Hit this link and start drooling.

Oddly, it looks different than the cars of the same model that came out later that year. Am I wrong on this?

This isnt the first 1970 camaro.

This is:


I believe this is the EBAY fake from 2006.

I know where the #1 Van Nuys car is, and it isn't this.

not to call you out, but do you have any way of backing that up? i imagine mecum does some research on claims that the owners make for the cars they post.

I would say it probably is a real #1 Judging by the rest of the guys collection and that he has been a GM dealer for that long, why would he need to fake it, he obviously has (or had?) money enough.. I really like that Camaro, it looks good, like a vintage muscle car with those wheels and stance I think, if it is what it claims. Otherwise minitub it and fix it lol...

The "First" cars were all norwood cars, specifically cars 0N500001-0N5000017. These are refereed to as pilot cars. The car I pictured is the number one pilot car, and underwent a 18 year restoration after being purchased by a man named Dave from Smokey Yunick's estate. It has a long and interesting history.

I have no way to prove which one is real, but 3 cars exist with this VIN. The 2 that have sold in the last 5 years on EBAY(I think this is one of them) and the one I know about. This could be make four though.

Ill have to check at work and see if there's some way to see how many cars are registered with that VIN.
