them.
Yeah I hope so too
Wonderful presentation Parker.....great car....coming from a great car owner and going to a new owner to preserve the Z 28, thanks Tony for allowing the video to be released......
Love to see Tony is a big chevy guy .. god bless you Tony. 69 camaro is one of my dream cars that I'll never have or drive .. your blessed for sure .
Had my x33 rs z hi optioned since 1987 high optioned car Code 67 , 729 interior , BV axle 89000 miles , I wrote owner letters for 2 years & bought it at 17 with hard earned money & immediately “ worked in auto industry”.

Great job ! Love this content and wish Tony all the best. My family is from Mass and he sounds like my uncle ! Looks like it’s going to a good home.
Thanks Parker always something to learn

Awesome! Lord be praised!

Cool,, had a friend that had a 69 RS/Z28 solid lift 302 cross ram, 4 sp, awesome car.
Parker, I have the exact car with a later build and white houndstooth interior. You pointed out a few interesting facts I was unaware of....thanks for that.
I had a blue one with white stripes for a short time.
Always had a soft spot for the 302 DZs.
That was awesome Parker, well done!
Great info, Parker. Learned something from a very knowledgeable younger than me fellow. Thx for sharing!
What an amazing video!! Such a cool history lesson 🙌🏻
Parker, great video. Please continue with this content!
Most likely a dealer ordered car. Most guys didn’t what a vinyl top, especially on a Z/28.
Going to take a deep pocket to buy that car
Not only did they get a great car, but they were treated to a particularly authentic "Boston" accent. Hope this guy gets better!
Thanks Parker !!! Awesome video man

Gold mines and land mines. Very true.

Another great, informative video. Sending good vibes to that guy, cancer is horrible..
May the Lord bless Tony .

Definitely early car, has the narrow rear spoiler.

Great 69 Z, who would have ordered a 67 big block Corvette with a powerglide? lol
Hey man, love the videos and love the cars that you review
Thank you for your support man!
I seen that driving around

Cowl hood was not available until late December 68. Also, not common from the factory. Only 10k cowl hoods for 250 k cars.
I would like to rebuild that alternator for you guys. You going to MCACN Parker?
Parker,
I have a 69 RS, nor sure if its a true RS. It is an X11. If you ever come to Maine again I would love your input on my car.
Thank you,
Brent
Great video. Great information. I had a 69 396 It came with a chrome shift knob. Is the z supposed to have one?
If the car has a console it would be a chrome ball...no console would have a white one with shift pattern..
Very nice car and that box has about $3500 worth of hard to find parts in it.
Saw a mint Z at an auction outside Tampa. stunning car, my Camaro nut /hoarder friend (multiple l78 and pace cars ) tells the seller This is the best restored Z I've seen.. Guy says aint restored Im original owner. and it was a factory rear disk brake car. couldnt get 18K for it in 13,, Imagine..
Have the correct date brake buster also

I have a 10 B 68 and no proportioning valve..
Have third week of January Z out of VN with no proportioning valve.
My first car in 1980 was a 69 RS convertible. I loved that car and wish badly I still had it. Great car. It was my Corvette killer.
Price please,some of us needs to sell our Z-s before bankruptcy😢😂
He's got another one right infront on the lift 😂

That Corvette would get a black, or perhaps white, vinyl covered Auxiliary Hard Top if it were mine - and either knock-offs or rally wheels.
All 69 Z’s came standard with taller deluxe rear guards
@@fluxcapacitor9867 Ah, OK. I did wonder if there were actually deluxe ones offered, but assumed that there were probably not. I also wondered if someone took the vinyl off of the SS's guards...
The '69 Z28 is one of the most perfect cars in all of automotive history!
I'd also settle for a body-colored Auxiliary Top on that Corvette. 😁
Should the exhaust manifolds have the pipe plugs, or is there a smog pump missing?
Smog pump is missing..
Excellent video. Very Informative and your presentation is so smooth and easy to follow. Can you divulge the agreed selling price? I subscribed today.
Would be nice to know what the car sold for.
Did the car come with the A.I.R. injection system? Exhaust manifolds seem plugged.
Great 👍👍
Awesome job, Parker 5 stars
most important option is the manual 4 speed trans! period! autos do not need to apply!
not a option, none came with automatic trans
Interesting note . . . $21,000 is what Jerry McNeish estimated its value to be in 2002.
The owner is not having a good time prayers for him and his family
Great story! Awesome work!💯
Very nice
Get well soon sir!! Great cars!!
Was it more than $36,847.94? That's the today equivalent of the $21,000 valuation from 2002.
This car still needs a lot of correct parts. Small stuff, but pricey. Not liking the quarter panel repair. Probably needs the whole suspension gone over.
Congratulations!
How much did he pay for it?
The valve cover are mounted in correct. The one on the left side is the right side valve and vise versa.
You sir… Are absolutely correct. Parker didn't mention it in the video but I wonder if he knows now? Parker?
@ar2043 thank you.👍💯🇵🇷
1st gen camaro on TH-cam....shocker!😖
From $6K to $73K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.

The fact that I got to learn and earn from her program is everything to me think about it, it's a win-win for both ways.
Nice car. The backup lights don't work
Lets correct a couple of mistakes: ZL-2 hood was never the standard hood on any 1969 Z28 during the model year. The passenger outside mirror was never an option on a 1969 Camaro.
driver class car or re restore it ,Z28 emblem in the grill is in wrong spot .qt's aren't that great ,car is ok but could use work . just my opinion.
How much 🤔
Not to rain on your parade but next time use jack stands or at least a block of wood u never know when something could happen enjoying ur videos
I was wincing at that time, and nice piece of rubber was the go.
Wow Parker,you know you’re shit!Nice ride.
I was born in 69 and let's not rush the age of the car be cause 60 is a long ways off if you know what I mean?
Kept saying 60 am thinking did I hear that right?
Great videos
This made me think of my 69 Camaro I had 307 3 speed . Thanks again.
It’s technically 55 years old, although if we are really splitting hairs, the first generation concept Camaro called was first shown in 1964 is now 60 years old, that was developed in 1962!…LoL…🤣

Never back in 69 I didn't hear of a RS Z28. Z28 didn't have hide away headlights.
Absolutely they did with the RS option! C'mon man, you never seen a RS Z28?
You obviously don’t know what you are talking about…
@georgerohlinger5837 I see all kinds of Camaro now but back in the days of 69 I remember plain Camaro Rally Sport Camaro SS Camaro and the Z28 Camaro... Now says seems to be a lot more now than in the late 60s....
Yeee Yeee
Nice car.
Damn. I live a couple towns away from Taunton. I wish I saw this. What an awesome car.
Me too, but I couldn't have bought it and I doubt it was cheap if the guy just bought it 3 years ago.
I gatta Caaaa😂
I have a correct date master cylinder for that for sale
Stering has to much play.
Could you turn ON closed captioning words , plese.
LOOK upon a true #8 COPO. (719).
That accent was so thick I had to mute it and just read the subtitles😂😂
Chevrolet garage
has the wrong shifter
