    New Member From SE Michigan with a '73 Z28

    After months of searching I just took ownership of a silver 1973 Camaro Z28. After a week of covered-transport time from Dallas to Michigan, and never seeing the Camaro with my own eyes, it finally arrived. I look forward to participating in local meets, events and cruises. As well as meeting alot of great F-body owners in the process. Glad to be here and hope to see some of you soon.

                            Welcome aboard Gary!

                            That's a great looking car! I hope you are happy with it's condition, and it had no "surprises" for you. My oldest brother would have loved that. He likes the early 2nd gen. cars with a 4 speed, but their values have made it hard to find what he wants within the price range he's looking for. I've screened a couple of cars up here for him, and we're still looking.

                            Hope to see you at the Meet & Greet.

                              Dyno Dave, I am happy with the condition. The previous owner was very honest in his assessment of the car, and actually a little over critical, which is fine by me. I found the most inventory of these second gens is with consignment shops, but the price they ask, and without direct access to the owner, makes it hard to negotiate and get the "real" history of a 40+ year old car.

                              Good luck to your brother and don't hesitate to broaden your search to the southern states. There are a lot of reputable inspectors with boots on the ground to help ensure no surprises.
