Am I nutz? What would you do?

[88ZNX]

I hate to admit, but I have a really bad itch for a 1969 Camaro. I do like my Limited, but I like a 69 so much more. I would be looking for one as nice and clean as my Limited, a beautiful turn-key cruiser. They arent getting any cheaper and seems like the desireable ones are $20k + in price. I can always put a LC2 in it Only room in the garage for 1 toy, What would you guys do?

Do it. It is your life.......:biggrin:

 

[JOHNDEEREGN]

I had the same itch but for a 71 T/A 455 H.O. 4 speed and sold my low mile 87 GN to get it.

Was cool for about 2 weekends then I wanted the Buick back...

Sold the TA and have owned 4 GN's since and 1 TTA....

I cant scratch your itch but know what I would do LOL:biggrin:

[88ZNX]

Holy cow. THAT is toooo sweeeet!!

 

[RobsIron]

I'm more of a Chevelle guy and have owned a few '69 Camaros and love them, but me personally just think the 67-68's are the best.

They look cleaner and sleeker. Not as 'bulbous' as the '69.

My '68 is a plain jane. No spoiler..no gauge package and dog dish hubcaps.

Just the SS package with a big block, 4 speed and 12 bolt 3.73 posi.

The silver is sweet though.

Buicks are fun but lack a certain something that those older cars have, go for it if you want to.

 

[88ZNX]

You are so right. I had my 68 SS for about 9 years, and my 69 about a year.

 

[87granny]

I say keep the Limited too nice to part with i know it's just a car and the 69 SS are sweet but if you get sick of the Camaro can you replace what you have now cause finding a nice Limited isn't that easy anymore and with that color just my 2 cents

Awesome! Here's my daily driver Chevelle in 1986. 11 to 1's, Rockcrusher and 4.56 gears driven 50 mile round trip everyday to work.

Also, My '69 DZ 302.

Now that is COOL! Time to change the signature.

I, too, am a first gen F-Body fan. Way more than this poor broke ba$tard has but cool none the less.

Ive had my share of vintage Camaros,Nova's, Chevelles and Corvettes. I bought a 68 Camaro SS396 375 HP 4 Speed brand new. I loved that car. Been a few years since I sold it. I was thinking of selling my 87T and getting an older ride last year. That was before I had a ride in my buddies 70 Chevelle SS454 LS6 car last Summer. It reminded me of why I moved on in the first place. Beautiful car, but hated the squeaks and usual rattles. Not to mention the poor brakes and harsh ride. I guess I am just used to the Buick performance and comforts. I also agree, if you gotta have one, go for it. Life is short.

Nice! Wow, your an original owner that sold just a few years ago?

I had a 67 RS that looked just like yours, but had white deluxe interior and a 210hp 327 and a p glide. It was 1 0f 210 that had power windows with a fold down rear seat. Sold it to buy my first house in 1989.

Here's my Chevelle now.

 

[WLDWST]

I sold the 68 in 1980. So I guess it was more than a few years ago. lol. Sure can't argue with the body styles. They were beautiful cars back then. I am an old guy now, but I am glad I had a chance to own and drive my share of them. That Black Chevelle is just stunning.
