Not original with an automatic in it. The slushbox was NOT an option on the first gen z/28. ALL DZ 302's came from the factory with 4 speed manual transmissions.
Pretty cool car but certainly not all that "rare". There were over 20,000 Z28 Camaros built in 1969 so roughly 1 in 8 1969 Camaros was a DZ302 car. I almost threw up in my mouth a little when I saw the air cleaners sticking through the hacked hood and a 302 Camaro with no 4-speed is like a day without sunshine, but to each his own.
I mean believe it if you want (i'm getting this from wikipedia...) there were only 602 z28 sold (another hundred being "Indianapolis Pace Car replicas"). apparently it wasn't advertised very much, so not many new about it and therefore not many bought one.
@@rya3190 If you really read the Wikipedia post, or better yet the actual production numbers from Chevrolet, during the 1st generation, 1967-1969, of Camaros there were closer to 30,000 produced. The actual numbers are as follows: 1967 - 602, 1968 - around 7,200 and 1969 - over 20,000 due to the extended model year and late introduction of the 1970 2nd generation which was equipped with the LT1 350/360 HP engine. Yes the Z/28 wasn't listed as a model, instead it was an option for the Camaro. It was RPO Z28 special performance option that consisted of the 302 cubic inch engine, special springs and suspension, front disc brakes, special 15" wheels and tires and an assortment of other goodies. You couldn't get AC with this and a few other options as well. You could however order the Z22, Rally Sport option with it, you know the hidden headlight set up.
Vern Hoke huh, alright. those options would be great to have. Is it stated why production stopped, especially since they where using off the shelf parts?
@@ztwntyn8 Try again. I bought a '69 Boss 302 Mustang new from TASCA Ford in RI. I still have it and it ate '67-'69 Z/28 Camaro's for snacks. NHRA even put the Boss 302 Mustangs two classes higher than the Camaro Z/28 because the Boss 302 Mustang was quicker/faster.
Rick Totz, I personally know that's true because I bought a '69 Boss 302 new and I still have it. '67-'69 Camaro Z/28's were sloth-slow turds. Pure-stock Z/28, high 14's to low 15's. Boss 302 Mustang, low to mid 13's all day long. Mine still does 13.2 consistently and has done low 12's a few times.
Mark Donahue had great success in the trans am series in 68 & 69. The dz 302 would start making power around 3000 r.p.m., if memory serves me, and was one hell of a rush to drive.
@@walkersmithson5096 REALLY? No stock DZ 302 Z/28 Camaro ever beat my '69 Boss 302 Mustang and I bought it new. FYI, NHRA put the Boss 302 Mustang two classes higher than the '67-'69 Camaro Z/28 cars for a reason. Stats/facts too difficult for you to comprehend?
I had a 1969 RS badged as a 350 I found out it wasn't when I rebuild it it had a 327 out of a 1965 Corvette I put headers a Melling cam and single plane intake with a 750 cfm Holley on it with a Munce 4 speed behind and yes it ran like a RAPED APE
That cummins powered minivan was badass!
I think he slapped some Z badges on a regular Camaro
Best short block combo ever.

Yep, i owned one in 1969. No auto transmission, only 302, and no air
Oh!.... wat a shame.....was gunna sell 4 of my kids just to sit in it.....but now that it's not origina. I'll sell the missus...l
Cry harder muncies are garbage compared to Super T10's Top Loaders and A833/NP440s
@drew nash You can tell it has an auto trans from the burnout.
Wow the 302 sounds so badass! Then you step on it and sounds even more badass!!
I wish I could find the 69 Camaro for the dz302 engine I have.
Sounds just like my high school parking lot in 1971.

All true 67-69 z28s came factory with the 302 no other engine was available those years

About 10 years ago 60's Z28 did donuts in nearby K Mart parking lot.
all Z/28's are 302 s and 4 speeds .
COMMANDER of the NORTH no
67 68 and 69 Yes .
COMMANDER of the NORTH I’m sorry I was confused you were right
@@commanderofthenorth3348 No not " ALL "
1970 engine code stamp CNB for hydromatic equipped 302 from September 69 to February of 70
None ever came from the factory with that dual quad intake installed.
Chevy did offer a OTC cross-ram dual quads option for the '67-'69 Camaro Z/28.
That car does not have a cross ram
@@reidmackay9703 I stated that it was an OTC option. No dual in-line quads were original from Chevy for a 302.
The 1969 Camero Z/28 302 was a wicked fast car, I loved them.
This car has an automatic NO 302 Z/28 had an auto NONE 4 speed ONLY all 3 years 67-69 all stick shift cars.
@Jack Rabbit • You are correct that is a clone and not a real 69 302 Z/28
Ford 302 would kick it’s ass
I doubt it bruh

Great Success? 1970, Ford Mustang Boss 302 ended his success for good.
@Alan Hunt • yes they were a total rush to drive as they were wicked fast.
@@1979bobhd This car is NOT a real 1969 Z/28 car and dual quads were not allowed in the T/A series.
@alanhunt2737, Penske and Donahue cheated with acid dipped bodies and fiberglass body parts which were also illegal.
Rare!? All 20,302 1969 Z/28's built had the 302 engine...
'67-'69 Z/28 cars were all noise and no go. My '69 Boss 302 Mustang ate them for snacks.
@@sergeantmasson3669no it didn’t dz 302 would eat up a boss

@@walkersmithson5096 The stats/facts prove otherwise. Enjoy your delusions.
@@sergeantmasson3669 on paper the dz 302 had 290 hp gm did this for insurance reasons the real number was closer to 360 hp on dyno
Maybe kinda rare to find the ORIGINAL 302. One miss-shift and rods are flying through your hood. But hey ! It's a great hot rod and chicks dig it !
its not a z i had a 69 z with a dz 302 for 17 years never made an automatic its still a nice car he ruined the hood
dual quads were an OTC option but that kit fit without modifying the hood.
The real 302 Z28’s had an option for Dual carburetors from the factory and General Motors threw the side pipes in the trunk for the dealer to install.
DZ302 BABY.....
Sloth-slow turds.
LOL... Original? The body maybe, except the hood.
Shaking like jello recording....
I thought Chevrolet had a 307 Ford Mustang 302
They did have a 307 but in 69 you. Could get the 302/ 290 hp
The dz302 was made from 67 to 69. The 307 came out mid year 69, and made an excellent boat anchor.
302 or 327 had what it took to embarrass anyone. Yes, anyone.
I had a 1969 RS badged as a 350 I found out it wasn't when I rebuild it it had a 327 out of a 1965 Corvette I put headers a Melling cam and single plane intake with a 750 cfm Holley on it with a Munce 4 speed behind and yes it ran like a RAPED APE
It's far from original!
