Brings back sweet memories. Bought one used in 1971. Only kept it for 5 months. Sold it fpr huge profit. If I would have kept it 7 months I sure would not have celebrated 77 years old. That is a full-fledged factory race car...
Haha, same thoughts with many cars I had in the 80s. Could never find one back then (started driving mid 80s) for under 8k By late 80s 30s was min price fora clean one or half decent restore.
I was a few years from driving age in 69' but a schoolmates brother had a brand new 69' SS Camaro 4 speed, white with orange rally stripes. I later bought a 69' Road Runner right out of HS in the mid 70s.
I owned one, bought it brand new I left off the A/C and power steering. which gained me about 5 to 10 extra horsepower. it was the fastest on the connecting highway. in my class.
agreed. I do not know where he got that info from, but it would be incorrect. There are plenty of real non RS Camaro's out there with the X33 on the cowl tag.

Throwout bearing and disk wont live long doing that. Surprise how many cars used to come into the shop where clutches would slip due to that. Many were less than 2 yrs old some people dont learn
He edited the warm up part out. And you are right Coolant isnt as important as the oil being up to temp is. Cringe seeing so many vids where they are WOT after less than a minute of driving or thermostat barely opened. Good way to spin bearings
@gordocarbo I sold my 69 Z/28 in the mid eighties to a friend who restored it. Some years later, he took me for a ride, never even got past 5 grand, what a total let down. I wish I had the money to buy it back.
This green on green beauty looks and sounds great!

These cars never get old, love it
When were you on the secondarys didnt hear it.
1969 was my favorite year! Can’t afford one now, so I have a 2010, closest I could get. Love it though, SS RS, 6.2 tweaked and tuned.

RR are awesome cars, love Mopars. Just couldnt afford to own one parts were expensive.
Beautiful car

No AC in any GM solid lifter engines back then
Is it still for sale an how much
300 customers 75 miles mostly dirt roads delivered the newspaper on a motor route driving a 1969 Camaro
X33 does not stand for RS option

It's NOT a 'sport' exhaust we hear....it's the factory CHAMBERED exhaust.
Brings back memories of my 69 Z28. Love the sound of solid lifters. Dude, stop resting your foot on the clutch.

I don't think it's very wise to drive it that hard right after a cold start and rev it that high.
they said they warm it up and then they made a jump to the part where it was already hot
He barely got on the gas the whole video.
