1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

Description

This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 balances originality with all-out Z-car desirability. That's why you have the original V8 power, four-on-the-floor, an interior loaded with options (including A/C), and all the right paperwork.

This is a real-deal Camaro Z/28, but what will really impress you is its overall level of preservation. The Camel Metallic paint is factory-correct, and it also shows the right signs of being factory original. It has the right aged-in quality where it looks like it has seen life, but it sustained with a good shine. In fact, the odometer is also believed to reflect the car's total actual mileage, which would put it at averaging less than 350 miles annually. So this kind of less use is really noticed in the way the panels line up and how the hood and trunk close with ease. More than just preservation, you want this because it's a Z/28. That means aggressive pieces, like the long hood scoop trim, wraparound chin spoiler, slotted fender vents, and full-width spoiler. And the full multi-tone gold stripe package has the ideal 1970s classic look while also highlighting all the best Z/28 elements all around the car. So this coupe has a cool sense of style, right down to the color-matched wheels.

The full black interior is also believed to be original, and its condition looks like a coupe that has seen little use. But more than just a time capsule, you're going to love this for how comfortable it is to drive. High-back bucket seats, an armrest center console, special corded NK4 steering wheel, and a full set of gauges are all part of this Z-car's driver-oriented setup. There's even cold-blowing factory air conditioning. And while you'll be impressed with how stock this car is, you also do have a few upgrades that make the right difference. The AM/FM/CD stereo w/USB input gives you proper modern driving music, and the oil pressure gauge is handy for those of us who drive our classics.

Even the engine bay continues this car's well-preserved originality. You're looking at the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. It has a ton of factory-style flair, right down to the blue on the block and decals around the motor. But a car like this is also meant to be a driver's machine. So you'll see it hasn't missed out on maintenance, and there are right components to keep this a strong-running Z-car. The V8 inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor, and the four-speed manual transmission gives you full control over this torque-filled powerhouse. Adding to this driver's attitude are features like power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, wide Tiger Paw tires, and sway bars front & rear.

The sale comes complete with the right paperwork, including the original window sticker, the reproduction buildsheet, maintenance records, and owner's manual. It all prove this is a highly original Camaro that with an appeal that goes well beyond a well-kept history. Call now!
