Figured I would share! my story my parents were in Seattle in march of 83 looking for a car. they came across a 82 Berlinetta but as they were filling out paper work a car hauler drove into the dealer with a red 83 z28. it caught there eye! needles to say they drove it home. in 1985 they moved to Minnesota and it sat in the garage for most its life.in October 88 my parents decided to go to the casino in the camaro with my mother being almost 9 months pregnant with me. that night she went into labor and the next day I arrived into the world. after a 3 day visit I rode home from the hospital in the back seat of this camaro. in early 00s the transmission went out and sat till 3 months ago when I purchased it from my mother with 63k original miles. after a transmission rebuild and a little tinkering it runs like brand new and here I am being a forum junkie I'll be posting pictures soon

 

Ok, good story, but you really need to use punctuation. It's hard to read one long run-on sentence. That being said, I'm a sucker for sentimental journeys and I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures.

 

Sorry doing this on my phone. Forgot my laptop at work I'll fix it tomorrow

 

Sounds like you were meant to have that car, cant want to see it

 

Awesome story. Like to see some pics of it.

 

well here is a few pictures. the paint is a little faded but i have already started the body work. had to patch in some sheet metal on the 1/4 panel due to a small spot of rust

Note: this car was so original it still had the factory spark plugs,rotor,cap,wires,and even air filter

 

Nice car, i would get rid of the side mounted front plate

 

Not my doing and Idaho law is you have to have a front plate but after body work it will be gone
