This post got me thinking and I looked at some of the documentation that Tony gave me when I bought the Camaro and found that the original owner had passed away in 1998 at 47 and was in the Army and was honorably discharged in 1972. So I suspect he ordered the car not to long after he was discharged since the car was delivered to him in May 1972.
Also, at looking at the bill of sale he traded in a 1970 Nova SS so I would think he was not in Vietnam during that time.
It is interesting the things you can find online with just a little bit on information.
I also have the name of the guy that Tony bought the car from in 2008 and that guy owned the car since at least May 2005. I also have the name of another owner of the car and found his address and going to mail him a picture of the car and a list of questions that I can hope he can answer...like is he the one that had the car painted. Fun stuff.
