Vehicle Description
Here's a great example of one of Chevy's prized 'modern' muscle
cars in all of its third-generation glory. This 1991 Chevrolet
Camaro RS runs and drives like a dream, having logged an unusually
low amount of miles for its age, and features a slick, all-original
presentation that we absolutely love. With a slick white-over-red
color combination, a strong V8 under the hood, and a top that goes
down, this 1-owner droptop Camaro is ready to impress.
To many enthusiasts, the RS is more appealing because of its
somewhat more subdued look compared to the extroverted Z/28 and
IROC variations. No stripes, a flat hood, and just a modest
ducktail spoiler out back, not a gaudy wing to match the usual
mullet behind the wheel. But it was still a V8 pony car, so you got
ground effects and a deep chin spoiler that make the Camaro look
long and low, especially in convertible form. That's original white
paint throughout, and aside from some minor signs of age that are
inevitable, it's in great condition considering the age. Original
paint also means original sheetmetal underneath, so you know this
one has never been wrecked or rusty while being conscientiously
cared for by the same owner since new. It's never left the warm and
sunny state of Texas and given how so many of these were 'rode hard
and put up wet' at the Jersey Shore, that's always good news. The
big doors close well and without that loose-sounding rattle that
plagues high-mileage cars, the chin spoiler hasn't been destroyed
on curbs and driveway aprons, the rockers haven't been blasted by
gravel, and there are zero Banana Boat Sun Tan lotion stains to be
found in the finish. Someone clearly loved this car.
The red cloth interior is pretty sophisticated looking and the
grippy buckets are a great place to have some fun. Again, this is
entirely original, so the preservation is pretty impressive, with
only minor comfort marks to report. Carpets are plush, the dash pad
hasn't been baked by the sun, and it looks like everything works
like it should. This particular RS is loaded with options,
including factory A/C that's been upgraded with new components,
power windows and locks, cruise control, and a tilt steering
column, and the factory gauges are joined by a trio of auxiliary
dials neatly installed in the center of the dash. The original
Delco AM/FM/Cassette stereo is still in place, as is the factory
center console that splits the front seats, and the rear seat area
look barely touched. The original black cloth convertible top still
seals up nicely and looks great when it's protecting the car from
the elements, and even though the plastic window seen better days,
it still folds neatly underneath the original black boot out
back.
Despite being one of the most modification-friendly powerplants
anywhere, an all-original, bone-stock and strong-running 5.0 liter
V8 sits between the shock towers in a well-organized engine
compartment. As the featured powerplant of this third generation
Camaro, it offers throttle body fuel injection in place of
preceding generations' carburetors for better all-weather starting
and dependability. The V8 teams with a 4-speed automatic 700r4
transmission whose overdrive gear makes driving at highway speeds a
low RPM affair, and it spins a more-than-capable 10-bolt rear end
that's assisted with a thick rear sway bar. Power brakes -with
discs up front - bring low-effort, fade resistant stops, while
power steering makes navigating easy. With its aerodynamic shape,
wide track and low profile, this Camaro is a strong corner carver
on its set of 16" stock wheels wrapped with 245/50/16 Firestone
tires.
Fast, fun, and affordable is what the Camaro has always been about.
