1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Restomod

Description

This 1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 is a real-deal Z-car that has been restored and upgraded with fuel-injected V8 power, a sharper suspension, four-on-the-floor, four-wheel disc brakes, and more. That makes for a muscle car dream machine. So when you can find one this slick and ready-to-rock, you know this deal might even be gone before you read all the details.

The striking first impression instantly tells everyone it's a serious street machine. The period correct Cortez Silver was an upgrade as part of the comprehensive restoration, and it has the kind of attention-grabbing gloss and shine that only a quality clearcoat application can give you. The wide grille of the Rally Sport look is always in demand. Plus, the split-bumper RS treatment is particularly important here, because 1973 was the final year this iconic look was offered. This is a real-deal Z-car that has more than just the correct Z/28 badging on the grille, fenders, and rear. From the wide air dam up front to the full-width rear spoiler, the car looks fast from any angle. The package would never look complete without with the black racing stripes. In fact, this one looks fantastic and correct, right down to the correct gunmetal gray Z/28 mag-style wheels.

Inside is a great mix of comfort and performance, and it all has the fresh look of a proper investment. The door panels, carpeting, headliner, dash, and armrest center console all have an attractively dark presentation. And the upholstery has the feeling of quality that makes it easy to spend all day in the well-bolstered driver's seat. This one sometimes shows off its upgraded nature in discrete ways, like the retro-style AM/FM digital tuner and provisions Vintage Air R134a air conditioning (likely needs a charge to blow cold again.) Other upgrades are a bit more obvious, like the full AutoMeter Sport-Comp II gauge package with large speedo and tach. Combine this with the grippy NK4 sports steering wheel and Hurst shifter, and you are ready for the upgrade under the hood.

They knew you'd be showing off the engine bay wherever you park, and so the full package has a tidy and shining presentation. At its heart, you'll see the Corvette script on the engine cover, and that's a hint at what's now powering this restomod. It's a fuel-injected 5.7-liter LT1 motor. And the upgraded air intake and X-pipe dual exhaust make breathing easier for this V8. Plus, it has the right supporting components, like the March chrome pulley kit, steel braided lines, thermostatically controlled electric fans, and a large aluminum radiator. This fires up and runs with the steadfast feeling you love in a fuel-injected powerhouse, and the four-speed manual transmission gives you control over it all. There have been some nice investments to make sure you can bring the power to the streets, too. It includes power steering, sway bars, QA1 adjustable coilovers front and rear, wide BF Goodrich T/A, and upgraded four-wheel disc brakes.

The sale comes with maintenance records and build receipts documenting thousands $$$$ spent during restoration. And you already know obtaining a turn-key example of an enhanced and celebrated muscle machine like this is a fleeting opportunity. So don't miss out, call today!
