Few muscle cars carry the same reputation as the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, and genuine examples remain highly sought after by collectors. This eBay listing offers one such car, a real 1969 Camaro Z/28 identified by its X77 trim tag code, though it’s being offered as a full restoration project.
According to the seller, this Camaro is a genuine Z/28 finished originally in Fathom Green with a Medium Green interior. The trim tag confirms the X77 designation, identifying it as a Z/28 without additional trim packages. The tag also indicates a build date in the third week of May at Chevrolet’s Norwood assembly plant. The VIN, beginning with 124379N, confirms the car as a V8 Camaro coupe built in Norwood. The listing states that the car comes with a clean Tennessee title that matches the vehicle, and the car reportedly has not been titled or registered since the 1980s.
This particular Z/28 is described as needing a complete restoration. The car is currently a body shell/roller and does not include its original engine, transmission, or factory 12-bolt rear axle. The seller notes that many of the original Z/28-specific components had already been removed before they acquired the vehicle.
Some body components currently on the car, including the front clip and trunk lid, are from another vehicle and were installed before the seller purchased it. The seller also notes that the car will require sheet metal work and replacement panels as part of the restoration process.
Despite the missing pieces and rust issues mentioned in the listing, the seller emphasizes that this remains a genuine Z/28 rather than a clone or tribute car. For many enthusiasts, that distinction alone makes the car a worthwhile project, as authentic Z/28 models continue to command strong interest within the Camaro collector community.
The vehicle rolls and steers but currently has no brakes, and the wheels installed are not the original YH-coded units. The car is being sold as-is, and the Z/28 emblem shown in the listing photos is not included in the sale.
For dedicated Camaro enthusiasts, projects like this often represent an opportunity to bring a genuine piece of muscle car history back to life. With its verified X77 Z/28 pedigree and documented Norwood production, this Camaro could serve as the starting point for a long-term restoration effort.
The real question is: if you had the chance to rebuild a genuine 1969 Z/28 from the ground up, would you take it on?
What was the name of the place that has this car again? 😂😆😂
The “watermarks” make it harder for scammers to use the pictures in a fake ad. It’s a common practice of vendors selling vintage pictures.

We have all seen “watermarks “ Steve. This vendor just seems overly obsessed with them.
