Vehicle Description
To automotive purists, there's nothing better than a crisp muscle
car that's been lovingly restored to factory specifications. For
some, it's about preserving history. For others, it's about the
unique feel of classic motoring and escapism to simpler times.
Wrapping a stunning coat of Metallic Green 2-stage in subdued Rally
Stripes, this old school Z/28 is about as cool as collector cars
come. And if you're a discerning collector car enthusiast who's
looking for something that's familiar but a bit different, it's a
storied gem with unmatched polish!
CLASSIC GOOD LOOKS
Not far removed from a detailed, ground-up restoration, this crisp
F1 reflects a mesmerizing coat of Dark Metallic Green 2-stage. That
pigment is the perfect foundation for painted Tuxedo Black Rally
Stripes, which look natural capping Satin Black rockers. And today,
this awesome Chevy rolls as a spectacular piece of iconic American
muscle that's detailed to better-than-new standards.
Those standards begin with a bright silver grille, which hangs an
ornate Chevrolet bowtie between clear lights, a polished bumper and
a requisite D80 chin spoiler. Behind that grille, a Camaro-branded
header leads a flat hood, which reflects like-new glass that's
seated under mirrored wipers, bright drip rails and straight
stainless frames. At the sides of that hood, a clean profile plants
traditional Camaro badging amid a standard mirror, factory door
handles and stainless rocker trim. And at the back of that profile,
an attractive D80 deck spoiler shades tasteful taillights and a
guarded bumper.
CLASSIC POWER
Jump behind the wheel and you'll command 302 cubic inches of
date-correct small block that, according to its "MO" assembly
stamp, creates a correct 290 horsepower. At the top of that proven
mill, exclusive Cowl Plenum Induction funnels breeze in to a modern
Holley 4-barrel. That carb feeds an aluminum Winters intake, which
rides between polished valve covers and hot Double Hump heads.
Behind those covers, a traditional points distributor sequences
ignition through loomed 7mm Premium Silicone Magnetic Suppression
cables. Those wires snake around restored cast iron exhaust
manifolds. And at the front of those tubes, deep groove pulleys
spin a GM alternator next to correct smog equipment. Every bit as
clean as its exterior, this Camaro's satin engine bay provides an
excellent backdrop for the Chevy Orange engine. And many nice
details, like a fresh brake booster, a fresh radiator and a fresh
Delco Energizer battery topper complete the car's excellent
assembly.
ROAD-READY MUSCLE
When the small block jumps to life, it spins torque through a tough
Muncie 4-speed, which twists power to a correct, Z/28-spec axle
that's finished with a posi-traction differential and brutal, 4.10
gears. That Satin Black pumpkin pushes a factory frame, which rolls
on a fully rebuilt, factory-spec suspension. Turns come courtesy of
standard manual steering. At the corners of those bones, power
front disc and rear drum brakes bring everything to a tidy halt.
Aluminized pipes bark the V8's roar through an H-shaped crossover
and a correctly transverse muffler. And power meets the pavement
through stainless-trimmed Rallies, which turn 215/70R14 BF Goodrich
Radial T/As.
CONSERVATIVE CONTRAST
Between the doors you'll find a stylish Black interior that, in
addition to being one of the most popular and versatile themes for
timeless Detroit muscle, offers a subtle contrast to this Camaro's
rich paint. At the center of the car, Standard bench and bucket
seats provide comfy accommodations for four. In front of those
mitts, a stainless-trimmed dash hangs rebuilt telemetry, complete
with a 7,000 RPM Tick Tock Tachometer, next to a tasteful radio
delete. At the base of that dash, fade-free carpet frames a
wood-trimmed console that's finished with a polished Hurst shifter
and 4-pack accessory gauges. Opposite that console, Standard side
panels frame traditional door hardware. And the driver spins a
reproduction Chevrolet Rally Wheel.
In closing, this top-notch Camaro represents 'muscle motoring' at
its very finest, combining a vintage driving experience with
handsome looks, a clean restoration and excellent power. Hit the
backroads... Take it to the local cruise... Put it in a parade...
Whatever you elect to do with this cool Chevy, it's sure to be the
centerpiece of traffic, the focal point of your garage and, most
importantly, the car you most look forward to being seen in!
