Vehicle Description
Camaro Hugger Z/28, #32 of only 90 manufactured in 1980. These cars
were designed with the help of Bill Mitchell, of GM Special Vehicle
Development. These special Z/28s were built to commemorate the
24-Hours of Daytona. They came with Hugger Orange paint, special
wheels and tires, improved gearing, special handling packages, KONI
shocks, front spoilers, special steering wheel and appearance
enhancements. This car was purchased in original condition and
today retains almost all of its original paint. It was then taken
to a high level of restoration, along with a few small driver
improvements. The 350ci engine remains in stock condition, with the
addition of ceramic-coated Patriot headers. A B&M standard
lock-out shifter operates the original GM TH350 automatic
transmission. New KONI Classic shocks replaced the older units. A
bronze anodized MOMO steering wheel replaces the black Hugger GM
wheel. The original Hugger fascia fog lights were replaced with new
Hella amber lights. The interior was improved to like-new stock
condition with the addition of a RetroSound Bluetooth stereo/phone
system. The car currently rides on 15x8" Torq Thrust wheels and
BFGoodrich T/A radial tires. It comes with upgraded original parts,
including the original wheels, shifter, exhaust manifolds, steering
wheel and radio, and has lots of documentation and receipts,
pictures and Build Sheets. It has been kept in a climate-controlled
collection and has 30,070 original miles (the title reads mileage
exempt). A select offering from the Chip Watkins Collection.
