There are two excellent late 70's early 80's Corvette's in the yard at the tiny Chevy dealership on Maroondah Hwy Croydon... I tried to convince the wife to turn around and have a look... but we were going to her mothers.. and i got shut down.. One Orange.. the other an odd Lime Green

Unless you get an original one (which is rare as rocking horse sh*t) its just a kit car....... Hard to classify it as a muscle car really? more of a hot rod IMO

Well I came into the Melb CBD for work this weekend, and the way back I was stuck in traffic.. A trip that normally takes 15mins took me a little over an hour… Was a great day though (for Melbourne :p ) and I spotted a few nice cars in the traffic with me.. I was wishing I had a camera with me.. And then I remembered my phone…

I saw a blue 67/68 Camaro being followed by a poppy red 64/65 Mustang Coup (or at least I think it was that year, I'm not the best with the early ones).. that’s when I wish I had my camera… They turned off onto st.kilda road before I realised I had my phone.. (was there a car thing going on?)

I got a photo of a Valiant? And a later model Vette, sounded tough… don't think it was liking the traffic though..

Just the only one posting....I post mainly when I have time to snap a pic.

Some i've seen in the past few days.

I've seen 2 mid 60's mustang coupes a red one (north ringwood) and a pale metallic green with black vinyl roof (heathmont)

Also saw a very very nice blue 67 Camaro out my office window in Notting Hill....dropped the phone on my sales manager as I ran out the door but it was gone my time I got outside

Also saw a dumped 57 4 door pillarless belair with number plates crewsn last weekend in North Ringwood, sounded awesome and was way way low...

I know the guy with that 69 convertable. If it's the one i'm thinking of and i'm pretty sure it is, the guy recently finished a full resto on it for his misses to drive. It was parked in the pits at the nostalgia drags in Feb. Here's a pic of his matching big block coupe

Spotted: Oakleigh, North Rd, 5:50pm one black on black 2009-2010 (or whenever they have decided to release it) convertible camaro.
It had "left hand drive" in black letters on white background on the rear bumber, so I guess PBR is doing some testing/developing for it, and just to ruin your day.........will most likely crush it when they have finished with it, like they do with the Corvettes :(

They actually did a launch in Melb and Garth Tander was there with his 69....I never even new about it. Camaro club of Vic was invited along...just goes to show I need to sign up !

You have a club specifically for Camaros in Victoria!?:eek:
There must be a few getting around.
I think there are a few in Adelaide, but you hardly see them around (excpet at shows)
Weather has been less than average in Adelaide over the last week or 2 and I think this keeps the tidy US units off the road.

So true. Always exciting to see a first gen on the road in Adelaide. Mustangs are everywhere (except fastbacks). Seems to be heaps being built but not often you see one at all. Geez I cant wait to get on the road

Can't wait to get mine going too.
Mind you I have a couple of photos of 1 Gen Cmaros at work and people ask if it is a Mustang. (Wottha!)
I try not to be offended.
One more Camaro in Adelaide can't hurt, even if some people don't know what it is.

hey guys,

i had the pleasure of seeing these 2010 left hand drive camaro (both V8) coming out of GMH in port melbourne, i straight away took chase to get photo's of these beasts. we ended up over the bridge and in spotswood where the young guy in black Camaro was laying rubber. i was frothing at the mouth. it was abit hard to take photos and driving at the same time lol

So what is the deal with all of the LH drive cars running around.
Is this a field evaluation?
Will these cars be converted to RH drive?
Will RH drive come straight out of the factory or will they be converted here?

The Left-hand drive camaros we are seeing is all testing or field evaluation.
my understanding is that they will be released in 2012 in australia to be sold as a chevrolet Camaro and they will be right hand drive, but will not be sold at holdens car lots, GM have indicated they are going to be sold in uk and europe, so they might already have right hand drive Camaros made.

Incredible car that has had a heap of love (and cash) in it. Doesn't need a cent spent on it.

My car is getting done at River Road. Total of 10 Camaros under one roof there currently, including mine.

SORRY CANT SEE YA PHOTOS,A WORK THINGY!!
I NEW THERE WAS A SHOP IN BAYSWATER WITH A FEW CAMARO'S GETTIN WORK DONE.NOW I KNOW WHERE THE SHOP IS!!!!!
I TOLD HIM ABOUT THE WEBSITE BUT HE DIDN'T SEEMED TOO FUSSED ABOUT IT.

I had a look at that one when I was looking to buy... The 383 sounds sweet as. Albert, does he still have the beast that came in at the same time?

Aussiecamaroowner

17-05-2009, 11:50 PM

Birchy, if you are referring to the dark green big block Camaro, then yes he still has it. It is an original SS, but modified for strip duties. I think he is going to do some work to bring it back to a street car. He also has an awesome big block Chev truck that came in the same container that is reportedly a 10 sec car. That is also up for sale.

Paul, sorry mate, I posted up my photos before I realized you had posted yours. It is the same car mate. Did you spot mine whilst you were there?

North Road again, it pulled out of a side street right behind me just before I had to turn off..... had the camera with me today, but in my bag on the back seat, but managed to get it and take a "pot luck" shot over my shoulder but it was all blurry, so I pulled over as soon as I turned the corner and snapped a pic as it went thru the intersection
