Vehicle Description
A real-deal 1971 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 is a classic that will
always be in demand. But when it has been restored to be fun on the
street and look fantastic when you park it, then you know this is
the turn-key deal that won't stay with us long.
This is a sweet spot for many Camaro lovers. The first few years of
the 2nd generation cars carried a nice mixture of European fastback
lines with some bold American touches. The pinnacle of this was the
RS package that gave these pony cars some serious attitude. The
split-bumper, with the flexible Endura front end (a feature
borrowed from Pontiac), gave these Camaros a wide mouth that made
them look like they would eat anything that got in their way. This
kind of mean styling deserves a hotshot of newer red with glossy
clear coat. But more than just bold paintwork, the iconic black
Z/28 stripes match the front air dam and bring even more attention
to the full-width spoiler. In fact, this one looks fantastic right
down to the correct gunmetal gray Z/28 Mag wheels.
The interior features the correct high-backed bucket seats, which
debuted for the 1971 model year. Not only did these receive
attention during the restoration, but also there's a new center
console, too. So you truly have the best in speedy comfort. You
even have a nice upgrade to an AM/FM/CD stereo with iPod input.
Everything else looks like it came right from the factory,
including the NK4 sports steering wheel with rope-style grip, full
gauge panel with tach, and the Hurst sports shifter. Those who like
these kinds of details will also notice the original-style
houndstooth trunk mat and proper spare.
Under the hood are more great signs of investment and power. The
350 cubic-inch V8 looks great with the bold orange block, shiny
ribbed valve covers, and smooth air topper radiating within the
gloss black engine bay. You can tell by how everything looks fresh
and tidy that there was proper attention paid to this motor. It
inhales deeply through a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales
with authority as he headers feed the dual exhaust. A Muncie M21 is
stout enough to handle this muscle. The close-ratio four-speed
stick combined with the 3.73 Positraction rear end means you're
unbeatable off the line. Plus, with power steering, front disc
brakes, BF Goodrich T/As, and sway bars front & rear, this is a
great coupe to handle the streets.
This is the kind of Camaro that looks and feels like the best of
the 1970s, but it has been restored so someone new can come along
and enjoy it in modern times. Don't miss out on turn-key fun. Call
now!
