Default Any of you have a 1970 Camaro?
After I buy the 2010 Camaro, and if I have extra cash, I will be getting a 1970 or 1971 Camaro. They are bad ass!!

This is my personal fav of all the styles. I don't know why, but the split bumper has always looked...classier..to me.

I think they look sleeker, meaner. I like this style better then any other camaro style, besides the 2010.

Not a split bumper, but mine's a 1971 SS 427. Started life as a SS 396, but converted to a .040" over 427 engine. I've had this one since 1973!

Thanks! Yes, got it when I was home on leave from the Air Force. Talked my dad into cosigning for me, as I had zero credit back then. Told him if he would cosign I would keep it "forever"! Of course I was lying through my teeth, but somehow it's still around.
I think I've kept it because I really loved the car when I first saw a 1970 Z28 that my best friend bought, and told myself I wanted one too. When I spotted the SS396 on a car lot, and found out it had a 427 swapped into it, I knew I really wanted it!
Well here it is 37 years later, and I still enjoy the car as much as I did in 1973!

Nice, so how much did it go for back then and what year did you sign the last check for it?
