Inline six base model convertible?!? That's an interesting combination.
Great color. Reminds me of my '63 Lark - Champagne Gold
Wow. Nice.

The license plate sort implies that not base but has the RS option which probably didn't require a V8.
It's a 383 stroker with a 4speed Muncie
doing a shakedown on Angeles crest
singer p car boys up here today .
wife picked the color
I'm not a Camaro guy at all, but it's a nice looking car. The badging makes it a nice sleeper. I love sleepers. I dig the color because it's not the typical obnoxiously bright color that hot rodders tend to pick for their cars. I appreciate a more subdued, mature hue.

Thank you. I am not a Camaro guy either. Wifes build really. Shes the mature one. I prefer a purple roadrunner or lime green hemi
I want to sell and buy a 18-20 foot caddy. But wife likes this more
after the shakedown - see if anything wrong - then she can drive it
the willwood brakes are getting a nice workout
Cars too loud. Embarrassingly so. Clutch is way too much of a workout
Wow that is beautiful. You really went with a subtle approach. I sold a restomod 69 vert not that long ago. Loved it.
You're out and about in that weather and the top isn't down?
Beautiful car, btw. Is that a factory color choice or was it pulled from another car?

1969 Rallye Sport Camaros have the hidden headlights.
Major Scoreboard on this!!!!!! .......your wife has great taste in colors, will you be providing more details?
That's a great looking 1st gen F body. And I too really like the color. The black conv top and rims really set that color off. Nice work all-the-way around.

Sorry never drive with top down, or windows open. Yes I am weird. We have same weather 350 days of the year, pretty boring actually.
Color is GM Olympic Gold

Everybody has their foibles. No skin off my nose. I'm the opposite, I think I've had the top up on my car maybe 15 times in the last 20 years!
It's a beautiful color.
In reply to iansane :
17 convertibles since 1993 (miata, s2000, t tops etc), never have driven with top down. Not my thing 
Very subtle. So nice to see a 69 Camaro without red paint, white stripes, and a rear spoiler. I like it a lot. One of the English teachers at my HS had a black on black 68 convertible i6/3MT with no power options.
One of the best colors I've seen in a Camaro!
Dig the steelies--overall color choices are perfect!
