To the 1972 Camaro. Guy came this morning to look it over, and will be coming to pick it up either tomorrow or Tuesday.

I think Im still in shock a bit since its a pretty quick sale. Guy seemed like a real cool dude, owns a body shop some where in PA and has been looking for a RS car for a while. He had to sell his 15 years ago to help buy his house. Im glad that its going to a good home, and someone that can really do the stuff it needs to make it perfect.
Im happy but I know its a piece of my family that I have sold, so it hurts in that aspect. With both my father and mother moving probably in the next year, trying to find housing for the car was gunna be rough. Its gunna be hard to just get the 87 a place to live while I do the swap.
Oh well...I took it for a ride yesterday, and it drove so nice. Started right up today first thing at 730am.
Off to the bank to deposit the money, and then off to my little brothers lacrosse game.

I miss quite a few of my old cars but the sale always ends up leading to the next one so it works out well. It's gonna be tough selling the 2000 SS especially with only 56K miles on it, but the money pit is calling! :lol:

I hope they keep it the same color. Looks good and is more unique than every red or black SS or Z28 out there.

Sucks to see it go I guess, but you can focus on the 87 now. Good stuff.

In NY, hopefully.
Now I have to relocate the 87 to prep it for the swap.

What made you sell the '72, if you don't mind me asking?

BigAls87Z28

Several factors, mostly tied to the ability to take care of and maintain the vehicle on top of the 87.
